Typical Application
Overview
Orion is a flexible system consisting of three-components: transmitters at the video or computer source, a central switch, and receivers at the user station. The switch is available in several different models with CATx, fiber, or mixed interfaces and varying input and output port counts: 8x8, 8x16, 8x24, 8x32, 16x8, 16x16, 16x24, or 16x32. Its crosspoint configuration mode allows connection of any input to one or more outputs. Its kvm configuration mode allows the same, plus you can configure it for dual-head or quad-head operation. The kvm mode offers some other features such as partner or follow mode.
In kvm mode, you can switch:
- 16 user stations to 32 computers (single-head)
- 8 user stations to 16 computers (dual-head)
- 4 user stations to 8 computers (quad-head)
The transmitter and receiver extenders offer single, dual, or quad-head video, local access, serial/audio, and USB 2.0 options. Each video source connects to a transmitter and each video display connects to a receiver. Choose the specific transmitter and receiver model depending on the features that you desire. The extenders are capable of transmitting a video resolution of up to 1920 x 1200 at the following distances:
- Up to 33,000 feet (10Km) using single-mode fiber cable
- Up to 1,300 feet (400m) using multi-mode fiber cable
- Up to 460 feet (140m) using CATx cable
Orion units may be daisy chained as well, allowing the connection of other Orion units to the main unit to provide access to up to 1024 computers from the user stations. Configuration of these user stations and CPUs is made simple with the inclusion of an intuitive OSD which can be accessed from any USB connected kvm station.
