Do you trust proprietary enterprise control systems to secure your organization's sensitive data traffic?

Guntermann & Drunck and VuWall have launched the vsNEO, a new KVM-over-IP platform designed for control rooms and broadcast facilities. The system supports up to 96 endpoints and uses a dedicated network independent of standard corporate local area networks.

Why it matters

The platform aims to simplify the deployment of complex control room workstations by using a single hardware design for various node functions. This centralized approach reduces configuration overhead for facilities managing high-density broadcast or control environments.

The system features vsNEO-link transceivers measuring 105 millimeters wide, allowing three units to fit into a single rack space. Traffic is secured via AES-256 encryption, and the network operates independently from the corporate LAN.

The players

Guntermann & Drunck

A German manufacturer specializing in KVM hardware and signal management solutions for high-performance control environments.

VuWall

A developer of video wall control systems and software focused on integrated signal management for mission-critical command centers.

The details

The platform utilizes a versatile hardware design where each vsNEO-link unit functions interchangeably as a transmitter, receiver, video wall node, or mosaic station. Operators manage the environment through an on-screen display that provides live source thumbnails for selecting interfaces like the G&D CommandDeck. A vsNEO-center controller manages the network and includes DHCP functionality to automate device addressing.

The Tech Race

The vsNEO platform competes against established KVM-over-IP management platforms by consolidating disparate transceiver roles into a single hardware unit. This architectural shift marks a move toward modular, unified control ecosystems in professional broadcast environments.

System integrators can use an online configurator to generate topology diagrams and bills of materials before deployment. Users manage the system via familiar control interfaces like the CommandKeyboard or ControlVu.

The takeaway

The vsNEO platform reduces hardware complexity by utilizing a unified transceiver architecture for video wall and workstation control. Interested operators should track the release of updated interface firmware to confirm full compatibility with existing G&D or VuWall peripherals.
