Press Releases

ATEN, the leading provider of IT and AV connectivity solutions, will present its wide product range and latest innovations under the theme “ATEN Pro AV and IT in your daily life” at Integrated Systems Europe 2018(February 6-9, Amsterdam RAI, Hall 8-E200). ISE is the largest event in Europe for system integration in the AV and IT industries. The ATEN team will launch game-changing products including a new line of presentation switchers as well as a 4K video over IP extender for digital signage and a series of USB-C docking stations.

The ATEN booth will feature 5 live demo areas:

• On the road – traffic control
• At work – IT/Datacenter management
• At work – conference room
• After hours – retail and digital signage
• At home – home office

The “At work-conference room” area will demonstrate ATEN’s brand new presentation switcher series (ATEN VP-series). Efficient meetings demand efficient systems. What attendees are looking for is to walk into a meeting space, connect their laptops and get down to business. The ATEN VP1920 is a nine input to two 4K output presentation switch that merges independent digital and analog switches and provides complete keyboard/mouse control of two PCs in one enclosure. The device is suited for any small-to-medium sized commercial environment such as meeting rooms, boardrooms, classrooms, or training rooms. The all-round models will become available throughout 2018 and support live streaming and file sharing via internet, allowing people to connect and cooperate with colleagues and partners around the world.

For “On the road-traffic control”, ATEN will demonstrate its KE8950, KE8952 4K HDMI KVM over IP extenders, which easily extend computers to consoles, supporting video walls with fast-switching capacity over fiber or HDMI. Connected through a network switch, the extenders allow access to multiple computer systems from any remote USB console in the local network. This solution is therefore ideally fit for control room environments, but can also be implemented in industrial automation or any other secure environment.

“After hours – retail and digital signage” will feature the ATEN VE8950Video over IP extender, which delivers visually lossless 4K AV signals with low latency over long distance via a local network of standard Gigabit network switch. The VE8950 provides a high quality, effective and easy-to-use digital signage and video wall solution with advantages that directly address the challenges system integrators encounter when implementing AV over IP systems.

The UH3230 USB-C Multiport Dock, which will be the main focus of “At home – home office” solutions, is but one of a large product family that connects USB-C computers to a multitude of peripherals, allowing your laptop to quickly dock and perform like a desktop computer. This multiport dock supports USB-C Power Delivery and GB Ethernet extension.

Other products on display will include the CL3800 Short Depth USB HDMI DVI VGA Dual Rail WideScreen Full HD LCD Console with USB Peripheral Support, KN1132V KVM over IP switch and KL1116V LCD with KVM over IP switch (On the job – IT /Datacenter management).

Victor Ramirez, Field Application Engineer at ATEN Infotech, says, “Following our well-established position as a developer of mass media distribution hardware, the VP1920 presentation switcher represents yet another expansion by ATEN into the Pro A/V industry. The VP1920 is the perfect complement to our VK series of control system solutions in terms of centralizing the control of commonly used devices during presentations or in a small-sized meeting room or huddle space.”

During ISE 2018, ATEN will also host a series of daily interactive sessions:

• 11:00 am: “HDBaseT, it’s everywhere” (15-20min.) – Sharing best practices of how HDBaseT can help to standardize your audiovisual and IT infrastructure.
• 3:00 pm:“ATEN in your daily life” (45-50min.) – Did you know that ATEN solutions can be found in places throughout your daily life? ATEN will let you know where their products are most commonly installed, sharing best practices in conferencing, digital signage, control rooms, and IT and datacenter management.

ATEN will also be a co-exhibitor at the HDBaseT Alliance Booth (5-S100), where we will debut the VE1832 True 4K HDMI/USB HDBaseT 2.0 Extender, which can extend True 4K video via single cat 6 cable up to 100 meters by Display Stream Compression (DSC) technology, support IR, RS232, Ethernet and USB bypass control, and support SPDIF Toslink and Coaxial audio I/O.

In addition, the booth will showcase our VE2812T HDMI & VGA HDBaseT Transmitter as well as HDBaseT 2.0 KVM Extender Series including CE620, CE624, and the newly released CE820, CE920.
