GL.iNet Comet (GL-RM1) is a remote KVM switch for full control of a PC or server from anywhere – it displays the screen, transfers keyboard and mouse control, and makes remote administration easier without physical presence. It offers 4K video at 30 FPS, H.264 hardware encoding, low latency of 30–60 ms and gigabit Ethernet, making it suitable for IT operations, server management and remote work.
Compact hub with practical ports
The KVM switch in a small body offers clearly accessible connectors including USB 2.0, HDMI IN, USB‑C and Ethernet (RJ45) for quick integration into your infrastructure.
Minimalist design for installation by a PC or server
A durable, low-profile chassis with simple controls can easily be placed next to a workstation, mini PC or server. Discreet status indicators and a front button make basic operation easier.
Fast connection of the video source and peripherals
The rear panel provides clearly labeled ports – USB 2.0 Type‑A, HDMI IN and USB‑C – for convenient connection of peripherals and bringing the video signal into the remote KVM.
GL.iNet Comet (GL-RM1) is a practical solution for IT administrators, MSPs, companies and home users who need reliable remote access to a computer, Raspberry Pi or server. Connect it between the video source (HDMI IN) and the network, and then you can work with the system remotely via a browser – including situations where fast diagnostics, configuration or real-time intervention is needed.
The device supports video streaming up to 4K/30 FPS with H.264 hardware encoding and very responsive performance (30–60 ms). It also includes remote audio including two-way transmission, which simplifies communication and troubleshooting.
Advantages and features:
- Access without a public IP and without the need for port forwarding
- Keyboard and mouse control and switching between devices without additional peripherals
- Relative Mouse Mode for better cursor alignment at high resolutions
- Mouse Jiggle to prevent the computer from sleeping during long tasks
- File transfer and work even with devices that are offline
- Wake on LAN for remotely waking devices
- Option to expand via USB (e.g., power/storage control); support for an ATX Power Control Board or a Fingerbot device for power on/off/restart without physical access
- Self-hosting option for the remote-access server (Linux/Ubuntu) for greater control and security
The compact body (80 × 60 × 17.5 mm) and low weight (85 g) make installation next to a PC, server or network device easy. Power via USB-C (5 V / 2 A) simplifies installation and reduces the number of required accessories.
