Default KVM Recommendations - options

Hi folks there are a list somewhere of KVM systems to integrate with the S6?
I get a quote from IHSE today that is a little bit to expansive to my possibilities today and I`m trying to investigate it a little bit more.
I understand that IHSE are working really close to avid to do a really amazing integration, but maybe there are other options around.

thanks for any tip.

Jeff. Thanks.
Do you have diagrams?
Models?
It a whole new world and maybe you already have a map of which pieces are necessary. My setup is very basic: 2 Pro Tools, 2 hdmi displays and one M10.

I would start with page 171 of the S6 Operation doc:

Ricardo,
These are very nice KVM's:

Not sure how they work with an S6.
Might want to check them out. They are about 50% less pricey than the IHSE.

They don't, sorry.

I would contact an IHSE distributor and get a quote.

I already did it. They are away too expansive, but the integration seems incredible.

So this is something i did not understand: the level of integration described in the manual applies to the other branda of kvm lusted above?

IHSE are ethernet control based (as are the Thinklogical ones supported in the next release) The others are just serial so not the same level of integration.
