Small, yet powerful
Small in size, but large in features and performance, the DCX Digital KVM Matrix Switch is an ideal solution for process monitoring and control, broadcast studios, medical labs, testbeds, and advanced data centers where the personnel numbers are lower than in enterprise-sized organizations.

Slim chassis and small SAMs
The DCX Digital KVM Matrix Switch is an attractive option for small to medium applications with ports to support a combination of users and servers, with a supported maximum of 23 CPUs/servers.

Interface-powered server access modules (SAMs) extend DVI or DisplayPort and USB signals over shielded CAT6 or higher rating. In a Matrix setup, the SAM (Server Access Module) can be up to 10m from the DCX switch, and the User Station can be up to 50m away from the DCX switch using shielded category rated cabling. In a Point to Point setup where the SAM (Server Access Module) connects to the DCX Receiver directly, you may extend up to 50m from the SAM to the Receiver. The SAMs support audio via the USB interface, and the receiver can output the audio through the 3.5-mm jack.

Price point is on point
Not every broadcast studio or control room needs a large, expensive KVM matrix switch with all the bells and whistles. The DCX Digital KVM Matrix Switch has an attractive price point for smaller applications while still providing crystal-clear video and fast matrix switching.

Intuitive user interface
The unique and easy-to-use graphical interface is more intuitive to use than a text-based on-screen menu (OSD). Choose from auto-refreshed preview thumbnails, which are larger and easier to see. The GUI shows all connected devices in a layout that makes the matrix simple to view at a glance.

Zero compression, pixel perfect
The DCX Digital KVM Matrix Switch delivers every pixel of every video frame with zero compression and zero latency, fulfilling the needs of even the most demanding graphical applications and guaranteeing perfect video synchronization for multiple display applications.

Secure configuration
Secure system configuration is provided by the Web user interface, which is also compatible with tablet and mobile devices. The UI gives an administrator control for connected devices, enabling the choice of video only, shared, private, or exclusive access modes to be set up. In private mode, other users are able to view the shared video but have no keyboard and mouse access to the target. In exclusive mode, no other user has access to the configuration.

The Black Box KVM-over-IP Switchable Extender can be used in industrial control, factory floor, classroom, or meeting room applications. The extender supplies up to 600 mA to the downstream USB device and offers reliable operation with USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices. For better customer experience we also have Transmitter & Receiver sold separately.

Industry-Leading KVM
Emerald® PE PoE provides users with a seamless desktop experience anywhere on a TCP/IP network while allowing the actual hardware to be stored in a corporate data center or in the cloud. This robust solution is easy to deploy on standard corporate networks and even across WANs. PE enables the same experience of a desktop PC even for media-rich applications, like video and photo editing.

Emerald PE supports multiple setups: It allows you to link transmitters and receivers in a point-to-point KVM extension over CATx up to 100 meters or even farther using an IP or WAN connection. Or connect multiple transmitters and receivers to an Emerald or IP switch to create a matrix switching setup.

Your Emerald KVM network may start small with a point-to-point extension, but it's infinitely scalable to meet your future needs just by adding endpoints, with no extra chassis or cards required. PE supports up to 32 endpoints with no additional KVM management appliance. For larger deployments, use Boxilla® to manage your enterprise KVM network centrally.

Headache-Free Migration and Scaling
Emerald makes your migration painless, enabling you to scale access infinitely and gradually across buildings, campuses, and more using your existing network infrastructure.

Outstanding Video Quality
Emerald PE supports pixel-perfect HD DVI video with resolutions up to 1920 x 1080. This makes it an ideal solution for applications that require the highest video quality, like medical imaging and control rooms.

Virtualization Support
Emerald PE simplifies access to both physical and virtual servers with high-performance connectivity to virtual machines, supporting VMware® and Microsoft® HyperV®, using RDP 8.1 and RemoteFX.

Simple System Management
Manage bandwidth and user access, deploy new endpoints, update firmware, and more. Emerald PE can be managed via the receiver's OSD or the central KVM management platform Boxilla. Boxilla is a hardware-based management appliance that features a user-friendly, browser-based GUI.

Fail-Safe Operation
Your 24/7 operation requires network resilience. Use the redundant network ports on the Emerald PE units to provide continuous, uninterrupted operation in the event one network experiences loss of service. Connect the endpoints through either two alternative direct links, a direct link, and a network connection or two independent networks.

Multiple Power Options with PoE
Emerald PE supports powering receiver units via Power over Ethernet (PoE) from the transmitter unit or via an external PSU. Use both PoE and an external PSU for redundant power supply.
