Adder Technology has announced the latest addition to its ADDERLink INFINITY range, the ADDERLink INFINITY 3000 (ALIF3000).

The new keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) receiver provides virtual machine (VM) access and delivers instant switching between unlimited virtual and physical environments from a single human-machine interface (HMI).

The benefits of accessing virtualised environments via a single KVM are gaining momentum as organisations and software applications recognise the flexibility and growth opportunities. Yet while the adoption of virtualisation is rising, many companies are still reluctant to move wholly away from physical machines.

The ALIF3000 has been designed to seamlessly and securely integrate VM access into an existing ADDERLink INFINITY network without disruption, downtime or costly replacement fees. Built on the successful Intel®1 X-86 microprocessor architecture, the ALIF3000 delivers pixel-perfect picture quality, audio and universal serial bus (USB) 2.0 to single or dual screens over a single, one-gigabyte ethernet (GBE) link.

Adder Technology CEO Adrian Dickens said: “It was important for us to ensure our customers can move to, and access, virtual environments at their own pace whilst preserving their initial KVM investment. The ALIF3000 enables exactly that, and has been developed to enable our customers to seamlessly add secure VM access into their existing workflows, at a time that is right for them, without enduring unnecessary costs.”

By integrating the ALIF3000 with the ADDERLink INFINITY Manager (AIM), information technology (IT) administrators can clearly define secure user access rights to ensure that target personal computers (PCs) can only be accessed by permitted users – giving business owners peace of mind and assurance.
