What is Remote KVM?

A 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.

Your Devices. Your Rules.
No Software. No Subscriptions. No Lag.

Comet is a hardware-based Remote KVM solution, offering secure, real-time access to your devices—even if the OS crashes. It allows users to remotely control a computer over the internet. Unlike other software-based solutions like TeamViewer, it does not require software installation on your target devices , ensures low-latency control, and eliminates costly recurring subscriptions.

Integration with PCs, Raspberry Pis, Servers, and More

Comet works seamlessly with mini PCs, desktop computers, laptops, servers, industrial PCs, and TV boxes, making it a versatile solution for both personal and professional setups.

Works Even if the OS Crashes or Device Offline

Traditional remote desktop software usually require the target computer's operating system to be running. Comet functions at the hardware level, meaning you can access and fix a machine even if the OS crashes or the device is unresponsive.

No Subscription Fee Needed

Traditional remote desktop software requires software to be installed on both ends. Comet is a hardware-based KVM solution, meaning you can access a machine without installing any software on the target devices and no need to pay for subscription fee.

Secure Remote Access for Offline Devices

Many devices cannot connect to the internet due to security policies, network restrictions, or user preferences—but with Comet, you can still remotely access and control these devices without exposing them online.

Unlock the Power of Open-Source KVM Solution

As an open-source KVM solution, Comet provides a cost-effective, highly customizable, and transparent virtualization platform, enabling users to tailor solutions to their specific requirements while benefiting from extensive hardware compatibility and access to a global developer network for continuous innovation and support.

Precision-Crafted for Performance

Powered by a Quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 processor, Comet delivers reliable performance with Gigabit Ethernet for fast network speeds and USB 2.0 for external extensions. It supports 2K@60FPS HDMI output for smooth and clear video, an HDMI-IN for video input, and a USB-Device port for seamless mouse connectivity. With a Type-C power supply and efficient heat dissipation, Comet is the perfect all-in-one solution for remote device management, offering both style and powerful functionality in a compact design.

Portable Hardware Design

Control Your Devices Anytime, Even After Reboot

Unlike software-based tools, Comet maintains a persistent connection even when the target device is rebooted, allowing users to access BIOS settings, troubleshoot boot failures, and manage critical system functions. With physical-level control, Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, and versatile port options, Comet ensures secure, reliable, and real-time remote device management—no matter where you are.

Advanced Remote Power Management in Extreme Conditions

Restart Devices Remotely, and Effortlessly

Comet enables remote power management by connecting to extension devices such as ATX boards and finger robots, allowing users to power on/off, or restart any device—even those without internet connectivity—from anywhere. By eliminating the need for physical access, Comet reduces downtime, ensures seamless operation, and enhances efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

The Story Behind Comet's Design

Our engineer faced repeated remote access failures during a business trip, relying on VPN and remote desktop software that required on-site assistance due to power outages and configuration errors. Determined to solve this, they created Comet (GL-RM1), a cost-effective and user-friendly remote KVM solution. Comet works without public IPs, recovers from disasters like power outages, and operates seamlessly in unattended environments. Designed to overcome the limitations of traditional tools, Comet empowers users with reliable remote access and control, making it an ideal solution for professionals and businesses alike.

Remote Work & Office Needs

It's like Teamviewer but it does no subscription model. I know Teamviewer has a pre-verion but there's limited feature(s) there. This has full features here at an one time upfront cost.

@Bitwit
The RTX 5090 loses to a ROUTER!

You can use KVM for server applications...You can see the stuff that's happening there that's actually what's happening in real time on the primary laptop here...it's pretty low latency too.

What Beta Testers are Saying

I'm really inspired with the creativity GL Technologies has which think about the real needs and requirements of the users and help in achieving it. I hope GL Technologies have great success. Thanks for this wonderful piece of tech.

@ahhydri

The Comet is definitely the most powerful and affordable KVM solution. The ATX add-on power card, provided cables, and Gl-iNet GoodCloud compatibility makes remote connections simple and easy to setup.

@_DaNobody

This is a fantastic little device for hot-swapping between my Mac Mini, Debian servers, and a few Raspberry Pis. My wife loves it too—no more setting up monitors in the hallway just to check on the machines!

@WickedYoda

What truly impressed me was its flawless remote performance—even 7,500 miles from home, I experienced near zero noticeable lag. Everything just worked seamlessly, eliminating the need to sit next to my headless Raspberry Pi 5 or Windows server in the basement. A game-changer for remote management...
