RP5525 | Raptor

The Raptor RP5525 monitor is equipped with EIZO’s Intelligent Display Platform (IDP) developed specifically for ATC. The IDP enables simultaneous display of video signals from up to four independent sources. Traditional Picture-in-Picture (PinP) and Picture-by-Picture (PbyP) functions are limited to a certain number of predefined layouts, providing a relatively inflexible display environment. With IDP, users have complete freedom to place each window anywhere on the screen, as well as scale and assign layer order priority.

The Raptor RP5525 monitor offers EIZO’s SwitchLink internal switching management technology as an option. SwitchLink enables seamless switching of keyboard and mouse without the need for an external KVM switch. Up to four video signal feeds can be connected to the monitor with the ability to connect an additional two auxiliary monitors, for an up to six-workstation configuration operated by a single keyboard and mouse.

Simply moving the mouse cursor across each window will instantaneously and automatically switch workstation inputs. The response time when switching mouse input to another workstation is approximately 0 ms for completely smooth operation.

To toggle between workstations, EIZO also implements keyboard hotkey switching with SwitchLink. By activating a predefined hotkey, USB control of the keyboard and mouse will switch to another workstation.

With SwitchLink, video sources connect to the monitor directly, eliminating the need for a KVM switch.

SwitchLink is built directly into the Raptor RP5525 monitor, eliminating the need for the KVM switch and additional cables for a streamlined installation.

Since SwitchLink is built into the monitor, it does not require any additional power connections, reducing power requirements of the system.

SwitchLink removes some of the risk for compatibility or driver issues caused by traditional KVM switches. The Raptor RP5525 monitor and built-in switching component are developed by the same engineering team at EIZO to ensure smooth handshaking between internal components and optimum performance throughout the lifetime of the monitor.

In mission-critical ATC where every second counts, air traffic control officers (ATCO) need to be aware if there is any disruption to the image on screen. EIZO’s unique Last Frame Display function detects if the video signal is disrupted and automatically displays the last available frame captured from the visual system accompanied by a text overlay to inform the ATCO of the status. This ensures the ATCO is immediately made aware of the disruption so appropriate action can be taken, such as following emergency protocols or accessing a backup system, while providing the last available visual information to refer to until the issue is addressed.

Air traffic management systems are comprised of numerous independent systems, each of which are displayed on the controller’s screen via dedicated video signals. The monitor allows end users to assign a custom name to each of the monitor’s video signal inputs. This is useful if an input signal is disrupted due to a system or other error, so IT personnel can determine immediately which system was affected.

4K x 2K (3840 x 2160) resolution allows more information to be displayed on screen at a high level of detail for clear viewing.

The monitor can be adjusted within a wide brightness range of 20 – 700 cd/m2 to optimize viewing in the installation environment as well as suit the needs of the ATCOs. The high contrast of 4000:1 ensures even subtle hue differences are displayed with clarity.

The Raptor RP5525 monitor is equipped with EIZO’s fully automated brightness stabilization function. This uses a backlight sensor to stabilize the brightness level of the monitor, compensating for fluctuations caused by variations in ambient temperature and the passage of time. This ensures the ATCO views the screen under consistent display conditions throughout the long life of the monitor.

The unobtrusive bezels measure just 24 mm on the sides so ATCOs can focus more on the screen.

The Raptor RP5525monitor has 400 x 200 mm hole spacing for installation to VESA-supported fixtures, such as those in open or closed ATC consoles. The carrying handles on the back of the monitor provide support for handling the monitor during initial installation or system maintenance.

The Raptor RP5525 monitor is equipped with two dual link DVI and two DisplayPort inputs. It also comes equipped with a range of communication interfaces for connection to a network, remote monitor management, or maintenance purposes – RS-232C, USB, and TCP/IP. All connectors are positioned facing downward to avoid cable bending and ensure connections are reliably secured to the monitor.

The Raptor RP4325 is developed specifically for meeting the stringent requirements of mission-critical ATC environments with 24/7 operation.

The Raptor RP5525 monitor provides noiseless, fanless operation while still maintaining low heat output for reliability.

The Raptor RP5525 monitor’s housing uses full sheet steel industrial-grade housing for durability in demanding environments.

The Raptor RP5525 has its power supply built in. This provides a cleaner and more manageable installation area without a bulky power brick. A secondary built-in power supply is available as an option.
