San Francisco - New York - Chicago - Miami - Sao Paulo - Hong Kong - London - Vienna and receiver modules , and extends the usability and flexibility of broadcast applications .
While network switches and routers transmit IP packets from one point to another , the ControlCentre-IP is capable of managing the central system , and optimises the accessibility of all devices by enabling switching between transmitter and receiver modules . With this flexible system topology , installations can be scaled as required , and extended via standard network elements .
Transmission can take place over CAT cabling via standard IP-based networks on Layer 3 or via Ethernet . The transmission length is “ almost unlimited ” — two active network components can be connected to each other over a length of up to 100m via CAT cabling .
In delivering “ pixel-perfect ” video transmission , the system is able to process DisplayPort 1.1 signals , and supports video resolutions up to 2560x1600 @ 60Hz or 3840x2160 @ 30Hz . In addition , the system enables the lossless transmission of video signals using G & D ’ s in-house High Dynamic Image Processing ( HDIP ) compression method , which is now in Level 3 of its development stage .
Some features of G & D ’ s ControlCentre series have also been integrated into the KVM-over-IP matrix . These include functionalities such as monitoring and simple network management protocol ( SNMP ), a scripting function and scenario switching , the push-get function or CrossDisplay-switching for “ intuitive operation ” at multi-monitor workstations .
Jochen Bauer , marketing director for G & D , concludes : “ We are really excited about bringing the ControlCentre-IP to BroadcastAsia2018 , as it adds further flexibility to our portfolio . We believe that , while everything in the media industry is becoming IP , the move to our KVM-over-IP technology is the logical step into that direction .”
