In modern control centres and control rooms, information must be available at all times, clearly visualised and securely controllable. Knürr designs and implements the necessary media system technology as an integral part of your control room solution: from KVM and signal management, through large-screen displays and workstation monitors, to audio, video and control technology.
The result is a coordinated end-to-end solution in which the room, workstation, visualisation and operation work together seamlessly.

Media system technology
from a single source:
When information is key, technology must be easy to use.
KVM systems & source control
KVM systems enable the centralised control of various computers, servers and applications via keyboard, video and mouse. In control rooms, this helps to maintain a tidy workspace, allows sensitive equipment to be kept out of sight, and provides quick access to relevant systems.
Knürr integrates KVM systems into control room workstations and system environments. This allows various computers, applications and sources to be operated centrally and displayed on workstation monitors or large-screen systems.
• Less equipment in the workplace.
• Improved access for maintenance and servicing.
• Centralised, intuitive control of various systems.
• A tidy, ergonomic working environment.
• Support for the secure outsourcing of technical operations.
Large-screen technology & visualisation
Large-screen displays provide a shared information platform for teams in the control room. They visualise situational overviews, camera feeds, process data, alarms, dashboards and operational information for multiple people simultaneously.
Knürr designs and integrates large-screen display solutions, including support structures, display mounts, signal distribution, control systems and ergonomic integration into the room.
• A shared overview for the whole team.
• Flexible display of different sources.
• Ergonomic viewing angles and optimal readability.
• Easy-to-maintain display mounting.
• Integration into room and workplace designs.
Audio, video and media technology
Control rooms often require more than just monitors and keyboards. Depending on the application, this may also include audio transmission, conferencing equipment, situation briefings, signal switching, camera integration or presentation technology.
Knürr combines these requirements into a coordinated media system solution and ensures that the components used work seamlessly with the workstation, the room and the IT infrastructure.
• A Knürr OPX user interface for key functions.
• Customisable presets for ergonomic settings.
• Integration of KVM and screen control.
• Reduced operational complexity.
• Retrofittable and modularly expandable.
Central control system with Knürr Operator Experience (OPX)
OPX allows workstation functions, display walls and KVM systems to be controlled via a central control unit. This makes complex technical functions more accessible to operators.
OPX supports control concepts that integrate ergonomic workstation settings, lighting, visualisation and system access into a single interface.
• Centralised control of relevant workstation and system functions.
• Integration of KVM and screen control.
• Customisable presets and scenarios.
• Reduced operational complexity during live operation.
• Suitable for single workstations and networked control room environments.
Signal management, cable routing & technical integration
Professional media systems must not only function properly, but also be professionally integrated, documented and designed for ease of maintenance. In 24/7 environments in particular, structured cable routing, accessible technical areas and clear interfaces are crucial.
Knürr takes these requirements into account right from the planning stage of workstations and room layouts.
• Clear separation of power, data and signal paths.
• Integrated cable management within the workstation.
• Improved accessibility for maintenance and servicing.
• Less visible cabling at the operator station.
• A clear structure for operation and expansion.

General enquiries
What does Knürr mean by ‘media systems engineering’?
Media systems engineering involves the integration of KVM systems, large-screen display technology, audio/video equipment, visualisation, signal management and centralised control into a control room solution.
Does Knürr also supply KVM systems for control rooms?
Yes. Knürr integrates KVM systems into control room workstations and technical infrastructures. This enables different systems to be operated centrally and uniformly, and information to be displayed on specific workstation monitors or large-screen displays.
Can large-screen displays be incorporated into the control room design?
Yes. Knürr designs and integrates large-screen display solutions, including display mounting, support structures, control systems, signal distribution and ergonomic integration into the room.
Does audiovisual equipment also form part of the scope of services?
Yes. Knürr incorporates audio, video and media technology as part of a comprehensive control room solution – for example, for situation briefings, presentations, signal distribution or centralised control.
What is the advantage of a one-stop solution?
Operators receive a comprehensive, integrated concept covering the workstation, visualisation, control systems and technical infrastructure. Interfaces are taken into account at an early stage, coordination efforts are reduced, and implementation can be coordinated centrally.
Can Knürr also modernise existing control rooms?
Yes. Existing control rooms can be upgraded and modernised with KVM systems, large-screen display technology, media technology or centralised control solutions. The specific implementation depends on the existing infrastructure and project requirements.
What is Knürr OPX?
Knürr OPX (Operator Experience) is a centralised control solution for workstations, video walls and KVM systems. It supports both single-user solutions and networked systems, and features an API for integration into existing IT infrastructures.
Why does it make sense to outsource technical services?
The offloading of technology, particularly through virtualisation, decouples workstations from physical hardware and enables a centralised, flexible and efficiently managed IT infrastructure.
