JetKVM

JetKVM provides an open‑source KVM‑over‑IP appliance that streams 1080p video at 60 FPS with 30‑60 ms latency via WebRTC, enabling real‑time remote console access for servers and workstations. The system runs a minimal Linux stack with a Go backend and a React dashboard, and optional JetKVM Cloud services supply public STUN/TURN servers for automatic NAT traversal. An RJ12 extension port allows modular hardware add‑ons and full firmware customization under permissive licenses.

Problem

Enterprises and power users often rely on legacy KVM-over-IP solutions that suffer from high latency, low video quality, and complex NAT traversal, making remote console access sluggish and unreliable. These limitations hinder rapid troubleshooting, real‑time monitoring, and efficient management of servers or workstations across data centers and remote labs.

Solution

JetKVM delivers an open‑source, ultra‑low‑latency KVM‑over‑IP platform that streams full‑HD 1080p video at 60 FPS with 30‑60 ms round‑trip latency over WebRTC. A purpose‑built hardware appliance runs a minimal Linux stack with BusyBox and a Go‑based backend, while a React dashboard provides responsive mouse and keyboard control. Optional JetKVM Cloud services expose public STUN/TURN servers for seamless NAT traversal, enabling secure direct connections without manual port forwarding. The system is fully hackable via an RJ12 extension port, allowing developers to add custom I/O modules or integrate third‑party hardware. All components—including firmware, cloud API, and documentation—are released under permissive open‑source licenses, facilitating in‑house customization and rapid feature iteration.

Target Audience

The primary customers are data‑center operators, IT administrators, and developers who require high‑performance remote console access for servers, workstations, or embedded systems.
