Digital Network Media Extension Solution
We have always been well known for our extensive range
of KVM and KVMA extenders. The ADDERLink INFINITY
now demonstrates our leading IP capability by delivering uid
interaction with computers as far away as your network can
extend.
ADDERLink INFINITY allows you to build a exible
infrastructure, the likes of which have not been possible before.
Locate computers anywhere you like, share connections
to computers, watch the interactions others have with
computers, share control, collaborate, switch computers and
so on. The ADDERLink INFINITY is also the rst device of its
kind to allow multicasting across your network.
Adder’s expertise in IP based KVM solutions also means
that you get the very best video quality and uid USB based
interactions with your computer. Adder’s own USB True
Emulation technology has also been built into the ADDERLink
INFINITY, allowing you to connect all HID (Human Interface
Devices) as well as storage devices and many other USB
device types too.
Optimized for both HID and Mass Storage devices, the
ADDERLink INFINITY uses USB 2.0 technology to deliver
reliable and exible device support.
The ADDERLink INFINITY is available now from Adder and
Adder approved channel partners.
Flexible Usage Architecture
The ADDERLink INFINITY can be congured to deliver the ultimate
in system exibility.
In the diagram opposite, we can see the use of two remote computers
resulting in several very distinct usage scenarios:
Multicasting: The video output from any
transmitter can be multicast to many receivers.
The video data only exists once on the network,
and each connected user (receiver) can view the
output simultaneously.
Full Control: This user has full control of
computer 1. They are viewing the video output,
listening to the audio, using a local USB peripheral
and they have full keyboard and mouse control.
Mixed Receiver: Here a user is viewing the
output video from computer 2 with full keyboard,
mouse and local USB device control at the user’s
desk. At the same time, this user is listening to
audio from Computer 1.
A/V Only: This user position is congured to
display video and play audio only. A/V selection
may be from different sources.
Share Mode: In share mode, two or more users have simultaneous
access to a shared computer enabling collaboration or advanced
control applications.
Any to Any: In Any to Any mode, connections are fully independent
enabling one user to access the rst computer whilst another user
accesses another computer etc. This mode supports large scalable
matrix switching scenarios.
ADDERLink INFINITY Management System
(A.I.M.)
By making use of the ADDERLink INFINITY Management
System, you can administrate the entire network and apply
a exible selection of connectivity rules. For example, you
may wish to allow only certain users to access video from a
remote computer, apply sharing hierarchy to users, or make all
users view a predened channel mixture.
The ADDERLink INFINITY Management system allows you
to combine elements from remote computers and save those
combinations as ‘channels’. Your users can then pull up the
advanced EPG (Electronic Program Guide) on their receiver
and change channel, in much the same way as you would a
digital TV. If two receivers wish to collaborate on a machine,
or get technical support, they can both share keyboard and
mouse control at the same time.
Screen grouping allows you to switch multiple video feeds
together whilst using a single keyboard and mouse, ideal for
use on multi- head computers.
The ADDERLink INFINITY Management System is simplicity
itself to use, and because it sits on your network, you can
access it from anywhere you like, day or night. You can even
access usage logs which tell you which receivers have been
connected to which transmitters over time, what collaboration
has occurred and who is connected at any point in time. For
