Welcome!
Congratulations on your purchase of the AVFX-100-TR, Analog Video/Audio and
Serial I/O optical extender. This manual contains information that will assist you
in installing and operating the product.
Product Description
AVFX-100-TR offers integrated extension of Analog video, audio and RS-232
interface up to 2km (6,560feet) over single-mode or 300m (985feet, 50m) over
multi-mode. It maintains video signals up to UXGA (1600x1200) at 60Hz refresh
rate for PC. It is compatible with full DDC2B. RS232 serial interface offers
device-to-device and device-to-controller connections to build up control system
for A/V integration.
It is designed to multiplex and de-multiplex Analog video, analog audio DDC
command interface, HDCP and serial protocol so as to be linked over 4 LC
fibers. It gives benefits of all-glass fiber transmission medium, data security, long
distance extension up to 2km, easy plug-and-go installation and no RFI/EMI
effects. In addition, a non-trivial feature is that both of Single and Multimode
optical fibers are applicable.

System Requirements for Setup
Hardware requirements
You have a graphic controller card with a DVI port in your
Windows/Mac (Mac is option), or SUN system. It should support
the maximum graphic resolution feature of the display to be
connected.
In case of using a computer, no special memory size, CPU
speed and chipsets are required.
Proper initial trial of the entire platform with its application using
a short length copper cable is recommended prior to install with
the optical link.
Software requirements
No special needs, if the DVI graphic controller and display
peripheral are operational with the platform’s OS and
application.
AC/DC Power Adapter Technical Advisory
The power of AVFX-100-TR is designed to supply to each module of
Transmitter and Receiver modules by plugging to each of the power
plugs.
1-2 System Requirements for Setup

Installation
Important: Please use the installation procedure below. Improper or no
operation may result if the start-up sequence is not correctly followed.
Step 1
Carefully unpack the contents of the shipping group.
Step 2
With system power turned off, connect the Transmitter module to the VGA D-
sub of PC or other video source equipment by a VGA copper cable. If
necessary, connect the RS232 cable plugs to each D-sub 9-pin connector on
PC and Transmitter module. Also if you use a Local monitor, connect HD-15
VGA connector.
Step 3
Connect the Transmitter module to the audio source equipment by audio
cables such as Stereo Phone Jack.

1-3 Installation
Step 4
In the same way as above, connect the Receiver module to the display by
VGA copper cable and to the audio output equipments such as media
receiver or speaker by audio cable. The RS232 devices near the display can
be connected by RS232 copper cable also.
Figure 3 –Connection of Receiver Module
Step 5
Remove dust covers and connect two (2) duplex LC fibers to LC receptacles
of the Transmitter and Receiver modules, as shown in Fig. 4. Carefully ensure
the duplex LC connector is fully engaged.

1-4 Installation (continued)

Notice: Please DO NOT look directly into the LC receptacles of Uplink
module, while they are powered on, although they are regulated strictly
enough to operate under the Laser Class 1, classified by CDRH/FDA for eye
safety.
Step 6
Connect an AC/DC power adapter to both Transmitter and Receiver modules
as your availability of AC outlets. You can find power indication LED lit on in
the both modules.
Figure 5 –Connection of AC/DC Power Adapter
Step 7
PowerpON the PC and display or connected RS-232 devices. Ensure
“POWER”, “VIDEO”and “AUDIO”indication LED lit ON, representing secure
connection of LC duplex fibers and all kinds of cables. If the cables are
connected incorrectly, the LINK ERR LED lit on.
Tip 1: If any status LED is not ON normally after all installation as guided in
the above, we recommend you to push “RESET”button while all connections
are set and the Transmitter and Receiver modules are powered in.
Tip 2: Avoid “hot plugging” the Uplink as this is not recommended practice
with live digital voltages.
