The A.I.M. management server is a control suite which transforms AdderLink Infinity extenders into a digital matrix solution. Using standard IP infrastructure it is possible to route any user station to any computer attached to the network without any compromises to video quality or control. It allows co–operative sharing of computers and the multicasting of video to any destination.
- Intuitive, multi-lingual user interface
- Multiple switching methods
- Configurable user access rights
- Full audit trail
- Easy centralized management
- Open API for 3rd party control
Secure access and communications
Using TLS (transport layer security) and HTTPS, communications between AdderLink units and A.I.M. and between A.I.M. and the outside world are all secure.
Redundant operation
For 24/7 reliability a second hot A.I.M. can be added to ensure constant uptime and with dual NIC interfaces on every AdderLink Infinity unit, systems can be easily designed for maximum resilience.
User access rights management and audit trails
Administrators can manage access rights to each device on a user by user basis either manually through the web browser or automatically using Active Directory. Reports showing the history of devices, user logins and device connections can be viewed and exported to a CSV file or via SYSLOG.
Easy centralized management
Accessed via a web browser, the dashboard gives a real time overview of system connections and users. Tabs enable you to navigate between settings and device or user sub-menus.
Control Channel and Presets connections
A.I.M. can be used to make connections between an individual pair of transmitter and receiver devices centrally from within the management system. Using Presets, a list of pre-defined connections, multiscreen, video wall or signage setups can be forced with a single click.
Internationalization
The user desks can select different keyboard configurations to suite their requirements and as a global setting select the language for the OSD from a choice of over 14 languages.
FEATURES – Intuitive user interface
On screen display at each user station
Users login and choose channel connections from an intuitive OSD similar to that of a Digital TV. Users can also use Presets to change channels for multiple screens across multiple receivers.
Remote OSD
The remote OSD allows the user to “push” video and control to another station or to a video wall or projector.
Favourites and hotkey switching
Each user can select their favourite channels within the OSD and allocate a hotkey for fast switching between channels.
Choice of connection modes
Administrators can choose to give users the ability to connect in three modes: View only, Shared or Exclusive. Each permitted mode is then made available within the OSD.
Fast video and USB switching
The switching time between computers is less than 1 second to provide a quality user experience.
