PowerCage 1600 Enclosure • Introduction 1
A PowerCage system can include any combination of PowerCage fiber optic (FOX) boards
and PowerCage twisted pair (MTP) boards mounted within the PowerCage enclosure.
Each optional board operates independently of the others to form an integrated system of
individual transmitters and receivers, rather than a matrixed system.
Features
PowerCage Enclosure and System
• Versatile input-output options — The PowerCage 1600 accommodates up to
16single-slot or 8 double-slot FOX fiber optic boards and MTP twisted pair boards.
• 3U, rack-mountable enclosure — The enclosure streamlines installation and
eliminates individual power supplies for each transmitter and receiver.
• Modular, field-upgradeable, and hot-swappable design — The transmitter and
receiver boards, and the primary and redundant power supplies, are hot-swappable,
thus allowing components to be added or replaced at any time without powering
down the system. This is useful for mission-critical applications that require continuous
operation.
• Efficient power management — Each PowerCage board can power down internal
components when no active signal is present, providing increased system efficiency.
• Optional redundant power supply — For continuous, mission-critical applications
where power reliability is crucial, add a redundant power supply, part number 70-784-01.
• Thermal management — The PowerCage enclosure provides channeled air flow to
each board for optimal cooling and reliable operation.
PowerCage FOX Fiber Optic Extender Boards
The fiber optic transmitter and receiver boards:
• Are available in singlemode or multimode versions.
• Support standard definition or high resolution video, HDMI, stereo audio, and RS-232
over a single fiber. They extend high resolution RGB, DVI-D, multi-rate SDI, standard
resolution component, S-video, or composite video extreme distances.
NOTE: Two fibers are needed when transmitting an HDCP signal.
• Deliver pixel-for-pixel image quality for high resolution video. All digital, zero compression
transmission ensures image quality over long distances at high resolutions.
• Provide alarm notification for fiber link loss and can be set up to trigger an external
control system for immediate notification when a fiber link has been lost.
• PowerCage FOX DVI, DVI Plus, and VGA Fiber Optic Extenders are compatible with
and can be mixed and matched with FOXBOX and FOX500 Series transmitters and
receivers for versatile system designs and configurations, including ultra-long distance
DVI-to-analog RGB and RGB-to-DVI conversion.

Mounting the Unit
The PowerCage enclosure can be mounted in a standard equipment rack before or after
installing transmitter and receiver boards. To rack mount the enclosure, follow the UL
guidelines and refer to the diagram in the “Rack Mounting” section.
UL Guidelines for Rack Mounting
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the
equipment in a rack.
1. Elevated operating ambient — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room
ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with
the maximum ambient temperature specified by the manufacturer [Tma = +32 to +122 °F
(0 to +50 °C)].
2. Reduced air flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
3. Mechanical loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should
be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than
direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).
Rack Mounting
CAUTION: Leave open space of at least 1U on the top, bottom, and sides of the
enclosure to allow adequate air circulation and prevent overheating. Do not cover the
vents or fans.
ATTENTION : Laissez un espace ouvert d’au moins 1U en haut, en bas, et sur les
côtés du boîtier afin de permettre une circulation de l’air suffisante et d’empêcher la
surchauffe. Ne pas couvrir les conduits ou les ventilateurs.
NOTE: Air flows through the enclosure from right to left, as viewed from the front panel.
To rack mount the enclosure:
1. Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the enclosure, as shown in figure 6. The
brackets can be attached at either the front or the back.
2. Fasten the brackets to the rack.

1 Board status LEDs (Comm, Power, Alarm) — There is one set of these LEDs for
each of the 16 rear panel slots that is available for boards. If a board is installed in the
identically-numbered slot, the LEDs light under the following circumstances:
COMM

POWER
ALARM
Alarm LED —
Lights when the receiving (Rx) fiber link on a PowerCage FOX board is
broken
or disconnected. This feature depends on the model of PowerCage board.
This LED is not used for PowerCage MTP boards.
Comm LED — Lights when the corresponding board is selected (see
d
, Comm
Select
button) and, for FOX boards, can be communicated with via the Config port (
e
).
Power LED — Lights when the corresponding board receives power.
NOTE: For a double-slot board, the status LEDs light only for the lower-numbered slot.

NOTES:
• When unit power is cycled (removed then restored), the serial connection
returns to the board in the lowest-numbered slot. A double-slot board
connects to the lower-numbered slot.
• The Comm LED lights for each installed, powered board as its slot is selected,
regardless of the type of board. However, RS-232 communication works
only with FOX boards; commands and queries cannot be sent to or passed
through the MTP boards.
5 Configuration and communication (Config) port — For RS-232 serial
communication with any installed board, connect a Windows-based PC or an RS-232
control system to this 2.5 mm mini stereo-style (tip-ring-sleeve) jack. Use the Extron
9-pin D to 2.5 mm stereo mini TRS RS-232 cable (part number 70-335-01, shown in
the following figure).

PowerCage 1600 Enclosure • Operation 13
RS-232 protocol varies depending on the board being communicated with, but all
boards accept this basic set of protocol:
• 9600 baud • 1 stop bit • no parity
• 8 data bits • no flow control
NOTE: This port allows serial communication to the boards only, not to the
enclosure, itself. The power supply and fan status LEDs provide feedback
about the condition of the enclosure.
6 Temperature status (Temp) LED — This LED lights when the unit as a whole is
operating at a dangerously high temperature (approximately 167 °F [75 °C]) and
equipment damage is imminent. If the Temp LED lights, power down the unit, ensure
adequate ventilation, and allow the PowerCage system to cool before restoring power.
Communicating with the Boards: Making an RS‑232 Connection
RS-232 communication works only with FOX boards; commands and queries cannot be
sent to or passed through the MTP boards. To communicate with and check some basic
information about individual installed transmitter or receiver boards, do the following:
1. Connect the serial port of a Windows-based PC or an
RS-232 control device to the front panel Config port
on the PowerCage system, and power on both
devices.
2. Set the serial connection as follows:
• 9600 baud • 1 stop bit • no parity
• 8 data bits • no flow control
3. Press the Comm Select button to select the desired
board to connect to the Config port. The Comm LED
for the selected board lights. With each button press,
the serial connection changes from one installed board
to the board installed in the next higher-numbered slot,as
shown in the following figure. (The next slot may not be
numbered contiguously with the previously selected board.)
