FDA/IEC 60825-1 Requirements CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT Complies with FDA performnce stndrds for lser products except for devitions pursunt to Lser Notice No. 5, dted June 24, 2007. The product is intended to be used with the fiber optic cbles fully instlled. This product meets the pplicble requirements of IEC 60825-1, Edition 1 (2007). Any service to this product must be crried out by Electronics nd its qulified service personnel. About the nd The HFX 100 HDMI extender comprises of trnsmitter (Tx) nd receiver (Rx) pir, which use one multimode fiber optic cble to trnsmit signl up to 300 meters (984 feet). The trnsmitter ccepts single HDMI input nd converts it to proprietry signl tht is sent over the fiber optic cble to the receiver. The receiver converts the signl bck to n HDMI output. The extender supports DDC nd HDCP pss-through. Fetures Signl extender converts the HDMI signl to proprietry formt tht cn be crried up to 300 meters (984 feet) without loss of signl integrity. Power supply Both the trnsmitter nd receiver re powered by 12 VDC, 1A power supply (provided). Disply Dt Chnnel (DDC) pss-through ensures tht the resolution nd refresh rte of the video input signl mtches the cpbilities of the disply device. High-bndwidth Digitl Content Protection (HDCP) pss-through ensures tht HDCP-complint outputs re ble to disply HDCP-encrypted content. 1
