It does what it supposed to do

Muy útil para administrar servidores

Article commandé pour ne plus avoir à prendre un ensemble écran, clavier et souris. Il trouve sa place dans la sacoche à coté du portable, bien plus pratique et leger en tout cas.

I bought this because I am always going to data centers and hate looking for, or just HOPING there is, a crash cart lying around, or that the client has a KVM in the rack. This easily fits in my laptop bag, and comes with me in the truck or on an airplane. And if you get a 15 foot usb cable with it like I did, you can sit on the hot aisle instead of the cold aisle. You data center monkeys will know what I'm talking about. But it works exactly as advertised. You see everything from POST onwards, on anything from desktops to G9 HP servers. WELL worth the cash. Feels solid built too...hefty...but I still treat it like a baby just because of how expensive it is. Fair warning though...on Windows 8 or newer, they don't have any signed drivers yet, so you have to boot into the recovery mode and turn off driver signing in the OS, then it will load the drivers and work fine. It will continue to work until you reboot. So if you just put your laptop to sleep, it will be fine. Just keep this in mind if you think yours doesn't work on Windows 8/10. Once the drivers are loaded the first time, they never need to be reloaded again, but it won't find the device on USB until you turn off driver signing in the OS. Other than that, this is probably the best tool in my bag.

Needs the driver to make this thing work. But it definitely serves its purpose of enabling the laptop to Be a kvm to be attached to my servers for troubleshooting purposes

works great on macos (even M macs) very reliable, wish it had usb 3 to speed up the iso installs in a pinch and maybe clipboard pass threw. Slightly expensive and niche but works great would recommend!
