CONSOLER CABLE CONFIGURATION ON SWITCH

Description

Description

„ 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.
„ Command Line Interface via Telnet for advanced management
functions.
„ Connects to console serial ports using standard CAT5/5e/6 cables and
cable adapters.
• Maximum cable length is 100 feet (30 meters).
„ Two operator levels (administrator and user).
„ Switching is simplified with programmable device names and menudriven 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.
