FlexKVM¶
Plug-and-play hardware-level out-of-band management. Connect it to your target host's HDMI and USB ports, and you can view the screen, control keyboard and mouse, manage power, and mount ISOs — all from your browser or via Tailscale. Even if the target OS is crashed, has no graphics driver, or isn't even installed yet.
No software to install on the target host. No public IP needed. As long as there's a network path, the server room is at your fingertips.
What It Solves¶
| Pain Point | FlexKVM's Solution |
|---|---|
| Server crashed, SSH/RDP down — have to haul a monitor to the server room | Hardware-level HDMI capture — see the screen remotely even when the OS is crashed |
| Headless device BIOS needs tweaking — always need to connect a monitor | Remote keyboard & mouse control all the way to BIOS/UEFI — operate as if you're sitting right there |
| Remote site system failure — sending someone on-site is expensive and slow | Built-in Tailscale mesh VPN — headquarters can remotely reinstall the OS |
| No network on-site — can't remotely access the device | Ethernet Direct (DHCP server) + WiFi 6 hotspot dual-channel — connect via phone or laptop, no router needed |
Who Uses FlexKVM¶
-
Enterprise IT / Data Centers
Server crashed? View blue screens, enter BIOS, remotely reinstall the OS from your office — no more emergency trips to the server room.
-
Homelab & Enthusiasts
NAS, soft router, all-in-one without a monitor? No more hauling a TV over for boot issues. Remotely adjust boot order and reinstall any time.
-
Edge Computing & IoT
Base station, unmanned server room, remote site failure — maintain from HQ via Tailscale. Downtime compressed from hours to minutes.
-
Embedded & Industrial Automation
Industrial PC, PLC locked in a cabinet — FlexKVM captures HDMI + UART serial dual-channel debugging. Quickly pinpoint production line faults.
Key Features¶
-
Remote Desktop Control
Pure hardware HDMI capture, up to 1920x1200@60Hz. No dependency on OS, graphics drivers, or remote services — BIOS, blue screens, safe mode are all visible.
-
Bidirectional Audio
Emulates a USB audio device. Target host's system audio streams back to your browser; your microphone outputs to the target host.
-
Remote Power Control
ATX control interface for remote power management — normal shutdown, force restart, force power-off.
-
Virtual Optical Drive
Use TF card as a virtual CD-ROM — supports bidirectional file transfer, remote OS installation, and more.
-
Mesh VPN (Tailscale)
Built-in Tailscale client. No public IP, no port forwarding — end-to-end encrypted virtual network out of the box.
-
Dual-Network Redundancy
Dual-band WiFi 6 + 100M Ethernet. Both links online simultaneously — if either fails, control is unaffected.
-
Network-Free Control
No router? No problem. Ethernet Direct Mode (DHCP server) + WiFi 6 hotspot — two channels, zero infrastructure. OS installs, BIOS tweaks, troubleshooting — all without a network.
-
Low Power, Silent
Typical 1.5W–2.4W consumption. Fanless, 24/7 quiet operation.
-
Serial & GPIO Expansion
UART serial communication and GPIO control for embedded debugging, industrial automation, and watchdog applications.
-
Multi-Scene Deployment
Magnetic backplate / 35mm DIN rail clip / custom backplate — multiple mounting options for desktop, rack, and industrial environments.
-
Aluminum Passive Cooling
Aluminum alloy chassis passive cooling — fanless, zero noise, no dust buildup, suitable for high-temperature environments.
-
Ultra Compact
Just 65 × 46 × 22 mm, ~100g — take it anywhere.
