Remote KVM over Internet

What is Remote KVM?

Remote KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) is a device that lets you control a computer or server from anywhere, as if you were sitting right in front of it. Imagine you're traveling, but you need to access and fix a computer at your office. With a Remote KVM, you can see the screen, use the keyboard, and move the mouse just like you were physically there.

It's commonly used by IT professionals, businesses, and data centers to troubleshoot, manage, and maintain computers remotely without needing to be on-site.
