Control your home lab server from anywhere! - Tiny Pilot Voyager 2a Review

Ever need out-of-band management for your home server in the home lab environment? How can you enter the BIOS and change settings remotely? Can you even reload your operating system remotely if needed and stay connected to your server or workstation? Michael Lynch of Tiny Pilot sent me a test unit of the Tiny Pilot Voyager 2a to review. I have had it running in the home lab a few weeks now and this video covers my thoughts on the unit.
