That's all I use at my employer - started installing them in 2007 and it is the standard. Expensive, but worth the price. We've never had an issue with them. Connecting HP Windows and Linux servers, along with the random vendor linux appliance. <div>

Looking to replace our old KVM boxes in our server room, .. it appears<br>
that the Avocent DSR2161 is fairly reasonable on eBay (though cables<br>
[adapters] are about 5x the cost of the boxes <g>!).<br>
<br>
Any issues to be aware of? The primary use would be text-based console<br>
access local and remotely over IP, though a few machines run GUIs.<br>
<br>
TIA,<br>
