Case Study: Swiss Broadcasting Company optimizes workflows with Black Box Emerald KVM-over-IP

Swiss Broadcasting Company optimizes workflows with Black Box using 2560 x 1600 DisplayPort KVM

A Swiss broadcasting company needed a KVM matrix switching system to allow its video and graphic editors to access computers located in data centers throughout its headquarters. The system required the ability to extend signals over their LAN infrastructure and support a high video resolution. They contacted vendor Black Box Network Services to test a proof of concept for an Emerald KVM-over-IP solution.

Black Box implemented a solution using Emerald 4K and Emerald PE devices, which extended KVM signals over the existing LAN and supported the required resolution. The deployment of this system optimized workflows and increased productivity by allowing editors to access all critical computers directly from their workstations. The solution also improved employee comfort and provided clear picture quality for professional editing. Black Box provided technical support throughout the process and included the Boxilla KVM Manager for easy system monitoring.
