AVID 9900-71259-00 Multi-Mode Optical Module

Multi-Mode Optical Module for Pro Tools MTRX with 850 nm LED Transmission
The AVID 9900-71259-00 is a multi-mode SFP optical module engineered for use with Pro Tools | MTRX systems, delivering low-output digital audio transmission over LC fiber connections. Operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this module is optimized for short-distance MADI fiber applications, providing stable and efficient signal routing in studio control rooms, production facilities, and tightly integrated audio network setups. It’s a straightforward, reliable solution for expanding your MTRX system’s MADI I/O over multi-mode fiber infrastructure.

Designed for Short-Range MADI Fiber Connections
Ideal for installations where fiber runs span relatively short distances—such as rack-to-rack links or patching across nearby rooms—this module excels at maintaining audio integrity without overshooting the required signal strength. The 850 nm low-output LED design ensures that the signal remains clean and well-balanced across standard OM2 or OM3 multimode fiber, making it the go-to choice for compact studio systems and OB truck environments.

Low-Output LED Reduces Receiver Saturation Risk
Unlike laser-based modules that can overpower sensitive receivers in close-range fiber setups, this unit features a low-power LED emitter that keeps signal strength within a safe range. That’s crucial for ensuring consistent clocking and error-free MADI data transport in professional audio networks. It’s built for applications where reliability matters more than long-distance power.

Compatible with LC Connector Fiber Infrastructure
This SFP module is equipped with an LC interface, aligning with standard multimode fiber termination practices in modern AV installations. Whether you’re connecting to digital mixing consoles, MADI routers, or converters, the LC interface offers a compact and secure connection point that supports high-speed data transfer without the bulk of legacy connectors.

Tailored for Pro Tools MTRX Expansion
AVID’s modular Pro Tools | MTRX platform is known for its flexibility, and this optical module fits right into that design philosophy. Simply insert the SFP into an available port on your MTRX unit to enable fiber-based MADI connectivity. It’s a plug-and-go upgrade that supports scalable routing options and advanced digital workflows in Pro Tools | HD systems.

Trusted for Fixed and Mobile Broadcast Audio Systems
From broadcast control rooms to mobile production rigs, this module provides reliable MADI signal extension with minimal fuss. Its robust construction and stable LED performance make it suitable for critical applications where clean, uninterrupted audio signal flow is essential. Whether you’re working on location or in a fixed installation, this module provides consistent digital transmission.
