Great find. It looks just like the units I have used in the past they had to be wired directly to a 1U box.

Thanks,

Most IP KVM's require at least 1U of space for the KVM server. So, if you are looking for colo for this server, I would suggest an IPMI (If using a supermicro)

        That would be a KVM over IP.  They are still kind of pricey
        but Supermicro
        has a card that works with some of their boards that is
        inexpensive but a
        separate KVM over IP is a better solution if you can afford it
        IMHO.

        When I mean "remote console" I mean exactly that. from a web
        browser I can
        see the machine go through the bios startup (and go to the
        bios if I need),
        press F1 is some bastard has left a unbootable floppy in the
        drive, IOW do
        anything I would normally do if I was sitting at the machine
        itself.

        This means I can lock the server away in a rack and not need a
        keyboard or
        screen attached to reboot / change bios / change boot order etc

        In fact the drac also has a nifty utility where you can
        remotely attach
        devices (for example, my floppy cd) and the server thinks that
        they are
        attached to the server, even when the server is rebooting.
