The KVM just uses a devboard that's also sold separately and just happens to have a microphone, given how cheap the mics are having one extra SKU would probably just cost them more than savings.

Also I wouldn't really consider it "server room" product. Pretty much any new server has KVM, this is more "a hobbyist needing KVM for their home server"





I can't recall seeing any server that includes KVM-over-IP, but instead they have some shitty remote access controller (e.g. Dell iDRAC) that is buggy as hell and requires a subscription to even get working.

Supermicro boards have it via the IPMI Ethernet port. Doesn't require any sign up.

That sounds good - I thought they required a license key to get working.

(However, IMPI is a security nightmare with backdoors, default passwords and weak encryption)


Intel AMT? Whatever AMD calls theirs?
