It can be seen everywhere that audiovisual technologies have migrated to IP networks for a variety of reasons, including easy scalability and remote access convenience. However, as engineers work hard to clear obstacles to delays, quality and safety, the process is relatively slow. 

For the KVM solution, these three shortcomings cannot be started. Usually found in mission-critical command and control environments, KVM-over-IP solutions need to be agile enough to achieve smooth mouse movement, have a high enough resolution to view important details, and be robust enough to Meet safety and reliability standards.

 The following products check all these boxes and make the life of the technical manager easier and more efficient in the process.

The new ADDERLink INFINITY 4000 supports Gigabit Ethernet, improved video resolution and advanced diagnostic functions, allowing customers to better control when and how they choose to integrate 5K into their IP KVM network. As the adoption of 5K continues to grow, so does the need to maximize available bandwidth without sacrificing pixel-perfect image quality. To meet this demand, Adder introduced multi-gigabit Ethernet support, which means that customers can balance their video quality and bandwidth usage requirements by providing 5K on various network functions from 1Gbps to 10Gbps. This version also provides high-quality immersive sound through DisplayPort digital audio, and a new on-board diagnostic tool that allows customers to troubleshoot KVM networks.

ATEN's KE9950 4K DisplayPort IP expander single-display KVM provides a video resolution of up to 3840x2160 at 30Hz (4:4:4), and lossless video compression quality without delay. The solution consists of a 0U rack-mounted high-performance IP-based transmitter (KE9950T), which is connected to a computer and receiver (KE9950R), and the console can be accessed from a separate location. KE9950 allows 24/7 access to the computer system via a remote USB console via the Intranet, enabling users to locate the computer in a safe and temperature-controlled environment isolated from the user workstation. To increase security, the extender supports AES encryption for secure data transmission, while RADIUS, LDAP, AD or remote user authentication provides an additional layer of connection security. The solution is very suitable for a variety of work environments, including traffic management centers, retail monitoring centers, facility status rooms, command control centers, utility process control centers, broadcast distribution monitoring systems, network operations centers (NOC), and other industries that require a matrix Need to expand.

Emerald can scale to as many users and servers as needed, and provides fail-safe network redundancy, making it ideal for MCR, post-production, and all other critical production environments. Use Boxilla KVM Manager to maximize the performance of any KVM matrix with more than 25 endpoints. Emerald is developed and manufactured by Black Box, focusing on reliability and performance. 

Crestron DM-NVX-D80-IOAV is a compact AV decoder over IP that can act as a receiver. DM NVX D80 is compatible with Intel's Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) and can be seamlessly integrated with OPS-enabled displays. DM NVX technology supports the expansion of USB signals, which can be switched and routed together with AV signals or separately through the control system. The OPS port of DM-NVX-D80-IOAV has the function of a USB 2.0 host port, so that DM-NVX-D80-IOAV can be used as a remote extender. The OPS port receives USB signals from KVM (keyboard, video, and mouse) devices or other types of USB peripheral devices. The USB signal is transmitted over the network to the USB 2.0 device port of the DM NVX device, which serves as a local extender and sends the USB signal to a USB host device (for example, a computer). 

With near-zero latency and visually lossless video transmission, Datapath Arqa brings many benefits to end users. The Arqa KVM system utilizes optimized IP video transmission technology, which can greatly reduce latency and provide immediate control. Strict testing has shown that there is no difference between operating a PC via Arqa or directly connecting the connection to the local desktop. With the increase of security issues and the AV/IT team's commitment to more streamlined management processes, the convenience and benefits of KVM control have become more and more necessary for the control room architecture. With Arqa, the maintenance team can put all PCs in one place, saving time, saving desktop space and keeping hardware safe. Another benefit for the end user is Datapath's One Control technology, which allows the operator to switch between up to 16 independent sources as if they were a desktop computer without pressing any buttons. Since the system essentially acts as an IP matrix switch, users can select up to 2,000 endpoints in the system.

NAV is a professional IP video and audio solution for distributing and exchanging low-latency, high-quality video, audio and USB 2.0 signals at a low bit rate via Ethernet.

ControlCenter-IP combines the advantages of a classic matrix with the flexibility of an IP system. Any connected operator station can be granted access to any remote computer. When the network infrastructure uses network switches and routers to take over the KVM transmission over IP, ControlCenter-IP is responsible for the logic. The transmission is compressed through the category cable or optical fiber through the IP-based standard network, and the data transmission rate of each line is 1Gbps. This allows existing IT installations to be expanded more easily, flexibly and cost-effectively. The ControlCenter-IP system provides high-quality images and uses internal compression technology HDIP. This compression mode can transmit video signals losslessly at 60Hz with a resolution of up to 4K. Combined with the IP extender system for DP1.2a and DP1.1a and single-link and dual-link DVI, it supports a wide range of video signals with an IP resolution of up to 4K. Using ControlCenter-IP, users can integrate general USB devices and high-speed USB 2.0 into the KVM installation on the IP. It also provides the MatrixGuard function to provide additional security in the event of a failure. With MatrixGuard, a secure redundant cluster can be implemented in the KVM environment over IP.

Last year, IHSE introduced a virtual KVM solution that allows virtual servers to coexist as part of the existing Draco tera KVM switch system, thereby creating a simplified multi-tasking virtual environment in which multiple locations can be accessed directly from the physical KVM console Operating systems and applications. This year, IHSE expanded these network functions by introducing the Secure IP Remote Access (SIRA) series of IP KVM solutions. SIRA includes a large number of gateways and remote access products to create hybrid KVM solutions. The new SIRA model reduces the time and cost associated with managing multi-site computer sources by combining network workstations and local computers under a secure display management system. SIRA connects the KVM matrix to a private or public TCP/IP network, thereby bringing greater flexibility to the Draco tera matrix without sacrificing the philosophy of separating the core matrix and signal management from TCP/IP security. This allows better high-performance remote access to the target device of the connection matrix through an HTML browser or soft client. Encrypted signal transmission via IP ensures intellectual property protection, while still providing the most flexible access from remote locations via private or public networks.
