Aten VW3620 Modular Video Wall Processor

Purpose-built to meet the increasingly stringent system performance requirements in mission-critical applications, the VW3620 is a 7U, modular True 4K video wall processor with 7 input slots, 5 output slots, and 2 function board slots, which also work as input board slots, to support up to 36 input sources and 20 display terminals while being able to handle True 4K sources* without delay. Advanced 4K@60 4:4:4 scaling technology plus the signal processing capability allow the VW3620 to deliver astonishing, accurate True 4K imagery.

The VW3620 is cascadable for backup / expansion purpose. The Backup Mode enables the replication of all the system settings and configurations across two VW3620s in real-time, so when the primary unit encounters a failure or becomes unresponsive, the backup unit automatically takes control of the video wall output with no manual intervention, ensuring uninterrupted display performance and minimizing downtime in mission-critical environments. As for the Expansion Mode, up to three VW3620s can be daisy-chained together to run as a unified system to drive a larger video wall of up to 60 displays while allowing for centralized control by the primary unit, synchronized video output clocking across all units, and consistent, frame-accurate playback without tearing or drift. In addition, the hot-standby CPU control board and dual hot-swappable power modules add an extra level of reliability. With input / output cards and cooling fan module also coming hot-swappable, the VW3620 guarantees 24/7 operation and easy maintenance in scenarios where system malfunction or shutdown is unacceptable.

Thanks to ATEN’s cutting-edge windowing technology, the VW3620 supports multiple video walls with varying resolutions. Nearly restriction-free window placement functionality allows source cropping, overlap, and more, displaying a tailored view of every piece of crucial information. Organization logos, color schemes, calendar, clock, and scrolling text can be added to the video walls to widely broaden applications. Moreover, the VW3620 can be configured and controlled via various methods to overcome geographical limitations, from RS‑232, Ethernet, the front panel buttons, web GUI to RESTful API. Integration with ATEN Control System and the 3rd party devices is allowed through its RS-232 and Ethernet interfaces as well as the support for RESTful APIs.

The VW3620’s unrivalled video wall processing power, configurability and reliability have made it suitable for a range of mission-critical video wall applications, including command centers, control rooms, public security organizations, governments, or other large-scale digital signage scenarios such as exhibitions, broadcasting, and education organizations.
