Extend HD DVI, audio, and USB with flexible link media options

The Agility Dual and Agility Dual VNC offer high-performance, real-time extension of audio, USB, serial data and either two single-link DVI (1920x1200) or one dual-link DVI (2Kx2K) channel(s). One CATx and one SFP link interface offer maximum flexibility for the connections.

Choose a direct connect via CATx for distances up to 100 metres, or via fibre with ranges up to 10 kilometres depending on the SFP. The extender units can even be connected via IP switches, allowing for any distance within the network boundaries.


Establish switched KVM extension in 24/7 mission-critical applications

The Agility Dual and Agility Dual VNC are easily scalable too. Connect multiple devices via a TCP/IP network to establish a fully redundant switched real-time matrix. The Agility's unique switching lets you define switching presets in any combination of the DVI, USB, audio and RS-232 channels.

Featuring two link interfaces with teaming and optional iPath management, the connections can be set up with real-time hot redundancy. For system resilience, the iPath manager features a hub-and-spoke layout offering server back-ups and automatic failover with no downtime.

Additional remote access via VNC down to the BIOS-level provides quicker service capabilities via WAN or the Internet, further reducing potential downtime of systems.


Use link aggregation to distribute demanding video applications with audio and USB support

There are currently few solutions that are able to distribute and/or extend high-performance video at 1080p while maintaining 60 FPS. The Agility Dual and Agility Dual VNC now offer link aggregation with a throughput of 2 Gb over IP. With this bandwidth aggregation, even RGB 4:4:4 can be extended and distributed without any loss, making the Agility ideal for medical applications, post-production, dubbing theatres, simulation, and other high-end graphics.

Case study: Flexible Multicasting over a LAN

Multicasting HD video and peripheral signals can slow transmissions to a crawl, especially when using an IP network. Read how new digital extenders like the Agility assisted a science museum with a high visitor rate. Interactive touchscreens and HD video displays made their exhibitions a success.
