KaVoom! EVS (External Video Switching)


KaVoom! EVS is a keyboard-video-mouse solution for people who want to use an external (hardware) switch for video, but a software switch for the keyboard and mouse.

An external video switch is either:

A monitor video-input switch. Some monitors have two or more video input connectors, and a switch on the monitor allows the user to select between them. Or,
A KVM switch. A regular KVM switch (with no keyboard or mouse attached) can be used to select which computer you want to view on your monitor.  

KaVoom! EVS is not useful to you if you have just a single monitor and a hardware KVM switch. You can just plug your keyboard and mouse into the KVM switch and they get switched along with the monitor.

However, let's suppose that you have a monitor with two video input connectors, each connected to a different computer. In the old days you would need to have a keyboard and mouse plugged into each computer, and you would move from one keyboard to the other whenever you switched the monitor from one computer to the other. KaVoom! EVS acts as a keyboard-mouse switch, allowing you to use the same keyboard and mouse for both computers.

We also have a customer who has four monitors and ten computers, and each monitor is connected to each computer through a KVM switch, giving him four 10-monitor systems. The hardware KVM switches allow him to
switch each monitor independently so that at any given time he is looking at selected portions of each computer. KaVoom! EVS synchronizes the mouse on all computers so that regardless of which monitor or which computer he's looking at, the mouse appears in the expected position. KaVoom! EVS also switches the keyboard and mouse buttons so that as he moves his mouse from one monitor to another, the keyboard and mouse buttons are always active on the expected computer.

KaVoom! EVS is currently used by stock traders who have many computers and many monitors.
