Description Waveshare Luckfox PicoKVM Expansion Board For Remote Power Management is an expansion board designed to work with Luckfox PicoKVM for remote power control and front-panel signal management. It helps connect the PicoKVM system to a target computer motherboard, making it possible to manage functions such as power on, power off, restart, force shutdown, and power status retrieval through remote control workflows. This board integrates practical interfaces such as a USB-C port, USB-A port, IO control connector, PCIe power interface, front panel headers, and a power source selection switch. It is intended for users building remote KVM over IP control systems, especially where internal motherboard front-panel and USB connections need to be routed cleanly inside a chassis. Features Works with Luckfox PicoKVM for remote power management. Supports remote power on, power off, restart, and force shutdown when used with the PicoKVM system. USB-C port adapted from motherboard USB header USB_P1. USB-A port adapted from motherboard USB header USB_P2. IO control ribbon connector for motherboard control signal routing. Supports PCIe or USB power supply selectable by onboard switch. PCIe interface supports 12V power input. Dual front panel header design allows simultaneous motherboard and chassis front-panel connection. Compact internal installation with included full-height metal bracket. Suitable for remote management, lab systems, server-style setups, and internal KVM control builds.
