Congrats IHSE: Awarded “Best in Show” at InfoComm16
We congratulate one of our newest vendors, IHSE, for being awarded “Best in Show” for the DRACO tera compact UNI | 480c Series at InfoComm16!
The Draco tera compact UNI is designed for smaller to mid-sized KVM requirements using backplane technology allowing high speed data signals such as SDI and USB 3.0 to be switched typical to a routing switcher.
