The Eaton NetDirector 32-Port Cat5e KVM over IP switch is the ultimate solution for centralized, BIOS-level control of up to 32 computers and servers—from anywhere in the world. Designed for data centers, server rooms, and remote offices, this high-performance KVM switch gives you secure, latched access to blade servers and traditional servers through a single console: a monitor, USB keyboard, and USB mouse. With built-in Virtual Media, HDMI output for local display, and flexible remote-user support, you can deploy, manage, and troubleshoot operating systems from a distance with minimal downtime and maximum precision. This switch is engineered to streamline IT operations, accelerate server maintenance, and reduce on-site visits, all while meeting the rigors of modern data centers with a compact 1U rack-mount form factor and TAA-compliant compliance.

  • BIOS-level access to up to 32 hosts: Gain direct, BIOS/POST-level control over a broad range of servers and blade enclosures. Perform initial boot diagnostics, configure firmware, and resolve low-level issues without stepping foot on the floor—ideal for remote data centers and distributed IT environments.
  • Virtual Media for remote OS deployment: Mount ISO files, drivers, and installation media remotely to any connected server. This feature enables operating system installations, firmware updates, and disaster recovery tasks without local media access, dramatically reducing deployment time and travel costs.
  • HDMI output for local console reliability: A dedicated HDMI output ensures a crisp, lag-free local display of the managed systems. Pair it with a USB keyboard and mouse for effortless BIOS navigation, troubleshooting, and maintenance while the devices are accessed over IP.
  • Multi-user remote access: Supports 3 remote users plus 1 local user concurrently, facilitating collaboration among IT staff and allowing separate administrators to monitor, diagnose, and remediate issues in parallel—without stepping on each other’s work.
  • Compact 1U rack-mount design with Cat5e connectivity: Built for dense data centers, the switch occupies a single rack unit and leverages Cat5e cabling for flexible, cost-effective network deployment. Its rugged, enterprise-grade construction is designed to endure 24/7 operation and demanding workloads.

How to install Eaton 32-Port Cat5e KVM over IP Switch – Quick Start Guide

  • Plan your rack layout and determine the optimal location for the 1U switch to minimize cable runs and ensure good airflow.
  • Mount the KVM over IP switch securely in a standard 19-inch rack using the included rails or hardware, ensuring alignment with your other equipment for easy access.
  • Connect the managed servers to the 32 KVM ports using high-quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables. Route cables neatly to avoid blocking airflow or creating trip hazards.
  • Connect the HDMI output from the switch to a local monitor that will serve as the console. Plug in a USB keyboard and USB mouse to the designated console ports or USB hub on the switch if applicable.
  • Attach the switch to your management network: connect an Ethernet cable from the switch’s management port to your data center LAN or management network, ensuring proper IP addressing and network access controls.
  • Power up the switch and all connected hosts. Access the management interface through the switch’s IP address using a web browser from a connected admin workstation.
  • Configure administrative credentials, IP address (static or DHCP as supported), and user roles. Enable BIOS-level access, Virtual Media, and remote session policies as needed.
  • Test remote access with one or more hosts: launch a remote session, verify keyboard/mouse input, confirm HDMI display output, and use Virtual Media to mount an installer or diagnostic image.
  • Set up security and access controls: enable user authentication, assign permissions for remote and local users, and implement session timeouts or IP restrictions to protect critical assets.
  • Document the configuration and keep a maintenance plan. Schedule periodic firmware updates, monitor performance, and rehearse failover or recovery scenarios to minimize downtime.

Strong, Spacious, and Perfect for Every Meal
Style: 34 Ounces, Size: 34 Count
I’ve been using the Dixie Ultra Extra Large Paper Bowls for a while now, and they really stand out. With a 34 oz capacity, these bowls are big enough to hold hearty meals like soups, stews, and even large salads without worrying about spills. They’re perfect for heavy meals or when you just want a generous portion. What I appreciate most is that they’re compostable, which makes me feel better about using disposable products without harming the environment. Plus, they’re microwave safe, so reheating leftovers is super easy and convenient. The bowls are sturdy and don’t get soggy or flimsy, even with hot or liquid foods, which is a huge plus. Whether you’re having a casual lunch, a family gathering, or need something reliable for everyday use, these bowls deliver both quality and convenience. They handle big meals with ease and clean-up is a breeze. Definitely a smart choice for anyone who wants disposable bowls that actually hold up!

These bowls are a staple in both my home and now adding them to Airbnb property. They’re sturdy enough to handle soups, cereals and even heavier meals without getting soggy or collapsing too fast. I love that they’re microwave safe and compostable makes cleanup easy and eco-friendlier. The 20 oz size is generous and the pack of 6 lasts a good while for sure especially when you’re hosting guests or just want a no-fuss option for meals (or for the teenage boys and their friends coming for a quick bite). You'll appreciate the convenience, and I appreciate not having to worry about dishes piling up all the time. Design and color has some fun to it over the typical white basic kind. Definitely a good value and also doesn't have that weird scent or doesn't leave that weird taste to it. If you’re looking for durable, disposable bowls that don’t feel flimsy, these are a solid pick.
