You really don't know how much it costs, do you?

Check https://tinypilotkvm.com/collections/all-products these are the cheapest ones.

I think a raspberry pi setup would be the cheapest? Not as professional perhaps.

MSRP for remote-capable KVMs is irrelevant.

You (the person paying to co-locate hardware) don't buy the KVM that the colo facility uses. The colo facility hooks up the KVM that they own to your hardware and configures it so that you can access it. Once you stop paying to colo your hardware, you take your hardware back (or maybe pay them to dispose of it, I guess) and they keep the KVM, because it's theirs.
