Command and Control

The control room can be a high pressure, fast moving

environment, so when choosing equipment, you need

to be sure that you choose products you can rely upon.

Adders command and control products are designed and

manufactured with quality at the forefront of our mind,

the reason that our products are used in mission critical

installations across the globe. Whether it is a power station,

an Air Trafc control tower or a live Broadcast studio,

the goals often remain the same - remove the computer

hardware from the user area, minimise the number of

keyboard/mouse sets at each desk, and provide safe, secure

remote access of computers.

Build quality is not our only focus. We understand the

importance of delivering information accurately and

immediately so we focus on enabling our users to interact

with their systems in real-time through high resolution,

low latency video extension. When combined with our

highly compatible USB platforms and simple, intuitive user

interfaces, you can begin to see why Adder products are

central to the design of so many control rooms around the

world.

Who uses Command and Control?

Command and Control is an essential part of many industries.

Security Agencies

Government Agencies

Trafc management

CCTV

EOC - Emergency Operation Centres

Emergency Services

COS - Combined Operation Centres

Air Trafc Control

Oil and Gas

Control Rooms

Broadcast

AV (Audio Visual)

Simulation and Training

Medical

Designed for the Control Room

Adder have four main categories of product for Command

and Control environments:

KVM extension

Locating noisy and hot computers away from operator areas

is essential to creating a comfortable working environment

for your operators. The psychological pressure of command

and control environments is increased signicantly by

noisy machines and can easily distract the user from their

primary focus. Placing computers in a locked, temperature

controlled environment also increases their life-span and

performance as well as preventing unauthorised access

to the computers and the information they store. Adder

products are designed in a way that provides all of these

benets without sacricing the performance you would

expect if the PC were under your desk. In our view, the best

KVM extender is the one that the operator does not realise

is there. This means providing real-time extension, high

resolution graphics and a high level of USB compatibility.

In addition, all of our devices run silent with no fans built

in. Through intelligent design and layout, they rely upon

natural conduction cooling to dissipate heat.

KVM switching

It’s highly likely that an operator will need access to more

than one computer or video source to carry out their tasks.

In many applications, the operator will often require more

than one monitor on their desk which typically leads to

multiple keyboard/mouse sets. Adder’s keyboard and

mouse switches allow you to remove the keyboard and

mouse clutter from the desk, improving ergonomics and

simplifying the usability of complex setups. With Adder’s

FreeFlow switching technology, it is now possible to move

between multiple computers, operating systems and

displays using a single mouse.

KVM over IP

For many years, Adder has been providing remote access

of computers using a dedicated hardware package and

Real VNC protocol. This technology has been widely used

to provide remote access for secondary/emergency control

rooms but is more commonly used to allow computer

images to be presented on to the video wall. Many video

wall processor manufacturers accept VNC protocol for video

inputs and recommend Adder IP devices because of the

superior performance they offer over traditional software

versions. The latest models in this category support HD

resolutions, dual-screen and audio making them the clear

market leaders.

Digital IP Matrix – Combining extensions, switching and IP

in a single network.

Migration to digital video and USB technology has

introduced a huge amount of complexity when combining

extension, switching, sharing products to create exible

user access. Along with complexity comes higher costs and

compromised performance so many customers are turning

to KVM Matrix products. The matrix concept gives each

operator the ability to connect to any source computer

via a central matrix switch. Unfortunately, high quality

KVM matrix systems carry a large price tag and have

limited scalability so are only rarely used in very premium

applications. With the development of the AdderLink

INFINITY range, Adder has created a exible, scalable

matrix which uses standard network infrastructure to

deliver real-time HD video, USB 2.0 hubs and audio over

ubiquitous copper cabling. The system allows integrators

to simplify system design and bring all elements of the

KVM function under a single umbrella and manage devices

using the comprehensive AdderLink INFINITY management

system (A.I.M.). In short, you can now extend, switch, share

and access any computer on your KVM network from the

desk, the video wall or in fact, anywhere in the world.
