The Orion multifunction DVI KVM Switch is a unique product that offers two operating modes in a single product, a KVM Switch or a Crosspoint switch. Each operating mode can also be configured to support several different system arrangements. Selecting / switching channels can be done by keyboard commands, serial string commands, or over a graphical web interface. The Orion interfaces to Rose Electronics DVI CATx or fiber extender family. These extenders offer single, dual, or quad head video, local access and serial/audio options. Each video source connects to a transmitter and each video display connects to a receiver. The transmitter and receiver model depends upon the application the Orion is set-up for.
