Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, announced  the VertivTM Avocent® HMX 3080/4080 series, an IP-based signal extender that enables users to remotely transmit DVI video, audio, USB, and RS232 signals over a Gigabit network. The product is now available in Greater China, Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and India exclusively.

The Vertiv Avocent HMX 3080/4080 series expands the company’s high performance IP-based KVM portfolio. It improves on the Avocent® HMX 1080/2080 series by providing the following key advantages:

Key Benefits

• Improved performance: Each device, which consists of transmitter and receiver units, is assigned a unique IP address to help mitigate KVM transmission losses.
• Versatile Architecture: The Avocent HMX 3080/4080 offers a variety of connectivity options. CATx and fibre cables can be used to connect the receiver and transmitters directly. A single transmitter can be connected to multiple receivers or vice versa via the integrated network ports, providing connectivity redundancy.
• Virtual IP Matrix: An IP matrix architecture with enough bandwidth and network switch ports can support up to 65,000 receivers in the same network.
• Convenience: Any receiver terminal in the network can autodetect and configure all network devices.

The Avocent HMX 3080/4080 is ideal for control room settings in broadcast, emergency management, industrial, and energy organizations that require high-definition video and high quality audio.

“The Avocent® HMX 3080/4080 features enhanced performance and flexible architecture aimed at preventing transmission losses and providing multiple connectivity options,” said Mr. Priyaranjan Nayak, director – sales – IT management systems, rack PDU & racks for Vertiv India. “With its ability to seamlessly transmit high-quality audio and video remotely, this new offering will help organizations build a resilient and robust IT management fabric.”
