The company I'm working for wants me to pick out a 1U rackmound KVM switch.
I'm looking into the kind that look like pull-out laptops.

That is one I'm looking at.

We like them because they use a single, small cable and can use satellite KVMs
to control a lot of machines from a single console. We have no need for high
resolution graphics, the resolution of this unit is fine.

Have any of you guys used this type before?

I'm looking for recommendations and warnings alike as I've not tried any of
these yet.

The current KVM infrastructure cannot support the built-out of new machines
I'm helping them with so this or something very much like it is necessary.
