Overview

The X652 is a Raspberry Pi CM4-based KVM-over-IP remote management PCI Express card that can be easily inserted into 1U and 2U form factors for PC, Sun and Mac platforms. it adds remote, unblocked, BIOS-level access and control to any server. Accessed from any Web browser, it provides anytime, anywhere KVM access with security, stability and speed.

The IP KVM PCI card offers KVM control from the BIOS-level onward. Reboot, monitor the entire boot process, and interact with your connected system easily, while the integrated remote ATX power control allows you to switch the machine on/off, reset it, and monitor power & storage LED activity remotely.

The X652 also supports powering over Ethernet (PoE) that allows Ethernet cable to transmit data and power simultaneously using a single network cable, minimizing cable usage and eliminating the need for separate power supplies and outlets.

Note:

  1. The X652 Kit does not come with a Raspberry Pi CM4, please prepare the CM4 module yourself.
  2. Don't power the X652 via USB Type-C socket if powering over Ethernet.

* For the first version X652 (V1.0), please exclusively use the provided Tenda POE injector due to compatibility concerns. It is not compatible with other POE switches.

How to Power

The x652 v1.0 supports two types of power supply: PoE power and Type C power.

  • PoE power must use with a Tenda PoE injector, ((As there is compatibility issue with PoE chip used by X652 V1.0))
  • 5.1Vdc +/-5% , ≥3A; Power via USB Type-C PWR port of X652; ( Refer to Geekworm 5V 4A USB-C Power Adapter PSU20 )
  • If you wish to use POE power, you need to purchase an additional Tenda PoE injector
  • About Tenda PoE injector, refer to the following picture:

 

How to Cool

  • X652 equipped with an active cooling fan board (X680-A1) that can cool your Raspberry Pi CM4, and X680-A1 is included in the Packing List;
  • In fact, if you don't like cooling fans, you can try C235, which can fully meet the cooling needs of CM4, but C235 is NOT included in the Packing List;

Why CM4 does not recognize SD card ?

Says "SD: card not detected ?"

What are all the benefits/use cases of the NVMe? I can store more images and boot from NVMe, but can I screen capture to the NVMe from PiKVM? Anything else?
