FWIW I'm using a Raritan system here and I need converters for all of my =
Sun boxes. Besides the extra expense of the converters, I have monitor res =
issues as we use flat panels here. Otherwise, the Raritan solution is =
idea. KVM over RJ45, a dark datacenter.. all my routers and servers on my =
desk. It's a beautiful thing.  (plus you pick up rack space since you have =
no monitors in/on them &  less HVAC issues since less heat...)=20

HTH,

Joe
