Raritan Dominion KX III DKX3G2-232 Review

Raritan Dominion KX III DKX3G2-232 32-port 2-user KVM-over-IP switch, high-density multi-admin enterprise remote KVM, DVI HDMI DisplayPort VGA, virtual media

Pairs the -132's 32-port density with two-admin concurrency, letting a mid-size data center run a full dense rack with room for a second engineer to jump in without displacing the first.

Density Plus Concurrency

This model exists for teams that outgrew both the port count and the single-user limit at the same time, a common pattern as a colo cage grows from a handful of racks to a full row.

Upgrade Path

Because it shares the CIM ecosystem with every other Dominion KX III G2 model, moving from a -132 to a -232 (or vice versa) doesn't require re-cabling the whole rack.

Comparison to Alternatives

Need four concurrent admins at this density? The DKX3G2-432 is the direct step up. If 32 ports is more than needed, the DKX3G2-216 covers half the servers for less. For non-IP local switching at 32-port scale, there is no comparable SmartAVI or IOGEAR product in this catalog, Raritan's KX III line is the practical choice above 8-16 ports.
