Unless you have a direct fiber link between the two sites, the latency and large bandwidth requirement will make it unusable. Remember that unlike Remote Desktop protocols where advanced ones merely send draw commands, an IP KVM has no understanding of what’s being displayed and must send the entire image as a video stream.
