KVM

KVM-over-LAN

Keyboard-video-mouse switches (KVM), connect several computers so that a user can manipulate all of them using just one keyboard, one mouse and one monitor.

As handy as they are, these switches always forced end user to work in a close distances to the servers because of the mouse or keyboard cable length.

Supermicro embedded IPMI support KVM-over-Lan. Authorized users can manage all networked systems with it, no matter how far away.
