Comet (GL-RM1) Released by GL.iNet for Futuristic Control of Remote System
GL.iNet unveil the new Comet (GL-RM1), which will deal with remote management of all computer hardware and servers. The target customers for the device are IT infrastructure and support specialists. The device operates at the BIOS level, so it allows the administrator to make power-on and reset operations, and even OS installations on remote machines without any physical presence.
Core Features & Capabilities
The Comet is a R-KVM (Remote KVM) device which is one step ahead of ordinary remote access.
- BIOS-Level Access: A key feature differentiating the Comet from typical remote access software is that it provides BIOS-level control before booting any operating system.
- Hardware Expandability: The USB port allows connection to external modules such as power management units, ATX cards, or Fingerbot automation robots for complete control over the managed system.
- High-End Video Stream: With a latency of less than 60 milliseconds, the 4K video stream at 30 frames per second ensures that there are virtually no delays in operating in real-time.
- Tools for Remote Access: With file transfer, resource sharing, and audio support, it is a fully equipped tool for remote maintenance.
- Reliable Connections: Relies on a Gigabit Ethernet port to provide a stable and reliable network connection.
- No Software Installation Necessary: Must not require any software installations on the target machine.
Comet PoE (GL-RM1PE) Enhancements
These are the modifications under the Comet PoE (GL-RM1PE) listing. The two important enhancements found within this device are:
- Power over Ethernet (PoE): For quick and efficient installation, it provides just one Ethernet cable solution for carrying power and data to the unit, especially in remote areas where power outlets are a luxury.
- Increased Storage: Enhanced with 32 GB of in-built storage.
Pricing and Business Model
An important feature of GL.iNet Comet is the one-time payment pricing model, which relieves the user from the constant worry of subscription fees. This is a major plus for companies that plan to manage huge deployments.
The device is available for sale at a promotional price of $78.54.
