KVM over IP motherboard ALLNET GL-KVM-ATX for ATX systems

ALLNET GL-KVM-ATX is a KVM over IP motherboard for ATX systems that enables remote keyboard, video and mouse access to a host machine. Designed for network-based console management, this board allows administrators to perform system maintenance, remote troubleshooting and headless operation without physical presence. The module integrates into standard ATX builds to offer persistent remote control over a connected server or workstation via IP.

Advantages

The GL-KVM-ATX provides secure remote access and continuous console availability through network connectivity, reducing the need for on-site visits. It supports comprehensive keyboard and mouse control as well as video capture for full remote interaction with the host system. Integration into ATX form-factor systems ensures compatibility with common server and workstation hardware while conserving rack and chassis space. Remote management capabilities streamline routine administration and emergency recovery operations.

Suitable for

• Data centers requiring remote console access for servers
• Remote offices and branch locations without local IT staff
• System administration tasks such as firmware updates, troubleshooting and diagnostics
• Headless systems that need out-of-band management
• Maintenance and emergency recovery where physical access is limited

Key specifications

• Form factor: ATX-compatible motherboard module for integration into ATX systems
• Remote access: Keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) over IP for full console control
• Network interface: Standard Ethernet connectivity for remote management
• Video capture: Remote video streaming for local display emulation and diagnostics
• Control features: Remote keyboard and mouse input with synchronized local/remote control
• Power and environment: Designed to operate within typical ATX system power and thermal envelopes

How to use

Install the GL-KVM-ATX into an ATX chassis following standard motherboard integration procedures and connect the board to the host system according to the vendor's installation instructions. Attach the network connection to the management network and configure IP settings via the board's interface or DHCP as supported. Use the provided web or client-based management tools to authenticate, start a remote console session and access keyboard, video and mouse functions for diagnostics, software updates or configuration changes. Ensure firmware and management software are kept up to date to maintain compatibility and security.

Usage recommendations

Place the GL-KVM-ATX on a secured management network or VLAN with restricted access, enable strong authentication and encryption for remote sessions, and keep firmware current. Use it in environments where remote console access reduces physical intervention and improves response times for system recovery and maintenance.
