Avocent AMX Broadcast Diagram
Post production environments and broadcast machine rooms have become increasingly dependent on computers to generate and manipulate video and audio content. Some of the world's largest and most innovative broadcast environments in the post production industry, including FOX, ABC and CNN have deployed the Avocent AMX KVM switching solution to efficiently manage access to their machine room computers and broadcast devices.
Using the AMX switching solution, broadcasters can consolidate control of their machine room computers and devices into a single user interface. This centralized interface lets operators and engineers in multiple locations access the same devices from the live studio.
