The NTI SERIMUX-CS-32 is a 32-port console serial port switch, which gives IT managers the ability to cost
effectively manage serial devices, including servers, switches, routers, and
telecom gear. The switch can be controlled via an ASCII terminal with
menu-driven integrated software, the front panel keypad, or optional Ethernet
interface.
SERIMUX-CS-32 Features
Eliminates the need to connect each device to an ASCII terminal or PC.
Connect up to 32 devices with different baud rates, parity, and
character length. Each switch also has one RJ45 connector for a local
terminal.
Provides out-of-band access to network devices (servers, routers,
network switches, and any other network devices allowing console operation
using RS232).
Power cycle without halting SUN host computer.
-No inadvertent "break" signals are generated to cause
unintentional rebooting of SUN computers.
Dual power option creates a redundant power system protecting the
console switch from any power failure issues.
High quality, rugged steel construction with durable powder coat finish.
Connects to console serial ports using standard CAT5/5e/6 cables and cable
adapters.
-Maximum cable length is 100 feet.
Two operator levels (administrator and user).
Switching is simplified with programmable device names and menu-driven
device selection.
-All configuration parameters are stored in non-volatile
EEPROM.
Built-in data buffers save the most recent RS232 console output from
each connected device, which simplifies troubleshooting failures.
Local commands can be directed via VT52, VT100, ANSI serial console, a
PC with a terminal emulation program, or any compliant terminal.
Gain access to servers without interrupting service to end-users;
maintain optimal up-time.
Manage server farms or data centers via serial ports and standard
external modems or through optional Ethernet interface using Telnet or Web
interface.
1RU rackmount case is standard.
