Medical
Getting an MRI, CT scan, or X-Ray can be stressful enough for a patient without having to hear a group of medical experts discussing the results.
To ensure safety, security, privacy, and policy compliance, most clinical settings keep the host computer separate from the medical equipment, which is located in a different patient care area.
USB Extensions for Medical Applications
Icron’s USB and KVM (USB + Video) extension systems are ideal for bridging the gap between the host computer and medical imaging or diagnostic equipment in these separate areas.
Why Use Icron for Medical Applications?
It’s common practice in hospitals, physician offices, laboratories, and diagnostic centers to keep patients separated from computers and display screens.
When the distance between rooms exceeds 5 meters, Icron’s ExtremeUSB or USB + Video extenders can reliably bridge the gap. For situations requiring electrical isolation, Icron also provides USB extenders that use fiber instead of copper cables.
These environments can also be filled with electrical devices that can also affect the quality of electrical signals when simply passed through copper lines, converting these extensions over to fiber can overcome these issues, ensuring accurate data with no packet loss over greater distances.
