X651 Dimension

Overview

Introducing the X651, a state-of-the-art Raspberry Pi CM4-based KVM-over-IP remote management PCI Express card that seamlessly integrates into 1U and 2U form factors across PC, Sun, and Mac platforms. This innovative solution provides remote, unblocked, BIOS-level access and control to optimize server management. Accessible from any web browser, the X651 offers secure, stable, and high-speed KVM access anytime, anywhere.

With the IP KVM PCI card, users can exercise KVM control starting from the BIOS level and beyond. Easily reboot, monitor the entire boot process, and interact with your connected system effortlessly. Additionally, the integrated remote ATX power control feature enables convenient machine power management, including switching on/off, resetting, and remote monitoring of power and storage LED activity.

Moreover, the X651 is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, allowing data and power transmission over a single Ethernet cable. This feature streamlines cable usage, eliminates the need for separate power supplies and outlets, and enhances overall convenience and efficiency in network setups.

Technical Specification	Power supply: 5Vdc +/-5% 3A via USB-C 5Vdc +/-5% via POE (IEEE 802.3af) Ports & Connectors: Type-C power socket x1 Type-C OTG socket x1 10/100/1000M RJ45 Ethernet jack x1 ATX control box header 2.54pitch 2x8pin x2 HDMI input resolutions: Max 1920 x 1080P 60Hz Product Size: 122.5mm x 121.5mm x 26mm
Notes	The X651 Kits do not come with a CM4, so you will need to provide your own. This includes any of the CM4 lite variants, as well as the 16GB and 32GB eMMC models. Don't power the X651 via USB Type-C socket if powering over Ethernet.

How to Power

• 5Vdc +/-5% 3A via USB-C (Power Via USB Type-C PWR port of X651 V1.0)
• 5Vdc +/-5% via POE (IEEE 802.3af) (Recommend, but it's expensive because you need a poe switch, the poe switch must support 802.3af.)

How to Cool

• X651 equipped with an active cooling fan board (X-FAN30 V1.0) that can cool your Raspberry Pi CM4， and X-FAN30 V1.0 is included in the Packing List;

• In fact, if you don't like fans, you can try C235, which can fully meet the cooling needs of CM4, but C235 is NOT included in the Packing List;

• 

  X-FAN30 V1.0

• 

  C235

Packing List
