64-channel bi-directional, small form-factor plug-able (SFP) transceiver for use with Pro Tools | MTRX MADI module and Dual MADI I/O option cards

 The MTRX SFP/LC optical module is an SFP transceiver with an LC connector. LC stands for Lucent Connector, Little Connector or Local connector. The MTRX SFP/LC transceiver can send and receive 64 MIDI channels at 1300nm (nanometer) wavelength, which allows longer cable runs. Up to two Pro Tools | MTRX SFP/LC transceivers can be fitted into either the MTRX MADI module or MTRX Dual MADI I/O option card. The right port of the SFP connector is the receiver and the left port is the transmitter. This module operates with an LED light source.

Avid Pro Tools | MTRX SFP/LC optical module in one take:

  • 64-channel, optical module for Pro Tools | MTRX MADI module and Dual MADI I/O option card
  • Small form-factor plug-able LC (Lucent Connector)
  • 1300nm wavelength for long cable runs
  • LED light source

 MADI Module and Dual MADI I/O option card—what’s the difference?

The MTRX MADI module is a small form daughter board that fits underneath the Pro Tools | MTRX motherboard, becoming integral to the MTRX base unit. The MADI module connectors appear in the MTRX base unit in the optical I/O slot above the DigiLink connectors. The Dual MADI I/O option card is a full-length PCIe card that fits into one or more of the eight expansion slots on the MTRX rear panel.

Which should I use, 850nm or 1300nm, LED or laser?

 Wavelength—There are three common wavelengths used for optical fiber transmissions; 850nm, 1300nm, and 1500nm. The first two are commonly used for multi-mode MADI cards. 850nm, which uses 100BASE-SX cable, is a lower cost alternative due to the use of short wavelength optics, which are significantly less expensive than the long wavelength options used in 100BASE-FX. Maximum cable runs are approximately 1,000 ft., while 1300nm can travel as far as 6,600 feet.

MADI cards that use the 1300nm wavelength are generally found in digital live sound consoles, such as those by Soundcraft, Studer, and Yamaha. Consult your owners manual or manufacturer for your system’s optical wavelength.

Light source: LEDs are a more cost-effective light source, whereas laser is more powerful, operates at faster speeds and is capable of transmitting light more accurately over longer distances. Naturally, laser light sources are more expensive.

For more information, on which optical module to use with your Pro Tools | MTRX, consult with your Westlake Pro sales consultant or systems integrator.
