Visitors to this year’s IBC broadcast and media trade show in Amsterdam can look forward to a variety of current trends. Attendees can expect to see exciting innovations in operating concepts and multi-viewing in the broadcast industry. From September 13 to 16, 2024, we will be showcasing our wide range of products and solutions at booth 8.B51. With our many years of expertise and continuous innovation, we offer forward-looking solutions for broadcast and IT applications.
Ease of use with KVM solutions
The demands on broadcast control rooms are continuously increasing as they become more complex and need to integrate a growing range of cutting-edge technologies. This growing complexity poses significant challenges for staff, as they need to monitor multiple processes simultaneously and carry out workflows in parallel. KVM solutions are designed to serve as an interface between humans and machines, improving workflows, enhancing technology security, and improving ergonomics. For many years, KVM systems have been optimizing workflows in studios, OB vans, and post-production by providing real-time access to outsourced computers and seamless switching between various sources. With a clear focus on ease of use, we develop user-friendly and reliable KVM solutions that meet these increasing requirements.
Multi-viewing for every application
To enhance efficiency in broadcast control rooms, multi-viewing tools can be employed. These tools provide a significant advantage for various broadcast applications by enabling a clear display and efficient management of multiple processes at each workplace. Multiple physical sources and streams can be monitored and controlled simultaneously on a larger monitor surface. This advanced function can be used in live productions such as concerts, sporting events, or television broadcasts, among others. Directors and technicians can monitor multiple camera perspectives simultaneously, allowing them to customize the layout to prioritize certain feeds, thereby increasing efficiency and improving production quality. We will present various solutions from our portfolio at IBC, catering to individual needs. Both local applications with a limited number of sources and complex, networked installations can benefit from multi-viewing functionality. With impressive image quality of 4K@60Hz and supporting resolutions up to 5K@60Hz, an optimal user experience is created, ensuring ergonomically designed workspaces.
Limitless possibilities with the new DynamicWorkplace-CON
The new DynamicWorkplace-CON is a workplace module (CON) specifically designed for integration into KVM matrix installations. Its seamless integration into existing matrix applications offers the advantage of being able to flexibly arrange different computer modules (CPU) and their sources on a larger workspace. This module promotes an intuitive way of working, facilitates workflows through operation on a larger surface, and enables the creation of efficient workflows, making the DynamicWorkplace-CON ideal for complex activities and processes in broadcast environments. The module’s multi-viewing function allows up to eight sources to be operated on four monitors simultaneously. The intuitive window manager enables easy positioning and handling of windows as well as flexible arrangement and movement across monitors, allowing ergonomic display of critical data at a central point, thereby improving efficiency, safety, and response time in control rooms.
System interoperability for an integrated broadcast world
In addition to implementing modern operating concepts, seamless integration of all deployed systems is an absolute must. The KVM systems from G&D achieve such seamless IT integration in the broadcast world. We present the broadest KVM portfolio on the market, which can be combined with each other, demonstrating how to integrate large, distributed IT installations as efficiently as possible with native broadcast equipment, thereby facilitating the work of broadcast professionals. The KVM matrix switches ControlCenter-Digital, ControlCenter-Compact, and ControlCenter-IP form the backbone of the used computer technology by allowing flexible, distributed access for producers to the outsourced servers – remotely, latency-free, and with the best video quality.
