Looking for recommendations for a replacement system.
Need USB and PS2 connectivity. One local user and one IP user. Up to
32 servers.
Don't need serial or power control.
I'd prefer cat5/6 cabling from the box to the servers to reduce cable
clutter in the 2 racks.
My biggest concern is good I

remote installations:

Also +1 on Avocent. Although we use the Dell branded versions. I've had zero
problems with them.

Another solid vote for Avocent.
I've had one at home for 9 years now, and the ones that I've deployed at
various organizations have been rock solid.
As for what to avoid, I have successfully avoided Raritan for years.

We have a couple of raritan units at clients. Only real issue we have
had is mouse syncing over IP connections. Played around with the

I'm hoping to get some recommendations on purchasing a KVM switch -
brands that are good or bad, features to look for, etc.
What I have is a room with 10 servers, all Dell PowerEdge from about 6
or 7 years old to new, different models. Some have USB 1.1, some 2.0,
most have PS2 ports

I've bought two IOGear KVM switches so far. The first one was a PS/2 only
and didn't work with my Dell machine since it's USB-only and it didn't work
with the PS2->USB adapter. Then I bought another IOGear, this time a USB
one and it wouldn't pass the unifying receiver from my Wireless Logitech
