re: Recommend KVM Switch for Remote Console Access

When idrac not working, either I pay 200 Euros an hour for someone to roll a crash cart to a server, and talk back and forth through a language barrier, sending me pics, etc etc etc, or I have a KVM and fix my own problem in 3 minutes.
All the servers are already on oob ilo/idrac/etc but need KVM.

Not trying to be an arse, but wouldn't you have to do the same for the KVM too? Why not just keep the server under warranty and let the vendor swap out the OOBM card if it goes out?
I can say, and we may just be lucky, over the past 10 years we have never had an iDRAC failure. We are all Dell so I can not comment on the other vendors OOBM offerings or reliability.
I did find these.

Looks like they have a single server version too.
They did show one on Amazon when I googled for pricing at seven hundred something.
I Have no experience with them.
