VG-TX2-MM-HDMI-ISA | Two-port HDMI/DVI, audio & RS-232 transmitter with HDCP
Overview
The two-port Voyager HDMI transmitter accepts DVI or HDMI video through its HDMI input. HDCP, embedded HDMI audio and two-way (duplex) RS-232 are also supported. The VG-TX2-MM-HDMI-ISA can send 1920x1200 uncompressed video signals to 6,600 feet over multimode fiber.
One multimode fiber-optic module is included with the unit. A second module can also be ordered to cascade to a second Voyager transmitter (increasing distribution options).
Singlemode fiber optic modules supporting longer distances (4KM and 30KM) are available from Magenta.
A power supply is also included.

| Serial Interface |
RS232 standard serial interface. Reflects DCE pinout standard. Signals: TXD, RXD, RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR, DCD and RI. Speeds: 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400 Baud. Format: 8 data. 1 or 2 stop bits. no parity bit. Flow control: Hardware and software flow-control is available, configurable on/off. Connector: DB9-Female, w/4-40 standoffs. Note: Speed and data format are software-configurable via MAGui. The ISA hardware is capable hardware and software (Xon/Xoff) handshaking. However, this capability is not yet enabled by the firmware. Check with Magenta Research for applicable firmware updates. |
| Audio interface |
Discrete Left and Right line-level audio. This module can function as an input (for TX) or output (for RX) device. The audio signal direction is under software control, and is selected automatically by the type of CORE module being used. Audio-input mode (when used with VG-TX2 CORE): Input voltage: 2V peak-to-peak, maximum. Input impedance: >= 10K ohms. Input coupling: AC (capacitive). Input sample rate: 48KHz Input frequency response: 20-20KHz, (@-3dB). Audio-output mode (when used with VG-RX CORE): Output voltage: 2V peak-to-peak, maximum.Output impedance: <= 100 ohms. Output coupling: AC (capacitive). Output sample rate: 48KHz Output frequency response: 20-20KHz, (@-3dB). Connector: 3.5mm (1/8”) stereo-phono type jack. |
