Unique to Fiberlink Matrix is the ability to purchase the unit in the exact configura-
tion your project requires. For example, a Fiberlink Matrix may be equipped with 9
optical inputs and 26 optical outputs.
For this reason, your Fiberlink Matrix may be Model OM32 but be equipped with less
than 32 inputs or outputs or may be Model OM16 but be equipped with less than
16 inputs or outputs.
To determine the Fiberlink Matrix model you have, please follow these simple rules:
If you have more than 16 inputs or outputs, you have Model OM32.
If you have 16 or less inputs and outputs, you have Model OM16.
Fiberlink® Matrix is not user/field upgradeable. However, input and output upgrades
are provided by the factory. Contact sales to learn more about upgrading your
Fiberlink® Matrix.
Fiberlink® Matrix may be purchased with or without the Front Panel Routing Keys.
When purchased without the Front Panel Routing Keys, some basic operational keys
will remain.
If your Fiberlink® Matrix does not have a full Front Panel, you can have your Fiberlink®
Matrix upgraded to include the full Front Panel by contacting sales.
Some operations described in this manual will only be available to you via remote
control procedures as described in the Remote Control & GUI Management manual
if your Matrix is not equipped with the full Front Panel.
