Small housing, impressive performance: KVM manufacturer G&D launches high-end product series [Sponsored Post] posted: 18/06/2021
Smaller, more compact, more powerful - the new VisionXS
The comprehensive portfolio of the German KVM manufacturer Guntermann & Drunck (G&D) continues to grow. With its VisionXS, the company is launching a new high-end extender product series. Following the motto smaller, more compact, more powerful, G&D developed a new compact multi-purpose KVM tool. The main idea: a wide range of functions in the smallest possible housing. The new VisionXS systems are high-performance KVM extenders with a bandwidth of 10G and video transmission for resolutions up to 4K. Users can expect the best video quality and an even better performance.
Previous devices from the manufacturer support a data transfer rate of 1Gbit/s per line. Thanks to G&Ds self-developed compression method, full 4K video over 1Gbit could already be transmitted. However, with a bandwidth of 10 Gbit/s, VisionXS opens up a new dimension of possibilities. Especially fast videos and frequently changing image content now require significantly less compression thus improving the user experience many times over. Initially, the German manufacturer will provide extender modules for KVM-over-IP, followed by solutions for classic KVM systems for direct transmission.
Universal compatibility enables a high degree of flexibility
An important advantage of VisionXS extenders is the ability to combine them with G&Ds matrix systems. For customers, this means even more flexibility, because VisionXS products can either be operated in pairs as an extender line or they can also be integrated into matrix installations. Thus, users will also have one hardware for everything in the future. Like any other G&D product, the new devices are fully compatible with existing models. The extensive combinability of the KVM systems ensures solutions that are suitable for all applications. This makes it even easier to plan and expand installations, even at a later date.
Versatile signals for the best video experience
In a first step, a high-end system for DisplayPort UHR with a transmission bandwidth of 10G will be launched, followed by devices for HDMI and DVI. For the VisionXS series, the manufacturer also relies on its proven, lossless compression High Dynamic Image Processing, which enables authentic, pixel-perfect video experiences. In addition, dual head modules allow the transmission of two video signals via one transmission cable. These modules offer significant advantages: Two video signals transmitted over one line saves 50 % of cabling or KVM modules.
The new VisionXS-IP-DP-UHR system is compatible with the central ControlCenter-IP appliance. Combined, these units form a powerful matrix for KVM-over-IP. This means that each connected workstation can be granted access to any computer connected to the KVM system. While the network infrastructure takes over the transport of KVM-over-IP using network switches and routers, the ControlCenter-IP contributes the logic. Both the dynamic access and the use of KVM-over-IP make the application even more flexible. Secure and reliable operation is ensured by AES-128 encryption and the regular exchange of security keys. Of course, extensive security features such as the use of VPN, VLANs and G&Ds UID locking are already implemented.
Space-saving and efficient rack mounting
The size of the modules is an important difference that stands out already at first glance. And because less is usually more, the console modules of the VisionXS series are now significantly smaller and thus require less space. With their significantly smaller size, the products can also be used in applications where space is a critical factor. In addition, the manufacturer now also provides new and efficient mounting options that require fewer screws. For the new VisionXS modules, G&D relies on a new click mechanism making it much easier to install the devices.
With these powerful expansions to the portfolio, G&D caters to the growing complexity of KVM applications by providing a smaller solution with a large selection of powerful features. Thanks to versatile KVM products that can be combined, the best possible solutions, which considers the application, the existing IT structures and the requirements of the projects is always right on hand. The series production of the VisionXS systems will start in September 2021.
