Are there any generic KVM over IP cards/chips for motherboards without any such capability

ipmiremote

I have a remote server that doesn't have any IP KVM capabilities, meaning I can't remotely power cycle it or access the BIOS. I saw that ASUS offers something for their motherboards here:

But is there anything like this available for other motherboards? Even something that I could stash away somewhere in a hard drive bay that simply plugs into the board would be great.

You'll need to check with your specific motherboard vendor to see what's available. There won't be anything generic that works with everything unless it was going to be able to physically push the power button on the server.
