KVMs are unreasonably expensive and my work was about to throw this one in the dumpster. I just need to order some console cables first but I’m really pleased.

      If I had to guess it got damaged when transported in a box with hundreds of pounds of old servers stacked on top of it. Some of the other KVMs I saw were in pieces.

      KVM trays are generally only used for terminal/CLI access where widescreen doesn’t make much sense.

      Widescreen ones are available (though not as plentiful) when the user is regularly using GUIs on it.
