AWARD-WINNING: Emerald® DESKVUE

Emerald DESKVUE, a new small form-factor receiver as part of the Emerald ecosystem, provides users with a completely new concept for creating their own tailored individual workspace. DESKVUE allows users to access up to 16 different physical or virtual systems simultaneously, replacing multiple receivers and thus reducing system complexity and costs. All systems are displayed as individual windows on up to four 4K monitors (with a maximum of one 5K )monitor. Users can arrange these windows in any way, similar to a video wall, but at their workspaces. Switching the systems happens automatically in the background as the users perform their tasks, removing any requirement for manual switching commands or even noticing the system change.
