Do UTP-based KVM dongles offer servers “stay alive” or “keep-alive” functionality?
Yes.A KVM dongle is an active device that pulls power and provides keyboard and mouse emulation.Once the dongle connection is made and the server is started from a cold boot, the dongle is not required to have a UTP cable connected back to the Cat5 KVM switch.A UTP based KVM switch does not need to remain connected to the target systems in order for the computers to operate correctly.
