With potential security risks associated with physical access to hard drives, storage and components, the ADDC SR10-FDD and SR20-FDD are ideal to provide security of sensitive data in a remote location, while providing the end user with high quality video and audio via Semtech’s AVX200T extender. The SR10-FDD is a standard 19” 2U, 16” deep rack drawer incorporating a bare metal Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) that consolidates up to 10 local desktop computers with sensitive data, while the SR20-FDD can incorporate up to 20 local desktop computers. The inclusion of Semtech’s AVX200T solution enhances the quality of the products providing uncompressed quality ultra-high-definition (4K) video, multi-channel audio, 480Mb/s USB2.0, and other control signals on a single copper category cable or optical fiber.

“Today’s business ecosystem necessitates the security of sensitive data,” said Michael Arnouse, chairman and CEO of ADDC. “This collaboration between ADDC and Semtech for the SR10-FDD and SR20-FDD incorporating Semtech’s AVX200T is unmatched as the thin client data remains secure without sacrificing the end user experience, with the highest quality of video.”

Semtech’s AVX200T device provides high levels of performance for AV extension applications, such as standalone point-to-point cable extenders, matrix switches and KVM extension. As the Pro AV industry moves to optical fiber infrastructure for many applications, the AVX200T uniquely targets long reach extension, providing transport over fiber from distances 300m to over 40km — pushing the envelope on multimedia connectivity between AV equipment and remote displays
