Adder Technology has upgraded the ADDERLink Infinity 3000 (ALIF3000) series, a keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) receiver, which now boasts improved virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) protocols, advanced audio capabilities, and 4K/Ultra HD (UHD) video support.
The latest updates introduced to the ALIF3000 align with the evolving needs of businesses transitioning to virtualised environments. By integrating into existing IP KVM networks, the ALIF3000 enables users to access unlimited sources, regardless of virtual or physical, from a single workstation.
These updates enhance compatibility across a range of VDI protocols, including VNC, HTML5, SSH, and RDP, empowering users to select the client that best suits their requirements and applications. Moreover, the updates deliver 4K/UHD resolutions, ensuring improved detail and colour accuracy for virtual sessions.
Darren Jones, Technology Operations Manager at Dock10, a video production service in England, said, “The new updates to the ALIF3000 further enhance our ability to integrate all aspects of our workflow. The ALIF3000 gives us the ability to connect our vast virtual estate with our existing core system, which is a huge bonus when it comes to improved workflows and productivity.
“Now, with the new updates, we can give our customers and engineers access to both physical and virtual servers, while maximising our 4K/UHD real estate. Our KVM solution has allowed us to streamline our operations — meaning that we can continue to deliver top-notch live TV broadcasts and produce captivating 4K/UHD drama for our customers.”
The integration of the ALIF3000 with the ADDERLink INFINITY range can extend the benefits of virtualised server access to a controlled IP KVM network. By leveraging the ADDERLink Infinity Manager (AIM) to define user access rights and channel information, IT managers can ensure authorised users to exclusively view and access target PCs, thus ensuring optimal system security.
