NEP developed Australia’s first 4K-HD capable OB supertrucks. Two 28-camera, 34-seat vehicles are already in operation, with two further identical trucks nearing completion.

"A centralized KVM system is essential to this design," said Milan Milenkovic, Project Director for NEP Australia. IHSE’s Draco tera KVM switch is connected to a vast range of onboard equipment via control interfaces, allowing operators to connect all computers and devices throughout the truck to their individual workstation using simple keyboard commands. "The IHSE Draco switch is unsurpassed in quality and performance and makes this all possible," Milenkovic said.
