## Operator Workplaces, Separated from the Computers

![KVM Development & Support – KVM-over-IP extenders and matrix systems](/wp-content/

KVM-over-IP puts the computers in a protected equipment room and keeps video, USB
and audio responsive at the operator’s desk, from a single Full HD workstation to
4K control-room matrices. SAT Solutions is partnering with **KVM Development & Support
GmbH** (Baden, Austria), which continues the proven kvm-tec product lines, to bring
these systems to industrial and critical operations in Thailand.

## Why KVM-over-IP?

 * **Protect Your PCs** — Move computers out of dust, heat and noise into a controlled
   room while operators work at quiet, ergonomic desks
 * **Extend & Route** — Carry video, USB and audio over CATx copper or fiber, as
   a direct link or through networked matrix switching
 * **Start Small, Scale Up** — Begin point-to-point and grow into a centrally managed
   matrix of up to 1,000 endpoints (Full HD) or 2,000 (4K)
 * **Real-Time Response** — Full HD 1920×1200 @ 60 Hz with < 1.38 ms latency; 4K
   with < 0.47 ms
 * **Built for Industrial Use** — 24 V industrial focus, fanless compact enclosures,
   rack-integrable, USB 2.0 up to 480 Mbit/s

_Copper (CATx) suits in-building runs; fiber suits long distances and electrically
challenging areas. Always confirm distances and interfaces against the data sheet
of the exact part number._

## Featured: EASYLINE — Simple, Lean Full HD KVM Matrix

EASYLINE makes everyday KVM-over-IP projects easier: compact hardware, standard 
network components, Full HD, USB 2.0, integrated audio and practical switching functions.
It delivers extension and matrix switching for **up to 56 endpoints without an external
Switching Manager**, which suits control rooms, production desks and industrial 
workstations.

![EASYLINE – six models: SmartEASY and MasterEASY, single/dual, copper/fiber](/wp-
content/uploads/2026/10/kvm-easyline-6-models.jpg)

 * **6 models** — SmartEASY (single/dual copper) and MasterEASY (single/dual, copper
   or fiber, with analog audio and redundant power/link)
 * **2 deployment modes** — point-to-point, or matrix switching of up to 56 endpoints
 * **3 smart functions** — Front Bridging, Back Bridging and Easy Cross Move (below)

### Front Bridging — One Operator, Two PCs

![Front Bridging: two PCs shown on two monitors from one remote dual extender](/
wp-content/uploads/2026/10/kvm-front-bridging.jpg)

Two local extenders are bridged to **one remote dual extender**. The operator sees
both PCs at the same time on two monitors and switches control by hotkey or mouse
movement. **No external KVM switch and no network switch** are needed: 3 units and
2 cables.

 * **Easy Cross Move** — control both PCs with a single keyboard and mouse by moving
   the cursor across screens
 * **Best fit:** Main + Backup PC setups that need redundancy, such as broadcast
   and industrial automation

![Front Bridging compared with a traditional KVM switch solution](/wp-content/uploads/
2026/10/kvm-front-bridging-vs-traditional.jpg)

| ONE OPERATOR, TWO PCs | TRADITIONAL | KVM MATRIX | FRONT BRIDGING | 
| Devices | 2 TX + 2 RX + KVM switch | 2 TX + 1 RX + network switch | **2 TX + 1 dual RX** | 
| Cabling | High | Medium | **Low** | 
| View both PCs at once | No | No | **Yes** |

### Back Bridging — One PC, Two Locations

![Back Bridging: one industrial PC operated from the plant floor and from the control
room](https://mlle50hbdrqj.i.optimole.com/cb:YfR8.552/w:auto/h:auto/q:mauto/ig:avif/https://sat-solutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/kvm-back-bridging.jpg)

One local dual extender is shared by **two remote single extenders**, so the same
PC can be monitored and controlled from two places:

| LOCATION 1 | LOCATION 2 | WHY SHARE THE SAME PC? | 
| Production floor | Control room | Operators work locally while the control room can monitor and take over | 
| Operator station | Engineering station | Engineers configure, commission and troubleshoot the same PC | 
| Equipment site | Service center | Remote service engineers access the PC for maintenance |

## KVM-over-IP + Leonton Industrial Network Switches

KVM Development matrices run on standard network infrastructure. Paired with SAT’s**
[Leonton industrial network switches](https://sat-solutions.com/products-services/products/leonton-industrial-network-switches/)**
that support **IGMP snooping**, they form a compact, cost-effective KVM matrix. 
PoE-capable KVM versions are available, and fiber and copper versions can be mixed
in the same system.
