KVM LCD Drawer

Anyone using one of these units (KVM LCD) on XServes? We have two in our production environment. Any suggestions would be nice.
Thanks in advance!

We have an HP it works fine.

Thanks! Their pricing is a bit high compared to Belkin and StarTech.
Plus you still need to buy an actual KVM switch.
Since we only need it for two, any cheap 100 dollar option will suffice.

There are no cheap options for Rackmount Monitor especially with
an integrated KVM Switch. I would recommend checking KVMSwitchTech as
they have some reasonably priced Rackmount Monitor Keyboard products
with or without KVM Switch.

Thanks for the tip. I have vendors pricing it around 1k but HP tends to be double that.
I also got a tip on the APC brand.

I would recommend checking KVMSwitchTech. They offer a wide range of Rackmount Monitor Keyboard solutions with and without KVM Switch units that are compatible with MACs, Suns and PCs. Their products are competitively priced.

Thanks everyone for the tips.
Our purchasing dept picked up an APC.

We have an Adesso rack-mounted, slide-out keyboard / trackpad and a standard 15" LCD display in our rack.

Not to threadjack, but I'm in the market for a 8-port or 16-port Cat-5 KVM switch. Speaking of KVMSwitchTech.com, they carry this model. Anyone have experience with this one or similar?

KVM LCD Drawer- Query

The link mentioned above is a 16 Port Cat5 KVM Switch from Cyberview. They
have been around for a while. I have an IT buddy who has used their Cat5 KVM units in the past and they work well.
