GL.iNet Comet commutateur KVM PoE (GL-RM1PE)

The GL.iNet Comet PoE KVM Switch (GL-RM1PE) gives you full BIOS-level remote control of a single computer over the network, powered by PoE or USB-C. Unlike software-based remote desktop tools, it works even when the target PC is off, crashed, or before the OS boots.

Highlights

• HDMI video input up to 1080p @ 60Hz
• USB 2.0 Type-B for keyboard/mouse emulation
• Gigabit Ethernet with PoE (802.3af/at) or USB-C power
• Web UI and VNC remote access
• Virtual media support for remote OS installation
• OpenWrt-based firmware for flexibility and security

In daily use

Connect the Comet to a server, workstation, or headless PC via HDMI and USB. Access it from anywhere using a web browser or VNC client. The built-in virtual media feature lets you mount ISO images remotely, making OS deployment and recovery straightforward. With PoE support, a single Ethernet cable provides both data and power, simplifying installation in racks or remote locations.
