Guntermann & Drunck and its subsidiary GD North America, will be at InfoComm 2017 to show its KVM product portfolio, including the new KVM extender DP1.2-VisionXG.
The KVM extender DP1.2-VisionXG makes it possible to transmit 4K and 8K resolutions at a refresh rate of 60 Hz over large distances.
The KVM extender system consists of a computer module and a user module. It allows users to operate their computers remotely and transmit uncompressed DisplayPort videos over distances up to 10,000m. The device is available in variants with up to four video channels. The source synchronicity of the video channels means even extremely high video resolutions such as 4K and 8K can be extended over long distances.
The DP1.2-VisionXG uses optical fibers for the dedicated transmission. This means the system has enough bandwidth for uncompressed, high-resolution DisplayPort 1.2 video signals, keyboard/mouse, RS232, USB2.0, and audio.
At InfoComm 2017, G&D will also introduce the KVM extender DP1.2-Vision, which uses the in-house HDIP compression technology in the latest development stage, Level 3. This compression mode allows the loss-less transmission of video signals with a resolution of 4K at 60Hz. This means the systems require less bandwidth to transmit signals. The DP1.2-Vision supports the transmission of DisplayPort1.2 signals, which takes place either via CAT cables over distances up to 140 m or via optical fibres to 10,000 m.
