IHSE USA showcasing KVM systems at I/ITSEC

IHSE USA recently announced it will be exhibiting at Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation, and Education Conference (I/ITSEC) 2023 which is taking place in Orlando, Florida from 27 November – 1 December.

As a company offering high-performance KVM systems that benefit modeling, simulation, and training applications, IHSE USA will showcase its suite of KVM solutions built for sim and training, including the Draco Tactical Deployable KVM System and Draco vario 487 Series of Secure KVMA (keyboard, video, mouse, audio) extenders.

“By giving users access to common desktop tools and robust security features, IHSE extenders promise to enhance intelligence integration and collaboration within and across different levels of classified computer systems,” said Dan Holland, Marketing Manager at IHSE USA. “This common desktop environment gives managers, analysts, and other system users the capabilities to generate and share information more productively and efficiently. Other potential benefits include decreased costs, the ability to leverage mature commercial technologies, easier training, enhanced data fusion and reporting, and secure network intelligence collections.”

Built from the latest high-speed KVM technology components, the Draco Tactical Deployable KVM System is designed for remote command and control rooms used for real-time collaborative visualization demanded by many different organisational verticals.

The Draco Tactical system brings together multiple actions within mission-critical environments. All electrical components, power, and cabling can be mounted inside a rugged, transportable, weather-resistant and MIL-SPEC-compliant case. Because the Draco Tactical systems are built around common KVM components, users are able to create custom configurations to support multiple displays and projection requirements.

For video projection, each Draco Tactical system can support an MV4K60 advanced quad-screen video processor commonly used for multimedia presentations in tactical operation centers and command operation centers. This is beneficial when it becomes necessary to display up to four video images on a single projector or monitor.

In addition, IHSE has also partnered with a shelter provider to support portable large-screen projection systems. These preconfigured and easily deployable systems can support screen sizes ranging from 60 inches to 190 inches wide and can accommodate all major projector resolutions up to 4K and 4,000 lumens.

For organisations who are focused on critical infrastructure needs, attendees will also be able to see the new Draco vario 487 Series of secure KVMA extenders, which maintain optical isolation to protect multidomain AV distribution device-sharing. To offer the highest level of optical separation, the 487 Series meets the strictest Common Criteria data-security requirements for peripheral-sharing devices.

Every model supports USB-HID for keyboard and mouse, DisplayPort/HDMI, and, optionally, audio. When these extenders are used as part of an IHSE secure KVM matrix, users can simultaneously control, and access classified and nonclassified sources through the same keyboard and mouse port.
