Introduction
The AV4PRO-DP is designed to enable four computers equipped with DisplayPort technology to be controlled from a single KVM console. The switch makes use of Adder's True Emulation Technology which enables USB HID (Low and Full speed) devices to be continuously emulated to each computer. This unique technology enables instantaneous and reliable hotkey switching whilst also supporting the extra keys and features of enhanced keyboards and mice. Furthermore, the ADDERView includes two independently switchable USB 2.0 channels (Low, Full and High speed) and an audio channel, giving the user the flexibility to attach selected peripherals to different computers
Features
- DisplayPort Video Support
- DisplayPort 1.1 compliant (4 lanes at 2.7Gb/s). DisplayPort's high
performance is important for enabling new digital display experiences.
For example, DisplayPort can easily support high end monitors featuring
2560 x 1600 resolution at 60Hz refresh rate and 10 bits per color, 1920
x 1200 resolution at 120Hz refresh rate, and Full HD monitors at 1920 x
1080 resolution and 60Hz refresh rate at 12 bits per color without
latency, all over standard cables.
- USB True Emulation 2.0 Technology
- The AV4PRO-DP belongs to the first KVMA range of switches to feature
Adder's advanced USB True Emulation technology. Emulated USB provides an
instantaneous and reliable switching action and makes keyboard hotkey
and mouse switching possible. However, previous implementations have
used only generic emulations and consequently have only been able to
support the most basic keyboard and mouse features. Adder's
revolutionary True Emulation technology overcomes this frustrating
limitation by emulating the true character of the connected devices to
all the computers simultaneously. This means that you can now use the
extra function keys, wheels, buttons and controls that are commonly
found on modern keyboards and mice. Users in Architecture, Graphic
design, Post production, Animation etc. often need to use specialized
interface devices such as graphics tablets, 3D explorers, joysticks, and
so on. The AV4PRO-DP makes all this possible.
- Independent Simultaneous Device Selection
- Flexibility is key to the ADDERView Pro. The switch enables you to
use the KVMA console to work on one computer whilst your USB peripherals
are connected to other computers and your speakers are playing music
from yet another. You can of course still switch all connected devices
to any one of the connected computers as with any other KVM switch.
- Channel Selection Options
- The ADDERView Pro can be switched using selectable keyboard hotkeys,
3 button mice or the front panel controls. Optionally, you can also use
the RC4 remote switch to make your selection .These switching options
allow you to rapidly reassign connected devices to any of the connected
computers.
- Broad USB 2.0 Hi Speed Device Support
- A vast range of USB devices can be connected to the ADDERView. From
non standard human interface devices to printers and scanners. This
gives great flexibility. For example, you could be scanning a set of
documents onto one computer whilst working on another and printing from
yet another, all at the same time. The USB 2.0 switching action has been
carefully engineered to ensure maximum computer reliability when
connecting and disconnecting USB devices.
- Options Port For Control, Synchronization and Upgrade
- An 'Options' port enables the AV4PRO-DP to be remotely switched
using a 4 button switch unit (RC4). By linking 'Options' ports, two or
more units can be switched in synchrony to create a multi video head
switching system. The same port can also be used to upgrade the firmware
to guarantee that your hardware investment continues to deliver real
value well into the future.
