Smooth Operations

Air traffic control towers are the heartbeat of airport operations, responsible for ensuring the safety and efficiency of flights through precise management of critical communications and equipment. Tasked with monitoring real-time data to prevent collisions, regulate air traffic flow, and coordinate ground and air crews, these high-pressure environments demand fast, reliable, and secure technology.
At one of the world's busiest international airports, an air traffic control tower faced the challenge of upgrading its infrastructure to meet the demands of next-generation workflows. To enhance situational awareness, improve operational efficiency, and future-proof its systems, the tower sought a cutting-edge, high-performance KVM over IP solution designed specifically for mission-critical ATC operations.

Requirements

Enhanced Visualization for Mission-Critical Monitoring

Support for wide and high-definition displays for expansive and clear visuals to enhance situational awareness and enable detailed monitoring.
Needs compatibility with high-resolution workflows and meet radar-specific display requirements.
For smooth and accurate visual tracking, solution must deliver responsive and precise visuals for real-time decision-making during critical operations.

Seamless Performance & Real-time Control

Instant access to systems to ensure reliable connections to servers for immediate control of essential tasks.
Quick and efficient switching to reduce delays during transitions, ensuring uninterrupted operation in high-pressure scenarios.
Must have consistent visual quality in order to clear and accurate visuals that support effective decision-making.

Reliable, Secure, & Resilient Operations

Need a reliable, secure and resilient system to ensure continuous operation during network or power failures.
Enhanced Security Features that safeguard data and systems from threats with robust encryption and authentication.
Proactive monitoring and alerts are required in order to provide immediate notifications of issues, enabling swift resolution.

Flexible & Scalable for ATC-Specific Needs

System management should allow for intuitive control and quick switching between primary and backup systems.
Some level of legacy system Support is required to ensure integration with existing infrastructure, including serial devices.
Scalability is a must so that the solution can adapt to the unique requirements of various ATC environments, from control towers to area control centers.

The ATEN solution takes ATC radar monitoring to the next level with superior visual clarity, seamless communication, and innovative features.

Benefits

Precision Visuals for Enhanced Situational Awareness

Ultra-Wide Displays (32:9) provide expansive views to improve decision-making with industry-leading 12-bit Deep Color accuracy for critical visuals. 2K x 2K resolution provides crystal-clear radar monitoring and the high refresh rate (1920 x 1080 @ 240Hz) provides smooth and precise visuals for real-time operations. Lossless video quality ensures degradation-free output.

Seamless Control for High-Pressure Environments

Fast Switching enables seamless transitions between systems, reducing delays during high-pressure situations.
Quad-view displays and centralized access minimize the need for multiple workstations, while customizable hotkeys simplify switching to reducing complexity during peak operational hours.
PS/2 connection for emergency stop and remote user control adds an extra layer of operational safety.

Optimized Workflows & Communication

Consolidated workflows are ensured by quad-view displays with centralized access that minimizes the need for multiple workstations, allowing controllers to focus on critical decisions rather than device management.
USB isochronous transmission provides support for USB camera communications, ensuring smooth and reliable user interactions.

Robust Redundancy for Uninterrupted Operations

LAN and Power redundancy maintains operations during failures, while proactive alerts provide immediate notifications to enable swift issue resolution.
Redundant server infrastructure provides seamless failover between main and backup systems, with power/network failover for uninterrupted functionality.
