BENGALURU, India – Feb 06: ATEN Advance, the leading provider of KVM, AV/IT connectivity, and management solutions, today announced the launch of the KE8980MR 4K Quad-Display KVM over IP Multi-View Receiver, a high-performance solution designed to redefine how operators monitor and control IT infrastructure in mission-critical environments. Supporting multiview access windows for up to 16 physical and/or virtual servers across four displays at a single workstation, Operators can freely position server windows across four screens, resize them as needed, and overlay multiple server windows to create a customized monitoring layout.

To ensure intuitive and uninterrupted workflows, the KE8980MR features ATEN’s exclusive Boundless Switching MX™, allowing users to switch between systems in real time by simply moving the mouse cursor across displays or windows, eliminating the need for manual switching.

During active monitoring, the KE8980MR can switch to Operation Mode, featuring Panel Array™ that displays up to 108 servers in a 6×6 layout for centralized management and streamlined oversight. Simultaneously, it highlights a selected server with ultra-low-latency performance on a dedicated screen, ensuring precise, real-time control without compromising visibility of the overall server environment.

Built for operational agility, the KE8980MR minimizes hardware complexity while optimizing coordination across teams. Its robust capabilities make it ideally suited for high-pressure environments such as broadcasting, air traffic control, surveillance, and other critical operations – delivering streamlined multiview performance without increasing the system footprint.

Key Features of the KE8980MR 4K Quad-Display KVM over IP Multi-View Receiver:  

• 4K60 Visual Clarity across Four Displays – Delivers ultra-sharp 4K60 DCI resolution across 2 HDMI and 2 DisplayPort outputs, ensuring precise monitoring for real-time decision-making in control rooms.
• Multiview Control with Boundless Switching MX™ –Manage up to 16 servers in individually movable, resizable, and overlapping windows across four displays to create a fully customized and efficient layout.
• Centralized Monitoring with Panel Array™ – Switch to operation mode to focus on one server while monitoring up to 108 others in a 6×6 grid – streamlining the monitoring experience.
• Virtual Machine Access via VNC/RDP – Supports access to VMware®, Microsoft®, and Citrix™ environments through RDP and VNC protocols.
• Seamless Collaboration Across Physical and Virtual Systems – Matrix-based design enables flexible switching between physical and virtual machines for dynamic IT infrastructures.
• Customizable Workspace Presets – Save and switch multiview layouts across up to four screens and all associated server connections to support efficient user transitions in shared environments.
• KVM Session Recording with CCVSR – Integrates CCVSR to record operator sessions, including video, keyboard, and mouse activity, for auditing and review.

“With the launch of the KE8980MR, we’re introducing a game-changing solution for mission-critical control rooms,” said Nicholas Lin, Senior Vice President of ATEN. “By enabling real-time monitoring and intelligent control of both physical and virtual servers across four displays at a single workstation, the KE8980MR enhances situational awareness, streamlines collaboration, and boosts operational efficiency – all through seamless multiview control, 4K60 video clarity, and flexible workspace presets.”
