Rack Interface Pods (200) can be augmented with non-KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) functionality that can enable greater analysis of the state of the computer to which the RIP (200) is attached. A RIP (200) can be augmented to include a non-KVM input connection (e.g., an Intelligent Platform/Chassis control protocol input) that is used to communicate between the server (120) and the RIP (200). The RIP (200) can then multiplex the received information with the KVM signals for transmission to a PEM or to an ARI port (240). Video and computer environment-style data can be multiplexed across a communications medium exiting the RIP (200) such that they can be received by a remote computer (190). |
