2. KVM switches

KVM switches let you operate multiple computers from one console consisting of keyboard, mouse and monitor. Computers with multi-monitor graphics cards can be connected to multi-channel switches.

DP1.2-MUX3-ATC - Instant switching of DP1.2 signals

The KVM switch DP1.2-MUX3-ATC is designed specifically for the use in ATC applications. With this switch, ATCOs are able to operate up to three computers via one console (e.g. primary, redundant and fallback system). The instant-switching system supports 4K resolutions at 60 Hz and avoids the short image interruptions during switching that are otherwise caused by the display. In the event of a computer failure, users can switch to a redundant system at the touch of a button – within a fraction of a second.

More highlights of the DP1.2-MUX3-ATC

  • Support of DisplayPort 1.2a resolutions (downwards-compatible)
  • Resolution up to 4096 × 2160 @ 60 Hz (4 K @ 60 Hz)
  • Channel switching via hotkey, SNMP, button, OSD, web interface, IP-Control-API or external serial device (OperatorPanel)
  • Instant switching of DP1.2 signals thanks to unique G&D technology
  • Automatic switching of channels in case of signal loss
  • Hot-pluggable
  • Ventilation concept for the use in cold/hot aisle installations
  • Extremely high reliability

 

DP1.2-MUX-NT and DL-DVI-MUX-NT

The KVM switches DP1.2-MUX-NT and DL-DVI-MUX-NT also provide many features for mission-critical applications. The KVM switch DP1.2-MUX-NT enables you to operate up to two computers via one console and supports 4K resolutions at 60 Hz via DisplayPort 1.2a (downward-compatible). The KVM switch DL-DVI-MUX-NT enables you to operate up to four computers via one console and supports 2K resolutions at 60 Hz (4K @ 30 Hz) via dual link DVI. The DVI-I interface supports digital and analogue video signals (VGA).
