Hello all,

 

I was thinking of moving my computer to my server rack, but this poses 2 issues, the one big one is remote display and the second is IO. In my walls I have one LC to LC fiber and 2 cat 6 a in my office under my desk. I was considering using this kick starter but I think it died. does anyone know of any similar products or solutions that would work? The kickstarter is exactly what I am looking for but they haven't had an update in 7 months. It seems like a simple concept that i am trying to do and possible from as far as I can see. Any insight into a solution is welcome!

Thanks

 

P.S. I didn't know if this is the right sub-forum, if there is a better one, let me know and I will move it.

Would this work for you? HDMI and USB.

I was thinking more along the lines of something that I would be able to have a hub at the other end for my keyboard mouse headphones and usb drives, usb 1.1 isnt exactly ideal for that. that is why I was thinking about that kick starter.

This was the first result that popped up. If you Google a bit for hdmi fiber extenders, you can find them with usb 3.0 and 4k/60 hdmi.
