IHSE’s Draco tera enterprise switch is a high performance, modular KVM matrix system for bi-directional distribution of high definition video up to 4Kp60, audio, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 signals.

The live demonstration will feature IHSE’s hot key triggered connection switching between two USB 3.0 flash drives at a remote work station via the two-port Series 417 USB 3.0 fiber extender. The 417 USB 3.0 extender includes the ExtremeUSB suite of features such as transparent USB extension, true plug and play (no software drivers required) and compatibility with all major operating systems: Windows®, macOS™ and Linux®.

“The Series 417 USB extender makes it easy to transport lightning-fast USB 3.0 over long distances,” said Dan Holland, IHSE USA’s Marketing Manager. “By integrating into our Draco KVM matrix switch system, it becomes the ideal solution for sharing large video files between multiple laptops and desktop editing stations in a professional AV environment.”
