KVM Solutions for Broadcast
and Post-Production Facilities
KVM and HD video peripheral switching and extension solutions are ideal for optimising
workﬂows within the entire broadcast/post-production facility...
Control, Convenience,
and Total Cost Savings
KVM (Keyboard, Video, and Mouse)
switches and extenders give users
access to a variety of target devices,
such as CPUs, servers, and other signal
or data sources. Users can monitor
workﬂow, and gain ﬂexible control
of visual and peripheral elements.
Both switching and extension provide
effective management of technology
elements, within the collaborative
environments of the entire broadcast
facility.
Additionally, KVM technology gives
users a small total cost of ownership

The design of fast, ﬂexible, and reliable
tools assists Black Box's clients in
supporting instantaneous switching

(TCO), improved operability and quick
ROI. Maximum ﬂexibility, scalability,
and improved reliability are also
provided, along with green IT solutions
with energy saving design.
Broadcast: Fast Switching,
Multi-User Sharing
The
current
collaborative
requirements within broadcast and
post-production facilities require
various staff members to have realtime access to video and sound,
for review and editing, as well as
monitoring and control of in- and
outbound signals and content.
KVM and HD video peripheral
switching and extension solutions
are ideal for optimising workﬂows
within the entire broadcast/postproduction facility. They enable access
for many users at once, in real-time,
to high deﬁnition video signals,
audio, serial, and USB peripheral
signals of backracked PCs, servers,
and workstations. The ﬂexibility of

switching between multiple different
sources also reduces downtime, by
giving easy access to backup systems.
Empowering Clients with
Technology, Support, and Expertise
Black Box helps clients in the media
and broadcasting industry design,
build, deploy, and upgrade missioncritical monitoring and control
solutions, video processing and
distribution infrastructure, and highperformance networking systems.
These steps improve collaboration and
productivity, lower operating costs,
and simplify back-end support to
deliver clear, competitive advantages.
The design of fast, ﬂexible, and
reliable tools assists Black Box's clients
in supporting instantaneous switching,
HD video signal transmission, and SDI,
HD-SDI, HDMI, DVI, and 3GSDI signal
distribution. The correct technology
solutions of receivers, extenders,
and displays can support resolutions
of 1080p, and all the way up to 4K

The ﬂexibility of switching reduces
downtime by providing easy access to
backup systems

(3840×2160), creating a competitive
advantage
through
ergonomic,
efﬁcient workﬂows by planning,
integrating, and deploying switching
and extension solutions.
