KVM Consoles/Extenders

High-Performance KVM

Emerald SE provides users with a seamless desktop experience anywhere on a TCP/IP network while allowing the actual hardware to be housed in a corporate data center or in the cloud. The performance of Emerald SE allows easy deployment on standard corporate networks and even across WANs. The solution enables the same experience of a desktop PC even for media-rich applications, like video and photo editing.

Emerald SE supports DisplayPort video with resolutions up to 1920 x 1200, transparent USB 2.0, and analog audio. Link them in a point-to-point KVM extension over CATx up to 328 ft./100 m or even farther using an IP or WAN connection. Or connect multiple transmitters and receivers to an Emerald or IP switch to create a matrix switching setup.

Virtualization Support

Emerald SE simplifies access to both physical and virtual servers with high-performance connectivity to virtual machines, supporting VMware®, Microsoft®; HyperV®, and Citrix®, using RDP 8.1/RemoteFX.

Limitless Scaling

Your Emerald KVM network may start small, but is scalable to meet your future needs just by adding endpoints. Connect up to 32 endpoints; no additional KVM management appliance, cards, or chassis is required. For larger deployments, use our Boxilla KVM management solution.

A welcome addition to the Emerald product family, Emerald SE works seamlessly with the rest of the Emerald product family and these popular Black Box KVM product families:

• DKM proprietary, direct-connect KVM system
• Freedom II Multi-Monitor Switch with Glide-and-Switch technology
• ControlBridge, our system for one-touch, multisystem control
• Boxilla KVM manager

Industry-Leading KVM that Consumes Zero Rack Space

The Emerald ZeroU DVI Transmitter is a high-performance KVM solution that consumes zero rack space, enabling you to add more critical IT equipment to your data center. This transmitter works with the Emerald SE Receiver to provide a seamless desktop experience anywhere on a TCP/IP network while allowing the actual hardware to be securely housed in a corporate data center.

Emerald enables the same high fidelity experience of a desktop PC even for media-rich applications, like watching videos, photo editing with Photoshop, or 3D design with AutoCAD. Best of all, Emerald ZeroU is developed and manufactured by Black Box, so you can trust its build, performance, and reliability.

Visually Lossless Video

This powerful KVM solution delivers the high-definition video quality users today require to perform their jobs. It supports visually lossless DVI video up to 1920 x 1200.

Central Management

As with all other Emerald components, the ZeroU Transmitter is managed by our award-winning Boxilla KVM Manager and is fully interoperable with the Emerald SE Receivers.

Low Bandwidth Requirements

Emerald ZeroU provides outstanding KVM functionality without impacting your network performance. It requires less than 40 Mbps to provide 1080p video and fast switching speeds.

USB Powered

The ZeroU Transmitter won't clutter your workspace with wires. It is powered over USB, which eliminates the need for extra cables.

Low Smoke, Zero Halogen Cables

Cables on the DVI Zero U Transmitters are constructed with LSZH jackets. LSZH cables may be required in potentially poorly ventilated areas such as onboard aircraft, military vehicles, submarines, and ships.
