Basic principle

What a classroom screen sharing system does in a computer lab

A hardware-based classroom screen sharing system connects the screens of a computer lab through cabling of its own instead of through software on the PCs: the picture from one workstation is available at every other seat, whatever operating system runs there.

What travels is an HDMI signal with sound, uncompressed. There is no encoding step to cost time and no buffer to hold it back. The sockets on the boxes are DVI-D and can be screwed down – in a permanently installed system that stays put where a plain connector would slowly work its way out.

Because the system has a signal layer of its own, it does not need the building network. Nothing is installed on the PCs, no service runs in the background and no account is created. For a procurement office that is the difference between an application to the IT department and a trade that stays inside the room.

Products

Four product areas, one signal path

Four building blocks are available: the training system in the room, the signal distribution behind it, the controls in front of it and – where two rooms are to work together – the link to the outside. Which of them a system needs is decided by the room.

Training system

alphadidact® Digital

The core system: every workstation has a box that can send and receive. In a star layout a system grows through satellites to as many as 100 workstations, in a ring layout to as many as 50 student positions.

Across sites

Hybrid systems

Signal path

How the picture travels through the room

In a star layout every workstation has its own cable running to the central unit. There it is switched which seat is sending and which seats receive it.

Star layout with central unit. Built out with satellites it reaches 100 workstations; the ring layout is designed for 50 student positions.Central unitReceiving seats

Applications

Where the systems are installed

alphadidact® Digital works in computer labs at schools and vocational colleges, in PC pools and lecture theatres at universities, in skills labs for dentistry, anatomy and microscopy, in the training centres of tax authorities, police forces and armed forces, and in corporate training rooms.

Quotation

Planning a room

A floor plan of the room and the number of seats are enough for a quotation. In return you receive a proposal for how the room is equipped – without obligation.
