According to estimates from Jon Peddie Research, the CG industry will exceed $100 billion by 2014. One CG professional, Clayton Douglas, has worked in a wide range of environments — spanning big FX houses to small boutiques.

Working out of his home office, Douglas found the need to be able to access both of his computers easily and without issue. Leveraging the ATEN CM0264, Clayton noted that he’s been able to streamline business operations and focus more time on CG and motion graphics projects for films, commercials and Web. Said Douglas: “The CM0264 provides stable cross-platform switching and works with just about every device under the sun!”

Expanding upon the company’s already extensive line of space-saving console extenders, ATEN has launched this month new DVI- and USB-based KVM extenders. The CE600/CE602 KVM Extenders, utilizing CAT5e cabling, allow users to control a server, computer or KVM switch from a remote console (USB keyboard, monitor and mouse).

The CE600/CE602 extenders are ideal for manufacturing, security, healthcare and more. In industrial environments, for example, users can access and configure computers located in hazardous environments from a remote, safe location. The new KVM extenders are also applicable in retail stores and restaurants where touchscreen kiosks and barcode scanners can be accessed using the units’ built-in RS-232 serial port.
