The sophisticated G&D KVM portfolio is growing, and bringing an absolute novelty on the market in terms of IP transmission. In addition to the previously introduced extender system based on G&D‘s KVM-over-IP™ technology, the new ControlCenter-IP is now conquering the network world. This centralised KVM matrix allows, in addition to the existing point-to-point connection of IP extender systems, switching of all connected computer and workstation modules and extends the ease of use and flexibility.

POWERFUL AND SECURE IN THE NETWORK ON THE WAY WITH THE CONTROLCENTER-IP
POWERFUL AND SECURE IN THE NETWORK ON THE WAY WITH THE CONTROLCENTER-IP
Since a dedicated wiring to the device is onmitted and people work over the network, the transmission security plays a very important role. The ControlCenter-IP or the end components based on KVM-over-IP ™ extenders access only the standard interfaces of the computer and therefore no software installation is required.
Boot loader, operating system and firmware of the ControlCenter-IP form a so-called „Trusted Computing Platform“, which is protected from tampering by third parties. Here, an integrated „Trusted Platform Module“ (TPM hardware module) with an RSA encryption algorithm and a key length of 2048 bits secures all access and configuration data against spying. Sensitive information such as login information and passwords are stored as permanently encrypted. Possible modifications of the firmware can be detected early, and this lead to an interruption of the boot process. Manipulation attempts, such as smuggling of a keyboard sniffer, are prevented.
To protect the rights management and configuration data, the ControlCenter-IP reflects their content on two independent internal SSD storage media that are designed redundantly by a RAID1 network system. Of course, all information of the rights and configuration management are also backed by unique cryptographic keys.
Due to the flexible system topology, installations can be scaled arbitrarily and expanded easily via standard network elements. The system sizes of the matrix application are easily enabled for this via license key. Using this, the system can then subsequently expand as needed.

With the innovative CrossDisplay-Switching as part of the TS-function (digital matrix system), users can use the mouse to easily switch between channels. The mouse acts as if on a „virtual desktop“ and can be moved seamlessly across the connected displays. Moving the cursor from the active to another display, the keyboard-mouse focus automatically switches to the connected computer. Now users can create a multi-monitor console and need only one keyboard and one mouse to operate all computers. The mouse becomes the ultimate intuitive switching tool.
Your advantages:
- Easy switching by using the mouse, in addition to switching between channels using hotkeys or the OSD
- Intuitive operation and more efficiency at the workstation
- Computers with multi head graphics can be included
Scenario switching lets you store the switching condition of one or multiple workplaces or even of the entire system. The selected switching states are saved in a script in the matrix system and can be accessed and executed via the OSD of workplaces assigned with the required rights.
Your advantages:
- Individual settings
- Fast switching of several workplaces
- More intuitive operating concepts
- Usability of all commands of the text-based control
- Comprehensive control options
Push-get function optimises collaboration in the control room and allows the user to „push“ (push) the image on his monitor to the display of another workstation or a large-screen projection or to „get“ it from there (Get).
This solution also improves the communication, flexibility and speed within the team, since employees can now perform tasks together.
