The Draco™ major Switch sets a milestone in the use of matrix switches.
For the first time, the quality of the DVI signal sources can be controlled via a matrix switch.
Highest resolutions up to 1920x1200 (Duallink up to 2560x2048 in preparation) in conjunction with large distances open up a wide range of possibilities.
Through simple configuration, the device can be used in a wide variety of operating modes:
DVI-D
crosspoint switch - 32 inputs to up to 16 outputs
32:16 single-head KVM switch
16:8 dual-head KVM switch
8:4 quad-head KVM Switch
Details
In addition to the most well-known application as a KVM switch, the device can also be configured for operation with double or quadruple graphics cards.
In the KVM switch operating mode, the special function 'Partner Viewing' allows one (or more) screen(s) to be duplicated on one or more screens. Ideal if a screen is to be switched to a projector, for example, or if information is to be made accessible to the administrator. The 'Follow-Me' function ensures that the new image is displayed even when switching.
One function represents a common application in control centers: several monitors can be assigned to a workstation. The CPU displayed on the respective monitor can be freely selected from the list of available CPUs. With a short command, the connected keyboard/mouse can be switched to any monitor.
In the operating mode as a crosspoint switch, the Draco™ major opens up applications in conference rooms or digital signage applications.
In another operating mode, the system can be operated in a teacher/student configuration for training applications. When running with up to 15 students, the teacher can freely switch any screen to any student. When running with up to 31 students, any screen can be switched to a shared screen (e.g. projector).
Operation takes place in KVM switch mode via the connected keyboard in a comfortable on-screen menu (OSD). It is also possible to carry out the entire control by an external device via the serial interface or through network access. The device can be used, for example, as a crosspoint switch with standard media controls.
User management in up to 1000 levels allows detailed assignment of user rights at the console level, at the CPU level or at the function level.
The current status with port assignment, user login, etc. can be displayed at any time in the OSD or in the web interface.
The system is administered either via the included IR remote control, via a console with a user with administrator rights or conveniently via a built-in web interface.
The entire system with all built-in modules can be conveniently updated with the latest firmware without opening the system. To do this, the necessary upgrade files are loaded into the device via FTP.
A Draco™ major switch system is always structured as follows:
A local unit is installed on each signal source (CPU).
The connection to the Draco™ major is established using CATx or fiber optic cables (depending on the device version).
Optionally, the connection to a master Draco™ major can be established using CATx or fiber optic cables (depending on the device version).
A remote unit is installed on each console (monitor).
The connection to the Draco™ major is established using CATx or fiber optic cables (depending on the device version).
The Draco™ major Switch uses identical modules for input and output. This results in savings in storage costs and higher availability.
