For waste management and recycling companies, a reliable operation and complete monitoring of the relevant hardware and software processes is vital. These applications are hosted on heterogeneous servers and computers that are often back-racked in central server rooms for effective IT maintenance and an ergonomic workplace design at the operator console.

All processes and components are monitored and controlled in the central control room. Here, a complex interaction of professional KVM matrix switching, infrastructure and IP solutions ensures reliable 24/7 operation.

For this particular environment Black Box provides concepts and complete solutions. While planning the solution with you, our experienced experts put special emphasis on the flawless interaction of all components used both in KVM and IP technology, especially as those two fields continue to merge.

Benefits from these advantages

  • More than 20 years of experience
  • Different technologies and systems available to meet your requirements
  • Individual solutions tailored to your budget and needs
  • Complete service with joint planning, design, products, installation, training and maintenance
  • Single point of contact and one source for KVM, IP and infrastructure solutions.

###Control and monitoring in control rooms

Modern control rooms are equipped with video screens, as well as operator consoles with multiple monitors, and a variety of peripherals. Complex KVM matrix switches and video wall controllers provide the required interfaces and image formats in the right place at the right time plus fast switching between the available sources. Backup strategies create 24/7 availability.

###Remote control of single recycling and incineration plants

Some control systems of recycling and incineration plants are housed in environments where the conditions are not suitable for a workplace. KVM extenders allow plant operators to use remote controls - in real time and with the usual setup. With simple KVM switches several control systems can be controlled and monitored from one operator station.

###Ethernet access for remote plants

The processing of waste takes place in large recycling and incineration plants, which are often spread across different locations. To integrate and monitor these plants into the process automation, a connection to the enterprise network is required. Media converters via fibre optic cabling and Ethernet extenders connecting through standard telephone wires provide stable, high-speed data transmission over long distances.

###Networking under extreme environmental conditions

During the recycling process and waste incineration, chemical reactions take place that impose extreme requirements on the equipment and network technology. Hardened Ethernet switches feature high-temperature ranges, are dust or waterproof and can even be used in explosive environments allowing for these areas to be integrated into process automation.
