[Q] (Slightly OT) KVM Over CAT5 or Other....

[Dale Shaw]

Hi,

This same question came up in August on the SAGE-AU mailing list.. The
only link that I can find in the thread that ensued was:

http://www.zantech.com.au/

These guys have a bunch of devices that may be of interest. I suspect
none of them could be considered 'cheap', but I haven't really checked
it out.

Cheers,
Dale

G'Day,

Aside from my Linux boxes I have 2 Windoze (one for work and the other
my
wifes). What I want to do however is just have a monitor, keyboard,
mouse on
my desk and my wife's and locate the physical boxes about 20-30m (CAT5
cable
run) away in another room. (This will help cut down the noise of running
2
boxes 24/7) I know such products exist and was wondering if anyone had
any
suggestions or recommendations. Now if I could squeeze a USB hub on as
well
then the possibilities are endless. ;-)

Any pointers, suggestions greatly appreciated.
