CHAPTER 2: OVERVIEW

For larger configurations, a central manager is needed—Boxilla. Boxilla operates as a central manager for a “managed domain.” A 
managed domain is a collection of Emerald Receivers and Transmitters managed by a Boxilla. Once a Receiver or Transmitter has 
been added to a managed domain, it can only communicate with other Receivers or Transmitters within this managed domain.

Transmitters

Receivers

Virtual Desktops

FIGURE 2-2. EMERALD EXAMPLE—INCLUDING PHYSICAL AND VIRTUAL DESKTOPS MANAGED BY BOXILLA

Connect your post-production installations located across the globe with Emerald transmitters and receivers. Connection 
distances are unlimited.
