A black screen between two ATC computers is not a glitch. It's a near-miss you don't want on your shift log.
The ATEN CS1942ATC exists so that never happens. It gives an air traffic controller instant, zero-black-screen access to two USB 3.0 / DisplayPort dual-display ATC workstations — radar on one side, flight information on the other — with a single hand on a pushbutton, a hotkey, or an RS-232 command.
Dual DisplayPort 1.2 outputs drive up to 4K @ 60 Hz per port and a combined 2K×2K canvas, so the controller sees the full picture without squinting at a single panel. ATEN's Video DynaSync™ and EDID expert™ handle the handshake in the background; you just get a clean, sharp image every time.
Two lockable DC jacks mean one power feed can drop and the switch keeps running. No restart. No lost session. No 2am call to the vendor.
Port switching: pushbuttons, hotkeys, mouse, RS-232, or the optional remote port selector (sold separately). Pick whatever fits the console layout.
In the box: CS1942ATC unit, four DisplayPort 1.2 cables (1.5 m), two USB 3.0 Type-A to Type-B cables (1.8 m), two microphone cables, two speaker cables, two power adapters with cords, and the user guide.
Built for ATC towers, approach control rooms, and area control centres. If your operation can't afford a dropped frame, this is the switch that keeps the picture alive
