Enhancing Broadcast
Operations With
Enterprise-Class KVM
See Black Box's best-in-class digital KVM matrix

I

n the fast-moving, collaborative
environment of live broadcast,
multiple users need real-time access
to multiple servers and devices for
managing content playlists, monitoring
signals, and other operation tasks.
Many broadcasters have existing
analog KVM systems, or smaller KVM
systems operating in silos for different
functional teams. In either of these
cases it would be of benefit to the
broadcaster to consider the operational
efficiencies possible with an enterpriseclass KVM solution.
Enterprise-class
KVM
matrix
switching is a high-performance
solution that enables communication
and dynamic switching between user
consoles and remotely located servers.
The KVM matrix primarily operates
in parallel with the broadcast video
router, and in some applications
can also be used as a video router,
when equipped with SDI interfaces.
The system supports various types
of video and peripheral signals
including DVI, HDMI, and VGA, with
resolutions ranging up to 4K. Other
supported signal types include SDI,
HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, RS-232, analog and
digital audio, and USB 1.1 or 2.0 for
keyboards, mice, and advanced control
surfaces.
Upgrading from Analog to Digital
Today's
enterprise-class
KVM systems are digital.
Digital systems provide many
benefits over analog systems
including the following;
* Future-proof longevity
- The VGA standard is being
discontinued. This means that
new servers and monitors will
have video output connectivity

with HDMI and DisplayPort. Futureproof systems accommodate support
for WQXGA (2560 × 1600) and 4K/UHD
(3840 × 2160). Older, analog systems
do not support these new video
standards or resolutions.
* Digital technology is distinctly
better - Digital technology improves
users' experiences by providing
crystal-clear images at any supported
distance. HD video is delivered pixel
by pixel to digital displays at higher
resolutions and increased color depth.
* Digital systems are more scalable
- New, larger KVM matrices and IPbased systems increase flexibility and
enable connection to a much higher
number of endpoints. Hundreds of
users and devices can be incorporated
into one unified system.
* Signal switching is fast - Digital
KVM systems provide instantaneous
signal switching as opposed to seconds
for older analog systems. This means
that people can rapidly access new
systems, which is especially important
in fast-paced environments, such as
broadcasting.
* Expanded peripheral options -
Digital KVM systems feature improved
USB support and compatibility with
most other USB devices on the market,
such as touchscreens, keyboards,
mice, and advanced control surfaces.
RS-232 and audio are also supported.
This means that more
device types can be
supported, enabling the
KVM system to support
more applications for the
broadcaster.
Breaking Downs Silos

Enterprise-class
digital
KVM
matrix switching systems can also
eliminate technology silos and provide
centralised connectivity to all servers,
for all users. With a scalable system
chassis, an enterprise-class KVM
system can be deployed gradually.
Starting with a chassis that has enough
capacity for the current enterprise
requirements and for future growth,
one workgroup can be initially
converted to the enterprise-class KVM
system.
From there, individual workgroups
can be added over time by using the
additional capacity of the system.
User groups can be segmented and
only authorised to view or control
specific devices or servers, while a
supervisory operator could be granted
access to all devices and servers. That
means workgroups such as production
control, news, weather, graphics,
social media, and master control can
be logically segmented from each
other, while using the same physical
system. Ultimately, the system can be
scaled to support tens to hundreds of
users, services, and devices.
While segmentation can provide
logical separation for systems access,
a single system also means greater
flexibility. Collaboration is supported
between broadcast personnel and
studio teams, without a major
redeployment of equipment for
infrastructure redesign.

Enterprise-class KVM system enable
source content to be routed to video wall
screens for general monitoring

Flexibility, Multi-User Sharing
and Collaboration
An enterprise-class KVM system
enables any user to authenticate at
any console location to gain access
to production resources. This allows
unlimited workflow flexibility, and
fast reconfigurations to suit multiple
operating requirements, or shared
use of facilities. Additionally, multiple
users can view the same source
content, or it can be routed to video
wall screens for general monitoring.
