Newer IP KVMs can do media redirection, but you’ll definitely pay for it, at least in larger switches. I’ve never used this product but I’ve heard good things and it does support virtual media: http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/kvm-over-ip/securelinx-spider.html

You’d need some sort of remote access host card in each system. vPro is the simplest way to do what you want, if the machines support it.

If your systems are vPro capable, why not use vPro (you don’t have to integrate it with ConfigMgr if you are simply using it for off tasks).

Harder with real hardware. I’d like two connect 1-4 of those so that I get control them remotely. Bios access, media redirection, best would be USB support, for WinPE booting Anyone can recommend an KVM over IP device suitable for clients or is even using them? I say for clients as I’m less worried about security. -R
