KSC CORE

KSC CORE is a highly available, adaptable control and monitoring system that allows for a fast and flexible control of entire broadcast chain for all areas of the broadcast world: planning, contribution, production, playout and distribution.

System Architecture

KSC CORE seamlessly integrates into existing network structures. A standard IT hardware backbone forms the basis of the solution. KSC CORE further enhances reliability with hardware and software redundancy concepts.

KSC Systems have taken care of intelligent broadcast control for more than 30 years. Talking native protocols to various manufacturers reduces the efforts on the manufacturers side and consequently enables the use of high-performance communication.

KSC CORE acts as the neutral intelligent communications translator between different devices no matter which physical control interface (TCP/IP or serial) is provided. Therefore, KSC Systems can seamlessly be integrated into existing (even vintage) broadcast device infrastructure.

By using an unlimited number of internal logic controls, KSC CORE adds to the standard functionality of device control and allows operators to design completely new functions.

At the intelligent and robust core of a KSC System, redundant servers in a cluster with up to 20 physical or virtual machines form the basis for 24/7 fail-safe operation. Automatic or manual (initiated from any KSC Control Panel in the system) fail-over switching guarantees for highest safety.

As monitoring and control systems are growing increasingly inseparable, KSC CORE introduces SNMP monitoring capabilities to the control system infrastructure by using a dedicated server unit for independent surveillance of all system components.

Hardware LCD control panels in a wide range of key formats, mounting options, and front panel designs made by BFE in Germany are available. Additionally, software based GUIs and Virtual Software Panels offer simplified and adaptable control.

BFEs own hardware development and manufacturing delivers GPI/O interfaces and dynamic labeling UMDs as well as Sync-Interfaces for frame-accurate switcher- and automation systems operation.

When converting from serial control signals into the TCP/IP-world, KSC CORE relies on industry-standard components with a proven track record of hundreds of installations.

KSC CORE Server Software
Is the KSC CORE software installed on the server unit and marks the basis for every KSC CORE control system. Depending on the area of application, the server softwares basic functionality can be further enhanced with KSC CORE Server Software Extensions, making your application your own.

KSC CORE Client Software
Is the KSC CORE software running on a client workstation to setup and control KSC CORE. The client can also be tailored to your specific needs by various KSC CORE Client Software Extensions, such as the GFX Unit for easily designing functional GUIs, or Matrix View for matrix-based routing and real-time status information.
