Application in control rooms

Control rooms make high demands to the availability of computer technology. Performing and monitoring a large amount of processes requires many computers. Many computers, however, pollute the indoor climate through heat and noisy fans and also require many peripherals at the desk.

How KVM is applied in control rooms
KVM extenders and switches are applied to separate staff and technology. Computers are removed into server rooms. A KVM extender system forwards the computer video to large screen projections or keyboard, video, mouse and other signals to the control desk.

Combining the extenders with a KVM switch additionally reduces the number of monitors at the console, yet allows the console to switch to an almost unlimited number of computers.

How KVM works in a control room

Thanks to the simple plug & play procedure, installing KVM cannot be made easier since the installation also uses the existing cable infrastructure. Crystal clear images are only one of the many advantages of KVM transmission. KVM does not require a connection to the network and works without any mouse or keyboard latencies. The extender allows the adjustment of numerous settings such as cable length, cable quality and runtime delays.

By applying KVM, the service staff can now maintain the computers directly in a separate server room without distracting the air traffic controllers in their work.
