The Thinklogical Advantage in Mission Critical Environments
Having a complete picture of the current situation offers a clear advantage. Therefore, governments and their military have chosen Thinklogical’s products and solutions over other manufacturers for their electronic transmission of video and data. And, here’s why: Thinklogical infrastructures are fiber-based, 6.25 Gbps, single thread, resolution agnostic systems that deliver every pixel and refresh frame from end to end. While other AV infrastructure solutions offer approximately 3 to 4 Gbps, Thinklogical understands that in order to support an uncompressed full resolution and full frame rate digital video interface (DVI) image roughly 5 Gbps of bandwidth is required. In addition, increased bandwidth is required to support associated computer peripherals, such as keyboard, mouse, audio, etc. Therefore, a system solution that does not provide sufficient bandwidth provides not only a soft image with dropped random frames and pixels, but peripheral latencies as well. Within the demanding realm of government and military installations, Thinklogical delivers products that meet the performance, reliability and security standards necessary to fulfill mission-critical visualization applications. Thinklogical systems have Accreditation for Common Criteria EAL-4, NATO (NIAPC) Green Status and TEMPEST approval. Common Criteria is an internationally recognized set of guidelines (ISO 15408), which define a common framework for evaluating security features and capabilities of Information Technology security products. The standard consists of several predetermined evaluation assurance levels, each one more stringent than the last. Common Criteria allows vendors to have their products tested against a chosen level by an independent third-party testing laboratory. Once completed, Common Criteria certifications are mutually accepted by 25 countries through the CCRA (Common Criteria Recognition Agreement), including the United States government. Common Criteria certification of security products is a requirement for purchases made by many governments within the CCRA regime.

Thinklogical’s products have been engineered and designed with government and military applications in mind. Therefore, all Thinklogical systems are fiber-based, using light pulses, not electricity for data transmission. This means that the data cannot be eavesdropped upon, intercepted, or disrupted by electromagnetic noise. Also, fiber is ideal in many different types of environments, it cannot corrode, it can be buried in all kinds of soil forms, and can be exposed to all kinds of atmospheres as well. Since the only carrier in fiber optic cables is light, there is no possibility of spark from a broken cable wire. Thus, fiber optic cables leave no room for fire hazards.
Secure Transmission of Data Between Black and Red Networks Accessing data can become of paramount importance in secure applications. In many instances, end users need to switch between two or more computers, at different classification levels, thus introducing data vulnerability as well as inefficiencies in productivity. In addition, strict security rules for the protection of classified information apply: That is, where networks with different security classifications are connected, it must be absolutely certain that classified information processed solely in trustworthy red networks is never transferred to black networks, where unauthorized personnel would have access to it. For this reason, Thinklogical’s family of fiber optic extension, switching and routing products do not store or buffer any data transmission in its circuitry or components. Thinklogical’s products follow strict User Data Separation policies in which there is no data flow between Transmitter Port Groups or Receiver Port Groups and any other physical port on Thinklogical routers unless an authorized, deliberate and logical connection has been established. Therefore, unauthorized personnel have no chance of retrieving data that has been transmitted, switched and routed on our products. Thinklogical ‘s extension systems are also capable of ensuring that only USB human interface devices (HIDs) function on target computers, by allowing only HID devices to be attached to ports. Therefore, non-HID devices such as flash drives, hard disk drives, cameras and printers will not be capable of introducing security vulnerabilities. These features have enabled our products and solutions to play a critical role in helping military and government departments and agencies overcome the critical infrastructure, collaboration and information sharing issues they face on a daily basis.

Our specialized solutions for advanced visualization applications, namely our Velocity line of video and KVM extenders and our VX Routers, create a deep synergy between military applications and Thinklogical solutions. Therefore, our switching and extension technologies are widely deployed and used within the infrastructure of training, computer simulation, immersive, and VR military environments and applications. Applying the most advanced technology, Thinklogical’s fiber optic systems assist in safeguarding infrastructure and information assets, all while playing a vital technological role in high performance visualization and immersive environments. Thinklogical’s video processing solutions are built on extraordinary technology, differentiated by Thinklogical’s patent-pending MRTS technology (Multi Rate Transmission System), which supplies a core platform for exceptional and enhanced image processing and quality. This technology successfully maintains digital video and peripheral signals over distance (up to 40 kilometers), with the ability to transport every frame of a 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz (or higher) video stream with no compression, along with all desktop peripherals (keyboard, mouse, USB 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, and FireWire 800) with no latency. Thinklogical’s MRTS technology plays a critical role in many applications, especially in the military arena, where real-time collaboration applications are in place and eliminating dropped frames and latency is of paramount importance.
