Stand 10.A27
Black Box zeigt die kontinuierliche Weiterentwicklung seiner IP-basierten Steuerungslösung Emerald. Diese ist mit neuen Funktionen ausgestattet und soll so den Betrieb von Kontrollräumen optimieren, virtuelle und hybride Workflows unterstützen und die Systemintegration vereinfachen. Das Emerald-Ökosystem soll einen latenzarmen sicheren Zugriff auf physische und virtuelle Maschinen über LAN-, WAN- und Internetverbindungen ermöglichen und damit alle Einsatzszenarien von Broadcast und Live-Event-Produktion bis hin zum Transport und zur Postproduktion unterstützen.
Die Produktneuheiten in der Übersicht:
Emerald IP-Based Control Solution
The Black Box Emerald IP KVM solution serves as an infinitely scalable universal access system, giving users the flexibility to connect to both physical and virtual machines, along with anywhere, anytime IP access over an existing IP network, WAN, or even the internet. Advanced security and industry-leading minimal bandwidth consumption enable new ways of configuring control room infrastructure for maximum expandability, incorporating local and remote users with simplified workflows, and mastering distributed control rooms. Interoperability between 4K and HD video and one-touch control room setups combine with a high degree of automation through Emerald's APIs to give users valuable flexibility and ease of use.
NEW: Scalable Visualization With Emerald DESKVUE and Video Wall Integration
The advanced Emerald DESKVUE receiver from Black Box now supports direct connection of up to four multiview displays, which may be desktop-mounted, on a stand, or wall-mounted. Operators can also extend their workspace to larger video walls by deploying additional DESKVUE units. Controlled from the same DESKVUE user console, each unit powers four LCD displays. The latest DESKVUE enhancements also enable direct control of LED-based video walls, and visitors to the company’s stand will be able to compare LCD and LED display performance side by side.
Stand visitors also will see the debut of a new DESKVUE capability: support for display arrays with up to 28 monitors, complete with display edge compensation to ensure a clean, continuous image across the wall.
NEW: Enhanced System Integration and Web Access
The Black Box Emerald system now makes it even easier to integrate virtual machines with dual-head (two-channel) video output. Operators can control and monitor both video channels using any Emerald PE or DESKVUE-powered console. Emerald® DESKVUE also introduces new functionality that allows users to open web pages directly from the Emerald IP connection rather than connect to a separate computer source. This innovation streamlines access to dashboards, monitoring tools, and control interfaces directly from the KVM console.
BRAND NEW: Emerald Remote App — Now for macOS
At IBC2025, Black Box is introducing the industry’s first software-based KVM receiver for macOS. Part of the Emerald Remote App suite, this new release gives users full-featured access to multiple physical or virtual systems without the need for external hardware. Designed with remote broadcast professionals in mind, the Emerald Remote App ensures instant, secure connectivity from anywhere in the world, with support for multiple displays, and centralized authentication via Boxilla. Whether on Windows or macOS, users can now turn any laptop into a high-performance KVM receiver for the Emerald IP network.
