Key Digital Presents Unique Value Proposition for Government AV Systems

MOUNT VERNON, NY - Key Digital, Inc. – September 12, 2018Key Digital, the leaders in digital video and control systems, invites integrators and installers to explore the extensive and award winning Key Digital hardware and software ecosystem perfect for government applications, with special focus on the expansive Enterprise AV over IP system KD-IP922 and cost effective multi-view four input two output video matrix KD-MLV4x2Pro.

The KD-IP922 system is capable of creating a dynamic 100 panel video wall and is Key Digital’s impressive UHD/4K solution for AV over IP in command & control. The KD-IP922 system UHD/4K encoder and decoder are designed for distributed video, video walls, and USB/KVM data. Key Digital’s products can more than handle all of the needs of training, remote collaboration, command center operations, courts, councils, and conferences. Government applications depend on secure, unfailing, and steadfast technology for mission-critical operations, and Key Digital delivers unparalleled products that integrate seamlessly into the various vital technologies needed in any application. The KD-IP922 supports up to 10 vertical and 10 horizontal displays for an impressive maximum of a 100 panel video wall. The video wall configuration can be adjusted via Key Digital’s KDMS Pro®, the Key Digital App, or Compass Control Pro®. Key Digital has offered their Compass Control Pro® control system since 2012 and it is a native choice for integrating professional audio, video, security, surveillance, and lighting systems. Compass Control Pro® can be used in both national and local government applications to deliver powerful security and integration control capability.

Key Digital’s versatile KD-MLV4x2Pro addresses the needs of huddle spaces and command rooms. The KD-MLV4x2Pro provides multi-view functionality and seamless switching. This allows multiple users to present their content side-by-side on a single video display and to rotate primary presenters without long sync time on the connected display/projector. The multi-view feature set is ideal for embedding public address messages on desired screen layouts throughout signage installation sites. In order to ensure that a user-friendly interface is possible regardless of desired complexity and budget, KD-MLV4x2Pro supports a wide array of control options include IR, RS-232, TCP/IP via open API, and web control interface, in addition to Key Digital’s control system Compass Control Pro® which has the most native interface for the product. Whether connected to a local display via short HDMI cabling or to a display hundreds of feet away via HDBaseT, the KD=MLV4x2PRO epitomizes Key Digital’s focus on core applications.

“Huddle rooms in government applications are one of the biggest growth categories for us as a company, and one of the challenges that our dealers are facing is the lack of an intuitive control system that doesn’t require a technician or facilities director to use. We’ve made sure that Compass Control Pro® is easy and user friendly and that anyone can pick up that iOS device and start the room within seconds,” said Dan O’Donnell, Key Digital’s Vice President of Sales – North America.

“Another great thing about Compass Control Pro is that anyone can download the free app on an iOS device and play around in the demo software to see just how easy and intuitive the system really is. After downloading you’ll notice that we have seven different vertical markets in the demo mode that you can actually experience and see what it would be like to have the Compass Control Pro® in your installation. Simply select the government demo and you can peruse our use-friendly control system specific to this market, while keeping in mind that everything in Compass Control Pro® can be customized to the end-users ultimate desires.”

For control in government applications and more, Key Digital’s Compass Control Pro® is a fully integrated control system built from the ground up to use iOS devices to replace traditional control interfaces. The cost-effective software suite excels in video control functionality, a key element in the proliferation of digital signage and video collaboration. There are no restrictions on the design and layout of a Compass Control interface – if it can be envisioned, it can be executed! Compass Control Pro® also instantly integrates components from Compass Alliance Partners to create a simple plug-n-play system. Key Digital has partnered with Lutron, Leviton, Honeywell, KNX, and many additional industry leaders to enable Compass Control Pro’s® control drivers and pre-configured GUI templates to streamline system development and reduced programming time. Integrators and installers can download the Compass Control Pro® free iOS app from the App Store and use the demo mode to immediately see how the intuitive and sleek pre-built GUI can work in their applications. Everything can be customized, but by selecting any of the seven vertical markets integrators and installers can get a feel for how Compass Control Pro® is the right choice for control.
