Black Box can offer a variety of KVM solutions for your control room. Depending on the size of your plant, the IT infrastructure and the technologies being used, our Black Box experts will advise you with the right solution.



Here is an overview of KVM Solutions which are used in Control rooms:

It provides access from the server room, the control room and supports IP access for remote control. It is scaleable from 8 servers upwards, and utilises catx cabling to achieve distances of up to 300 metres, making it ideal for plant control.
