2 Audios model description
2 Unbalanced Audios over 1 fiber Transmitter and Receiver kit - Single mode / Multimode : F-2A-TxRx
Description

Analog Audio over one fiber Transmitter and Receiver kit helps solve sending unbalanced audio over long distances using Fiber.

We have several diferent models supporting 2, 4, 8,16 and 32 analog XLR Audio.

The audio fiber optic Transmitter, converts analog Audio 20hz to 20Khz fiber optic modulated digital stream so it could be transported over single mode or multimode fiber. (long haul available) - XLR to Optical

The Optical Receiver with XLR outputs converts the optical signal back to its orginal Analog Wave form - Optical to XLR

Offers very low latency 1ms so it's perfect for live events, shows, concerts, auditoriums, etc

The small and compact form factor means it could be used for any applications where copper has a limited distance or noise issues.

Question and Answers
Answer:
So in unidirectional format we have options from 2 Audio all the way up to 32 Audio. 
 
We also have some bidirectional options as well. 
 
The larger issue here is that multimode should be run anywhere near a mile. 
Maybe It could work for very short distances. 
Maximum I think multimode could carry the signal about 2000ft; but that would be in ideal conditions with almost no loss. 
 
Keep in mind this generally has nothing to do with the units themselves, its the fiber. The same unit that can send a signal about 2000ft on multimode can send the same signal 20km on singlemode. 
We do have a 30 day return policy, should you proceed with the purchase, and after installation realize this is not something that can be remedied with hardware, but actually needs to be re-pulled with new fiber. 
Answer:

The key differences between line level and mic level audio are related to signal strength, impedance, and the types of devices they are typically associated with:

  1. Signal Strength:

    • Line Level: Line-level audio signals are relatively strong and have higher voltage levels, typically ranging from around 0.3 to 2 volts. They are pre-amplified to a level suitable for processing or further amplification.
    • Mic Level: Mic-level audio signals are much weaker in comparison. They are generated by microphones and have very low voltage levels, often in the range of a few millivolts. Mic-level signals are not pre-amplified and require external preamplification to reach line level.
  2. Impedance:

    • Line Level: Line-level signals have a low output impedance, typically ranging from 150 ohms to 600 ohms. This low impedance allows them to be transmitted over cables without significant signal loss.
    • Mic Level: Mic-level signals have a high output impedance, usually in the range of 150 ohms to 250 ohms. This higher impedance requires a balanced microphone cable and a preamplifier with a matching input impedance to preserve signal quality.
  3. Devices and Applications:

    • Line Level: Line-level signals are commonly used to connect audio sources like CD players, DVD players, synthesizers, and audio interfaces to mixers, amplifiers, and recording devices. They are suitable for transmitting audio over relatively long cable runs.
    • Mic Level: Mic-level signals are generated by microphones and are used for capturing audio from sources such as voices or acoustic instruments. These signals are typically sent to microphone preamplifiers to bring them up to line level before further processing or recording.

In summary, the primary difference lies in signal strength and the source of the signal. Line-level signals are strong and pre-amplified, suitable for connecting various audio sources to other equipment. Mic-level signals are very weak and require preamplification before they can be used effectively, typically for capturing audio from microphones. Matching the correct signal level and impedance is essential for ensuring optimal audio quality in professional audio setups.

Answer:
Yes, we have a whole line of products dedicated to audio over fiber. 
 
We don't have an exact duplicate, but we do have very similar units that are definitely suitable as a substitute.
There is bidirectional XLR we have
 
 
 
We also have bidirectional analog audio 
 
 
 
 
Both of those should be good fits to replace the unit you have sent us. 
Answer:
Now if you look at the terminal block there are 4 numbers + GND. 
So you'll use 1 +2 for the first balanced audio 
Then you'll use 3+4 for the second balanced audio
Finally use the GND to ground the unit. Same thing goes on the receiver. 
I think looking at the picture makes it much easier to explain than verbalizing. 
 
We do have also Balanced  XLR Analog Audio Over fiber
