At the Center for Special Surgery in Fargo, North Dakota the patients, the staff, and their colleagues have come to expect the highest of standards for technological advances. The modern outpatient surgical facility contains fully equipped operating rooms and private recovery spaces with the latest and greatest in medical and surgical developments. To help integrate a modern concept for viewing surgeries the facility needed assistance from the audio-visual world for viewing content in the highest possible resolution.
Using Key Digital’s KD-Pro8x8D professional matrix switcher and the KD-X444L extender kit Site On Sound was able to deliver the video
quality and high-speed switching desired. The staff at the Center for Special Surgery loves that they can view multiple surgeries at one time from other surgical rooms. As an outpatient surgery center the same surgeon will often be tasked with multiple surgeries running back-to-back. While working with one patient the staff can monitor the prep work in an adjourning surgical room to save time and keep the rooms sterile by reducing the amount of foot traffic in and out of the rooms.
The KD-X444L was a crucial tool enabling the extension of UHD/4K video resolutions with HDR10 content over a single network wire from
the surgical microscopes. KD-X444L supports extension of 18Gbps signals up to 100m via a single CAT6A shielded twisted pair or CAT7 cable.
