About this Guide
This guide contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the Extron
DMS 1600, DMS 2000, DMS 3200, and DMS 3600 Matrix Switchers (see
on the
next page). These customizable matrix switchers support DVI inputs and outputs and the
fiber optic outputs and inputs of Extron DFX transmitters and receivers. The switchers can
support multiple inputs and outputs, depending on the model:
•
DMS 1600 — up to 16 inputs and outputs
•
DMS 2000 — up to 20 inputs and outputs
•
DMS 3200 — up to 32 inputs and outputs
•
DMS 3600 — up to 36 inputs and outputs
NOTE: In this guide, “DMS matrix switcher” refers to any switcher model.
About the DMS Matrix Switchers
The DMS matrix switchers are configurable, modular matrix switchers that distribute a single
link of DVI (or HDMI with suitable adapters) digital video and DFX transmitter and receiver
outputs and inputs. The switchers are assembled from user-installed input and output (I/O)
boards. There are six I/O boards available:
•
4-input x 4-output DVI board
•
4-input x 4-output mutimode fiber optic board
•
4-input DVI board
•
4-input multimode fiber optic board
•
4-output DVI board
