Avocent, first and foremost. However, I've been looking at this for a single-port IP KVM, for remote installations: http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/kvm-over-ip/securelinx-spider.html On Wed, Apr 14, 2010 at 12:30, Glen Johnson wrote: > Looking for recommendations for a replacement system

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. -ASB: http://XeeSM.com/AndrewBaker On Wed, Apr 14, 2010 at 3:30 PM, Glen Joh

Dell just rebrands Avocent IIRC. I've used the Dell flagged ones in a bunch of customer sites and they're fine. You can put them on the LAN and have remote access via a Java client. They have various SIP modules too I think for different stuff. Thanks, Brian Desmond br...@briandesmond.com
