The Draco XStreme series is based on a completely new hardware platform that has been specially developed to meet growing technical requirements and new standards. The devices support resolutions from Full HD (FHD) up to 8K and combine outstanding picture quality with minimal energy consumption. Implementing the JPEG XS video codec as a key technology enables visually lossless signal transmission with reduced bandwidth utilization and latency. This generation of extenders thus achieves a new level of user experience.

Unique performance features

With Draco XStreme, IHSE introduces extenders for:

• Dual Head 4K60 applications: Transmission of two high-resolution 4K60 signals via one single cable.

• Single Head 4K60 applications with 1 Gbit/s link speed: This innovation offers an unbeatable combination of performance and efficiency.

• A new level of resource conservation: State-of-the-art hardware and an advanced video codec set new standards in terms of energy efficiency and reduction of infrastructure costs.

Built on the foundations of the Draco KVM switch to deliver combined switching and multiviewer performance and flexibility to sophisticated control room and information sharing applications.

The Draco SIRA CPU enables the seamless integration of virtual machines into KVM systems.

Product Information

Concept
The Draco SIRA CPU (Secure IP Remote Access) combines the functionality of a thin client and a KVM extender (transmitter). This space-saving solution is fully compatible with the Draco vario extender and the Draco enterprise and compact matrix switch series.

Function
The IP module provides seamless KVM connectivity to an IP infrastructure. It supports RDP, RemoteFX, SSH, VNC and HTML5 protocols (access via kiosk mode). Further remote protocols will be incorporated in future and can be made available on demand. A single Draco SIRA CPU can host up to 8 simultaneous sessions.

KVM meets VDI
Using diverse remote access protocols the SIRA CPU provides KVM access from the KVM system to virtual machines and webbased interfaces in the same manner as accessing real PCs.

Security
The Draco tera KVM matrix system enables the parallel operations of several Draco SIRA CPUs – even with different network connections. It isolates the networks from each other like a firewall and thus allows secure access to „private cloud“ and „public cloud“ systems from one workstation.

RDP and the benefits of KVM
The KVM infrastructure adds extensive flexibility to a RDP session. RDP sessions can now be shared amongst multiple users, delivering better collaboration and control room solutions.
Immediate access Immediate access to real PCs and virtual machines is achieved through permanent connection. Switching between the two types occurs instantaneously, with no disruption or inconvenience to the users.

Single Sign On
For ease of operation, the system can be configured to support SSO. Single stage user identification is all that is required, either locally or via AD. User credentials are stored for future connection setup.

The Draco vario IP Gateway consoles provide seamless integration into Draco tera KVM matrix applications via IP network infrastructure.

The Draco vario IP Gateway consoles provide seamless integration into Draco tera KVM matrix applications via IP network infrastructure. Instead of using dedicated Cat X or fi ber optic links, the
new IP based consoles make use of Gigabit Ethernet topologies, allowing for more flexibility accessing via Draco tera KVM matrix switches attached target computers. KVM connections with up to 4K30 resolutions single head or 1920 x 1200 dual head are supported across 1G IP connections in real-time.

Since the core KVM matrix system still is based on easy to setup proprietary connectivity, it is way easier to provide individual consoles flexible IP access. Requirements on the network infrastructure are a sufficient bandwidth and low latency for maintaining the highest performance. Complexity such as Multicast, IGMP, Jumbo Frames are not to worry about, thanks to the hybrid KVM architecture.

To integrate a Draco vario IP Gateway CON into an already operational KVM system, users only need a Draco tera enterprise or Draco tera flex matrix switching system with an IP Gateway interface and 1G/10G network infrastructure. This hybrid KVM setup with its mix of proprietary and IP connected endpoints offers completely new levels of fl exibility and connectivity.

Product Features

• Single Head 4K30

• Realtime KVM Access via 1G IP networks
  to Draco tera matrix systems

• Compatible to existing Draco tera installs via Draco tera IP Gateway

• Local feed through port to attach a PC

• Compatible with all Draco vario chassis solutions

Web-Based Control Application


Tera Web Control is a media control application for Draco tera matrix systems via a normal web browser. The tool for the Draco tera matrix series adds intuitive user control to single and multi-console workstations.

Intuitive Switching Interface for Draco Tera Matrix Systems

Tera Web Control supplements the normal keyboard-based connection selection methods with a graphical user interface. Using their own mouse, operators can select and switch individual source connections to their personal workspace or select from a range of predefined connection
configurations.

The Tera Web Control application depicts the arrangement of consoles and monitors as connection layouts. Creating and changing individual layouts is intuitive and can be undertaken without programming knowledge.

The Tera Web Control is a license-based software module that runs via a normal web browser. It is specifically developed for controlling and switching Draco tera KVM matrices and is integrated into the matrix architecture. All access rights previously assigned in the matrix configuration are carried
forward to the Tera Web Control; making setup extremely simple whilst providing optimal access security.
