Whether it's the director's desk or the driver's seat - in an OB van, each console needs to have simultaneous access to the central computer technology in the server rack.

How KVM works in OB vans
Switching between computers is carried out through a KVM matrix switch to which multiple computers are connected. The computers are accessed over one or multiple consoles consisting of keyboard, monitor and mouse. From here, KVM ports are accessed, signals forwarded to the switch and a connection is established to the receiver that provides the required peripherals.

How KVM improves OB vans
Since users can now access any computer, they can carry out any task in the OB van. Several staff members are therefore able to share and perform any monitoring processes at the same time.
