The demonstrations highlight how fiber-optic-based video and KVM
switching and extension solutions from Thinklogical address many of
the complex signal management challenges facing today's broadcast and
video post-production professionals. Signal management products from
Thinklogical are optimized for broadcast, mobile production trucks,
and post-production applications where quality, performance and
security are paramount. Demonstrations and displays at the
Thinklogical booth include:
System Management Portfolio To help users easily manage and maintain
Thinklogical deployments of any size, Thinklogical is introducing the
System Management Portfolio. Encompassing four specialized software
packages, the Thinklogical System Management Portfolio provides
powerful remote management and maintenance capabilities, making it
easier for users to set up, configure, operate and update a
Thinklogical signal extension and switching system. Features and
benefits include:
-- A standard software package included with every Thinklogical MX and
VX matrix switch, the Configurator's intuitive graphical user
interface enables faster router set-up and helps simplify defining
users, groups, stations and macros.
-- The Premium Configurator offers synchronized system management for
use with redundant routing systems, enabling automatic configuration
synchronization. It also provides users with premium tie-line
management for bidirectional tie lines, with no restrictions for video
path direction over tie lines. Included with the Premium Configurator
is a drag-and-drop graphical user interface, which allows users to
easily model their physical system layout on-screen and quickly switch
sources and destinations by simply moving the content source icon to
the desired destination. As room configurations evolve over time users
can easily add or remove icons representing sources and destinations
from the layout as required, making it simple to adapt to changing
requirements.
-- The Hot-Key Manager provides control access from workstations,
granting any authorized receiver on the router the ability to make a
switch. Users define a set of keystrokes to deliver routing control to
the desktop, all managed through an easy-to-understand on-screen
display. With a simple keystroke or movement of the mouse, multiple
users in different locations can easily exchange a single source's
keyboard and mouse to more efficiently collaborate and share
resources.
-- The System Management Interface introduces system diagnostics,
remote monitoring and software updating capabilities to Thinklogical
system administration. The Interface monitors the connection and
system hardware and software providing various details such as product
type, serial number, power supply status, board temperature, optical
module status DDC mode, and software version, among other parameters.
The included System Update software allows users to remotely update
their KVM system hardware over a fiber connection up to 80 kilometers
(50 miles) away.
The new System Management Portfolio from Thinklogical improves overall
system performance and value by reducing support effort, lowering
total cost of ownership, enhancing productivity and maximizing system
uptime.
Industry-Leading Digital Cinema 4K Products See Thinklogical's modular
4K SMPTE Digital Cinema signal management solutions in action. This
industry-leading product line includes 6.25Gbps extenders and matrix
switches supporting four single-link DVI signals, two dual-link DVI
signals, four 1.5G SD/HD-SDI signals, and two 3G SDI signals.
Performance and Productivity for File-Based Video Editing Workflows
Experience the collaboration and productivity of video and KVM
extension and switching capabilities in the Post Production suite
demonstration. Users can sit at a typical post-production editing desk
and assign and switch HD and 4K video and audio signals from multiple
sources to different destinations with no latency or loss of quality.
Flexible and Efficient Modular System Design Review the Q and T-Series
modular system designs, supporting a breadth of video, audio and
peripheral data connections and formats in a flexible, space-saving
configuration that accommodates the system requirements known today,
while allowing for expansion and implementation of requirements that
may develop in the future. Highlights include the new eSATA extender
module and compact 4200-Series chassis that holds four modules and is
ideal for use in mobile broadcast production trucks where space is at
a premium.
