Challenges The ATEN Solution

• Required ultra-high resolutions (True 4K @ 60Hz) to The ATEN solution made it easy and efficient for air
run on 42-inch monitors traffic controllers to remotely monitor the UHD
output of computers and serial devices from
• To provide access to information systems from single-display workstations at short distances and
multiple workstations to enable the air traffic
controllers to perform data analysis and incident dual-display workstations at distances up to 6.5
reconstruction meters, while providing a smooth, ergonomic
desktop experience for controllers.
• Must integrate with Dell remote diagnostic unit and
Jotron recording and replay solution

Transportation

Desktop KVM switches in the transportation sector are mainly used in fast-paced control room scenarios where distances from
information sources aren’t long enough to require KVM extenders but multiple systems still need to be accessed from one console,
allowing operators to efficiently and effectively monitor multiple information streams in order to make accurate mission-critical
decisions. In these situations, such as air traffic control, where detailed overviews of visual data from synchronized recording and replay
systems are required so that reaction times are as fast as possible, it is also important that solutions offer maximum operator comfort
while decreasing desktop clutter so that workflow remains smooth and unhindered.
Single and Dual-Display Desktop Solution for Air Traffic Control
A public-private partnership responsible for a country’s military and civil air traffic control services was looking for a KVM switch solution
to update the air traffic controller workstations in one of its main control centers. The location provides air traffic control services to
fourteen airports and controls both upper level en-route traffic and low-level traffic, including aircraft making approaches to the capital
city’s main airports. The desktop KVM solution needed to incorporate a mix of single-display and dual-display workstations in the air traffic
control center with various short distance limitations and provide access to on-site information systems, including a Dell server running as
a remote diagnostic unit as well as a Jotron recorder, to perform critical tasks such as preventative monitoring and event reporting.
