Fail-proof System Access and Easy Operation
German manufacturers G&D feel very much at home in especially safety-related control rooms. For decades, its products have been serving in these environments. But the use of KVM does not only significantly improve the operating sequences. Sophisticated redundancy concepts make the entire installation absolutely fail-proof. KVM technology plays an integral part with regard to safe and easy-to-operate system structures. The abbreviation KVM means keyboard, video and mouse and stands as a synonym for computer interfaces.
KVM for Ships, Harbors and Offshore
With the increasing application of IT installations in maritime environments, the requirements for optimized operation increase as well. KVM technology said it offers versatile ways to contribute to such concepts. For technicians and users interested in the technology, G&D will participate in Nor-Shipping; its Scandinavian partner Danmon Norge AS will present the KVM expert’s latest systems. Among the systems exhibited will be the IEC 60945 compliant KVM matrix DVICenter. System components to connect computers and peripheral devices for workplaces can already be used for a 1:1 extension…
Efficient Computer Control with G&D
For centuries, mariners have relied on paper maps to navigate the world’s oceans and waterways. Today, the computer technology used on board literally controls the vessel. Along with computers, KVM technology enters ships across the world. German manufacturers Guntermann & Drunck GmbH (G&D) were already working on KVM solutions before this technology had a name. The company was founded by Udo Guntermann and Martin Drunck in 1985. Maritime Reporter & Engineering News asked CEO Roland Ollek how a medium-sized German company has managed it to become part of numerous prestigious shipping projects.
G&D Certified for Maritime Navigation
For centuries, mariners have relied on paper maps to navigate the world’s oceans and waterways. Today, the computer technology used on bridges literally steers the ship. Along with computers, KVM technology enters ships across the world. KVM products from Guntermann & Drunck meet the requirements of international standard IEC-60945. The specification certifies navigation and radio communication equipment and systems for the use in maritime applications. Guntermann & Drunck (G&D) used the knowledge and experience gathered from projects in air…
