Matrox Avio Series – User Guide

How it works
Matrox Avio consists of a transmitter unit and a receiver unit connected by a fiber optic cable. The
transmitter unit connects to the computer using a USB cable and two (2) male-to-male PS/2 cables(one for the keyboard and one for the mouse). The receiver unit connects to your transmitter unit
through a duplex LC-LC fiber optic cable. You can connect peripheral devices (such as a keyboard, amouse, and monitors) to either or both your transmitter and your receiver. Connecting to both
requires two (2) sets of peripheral devices.
A Matrox Avio environment is made up of four (4) areas defined around its transmitter and receiverunits:

Host
OpticalLocal
Remote

Host – Connections between the host system and the transmitter unit. The computer isthe only host device. You must connect the video output of your graphics card to thevideo in connectors on your tramsitter unit and your computer to the main USB
connector on your transmitter unit. To use the sound connectors at the front of yourtransmitter or receiver units, you also need to connect the sound input and output ofyour computer to the transmitter unit.
Host connections require male-to-male cables with the proper connectors.



Local – Connections to the transmitter unit to control the host system. These
connections are optional. Local devices can be a keyboard, a mouse, monitors, sound,and USB devices.



Optical – Connection through a fiber optic cable between the Avio transmitter and thereceiver units.

Matrox Avio Series – User Guide

9

Remote – Connections to the receiver unit to control the host system. Similar to the local
connection, you can connect these remote devices: keyboard, mouse, monitors, sound,and USB HID devices.

10 Matrox Avio Series – User GuideConnecting your Avio F125 unit
Before you begin

Make sure you have a Duplex LC-LC fiber optic cable.

Monitors connected to the connectors labeledon the transmitter and receiver units
use the same display and monitor settings. This also applies to monitors connected toconnectors labeled.

Your Avio units provide the link between your host system and your monitor, keyboard,and mouse. Before you turn on your host system, make sure you:
 connect your transmitter unit to your host system connect your receiver unit to your transmitter unit
 connect your monitors, keyboard, mouse, and other devices to your units
 turn on your devices and units after everything is connected
