Note:

For the SFP modules that Lantronix resells or supports for operation with our SLC 

console managers, please refer to https://www.lantronix.com/products/sfp/ 

System Features

The SLC 8000 firmware has the following basic capabilities:

Software reversible device port pinouts (serial RJ45 ports only)

Connects up to 48 RS-232 serial consoles or up to 48 USB consoles

Support use of simple straight-through cables for use with Cisco, Sun and other devices that 

use the “Cisco” RJ-45 serial pinouts

10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet network compatibility or SFP ports to support single or multi-

mode 1 Gigabit SFP transceiver modules

Buffer logging to file

Email and SNMP notification

ID/Password security, configurable access rights

Secure shell (SSH) security; supports numerous other security protocols

Network File System (NFS) and Common Internet File System (CIFS) support

RAW TCP, Telnet or SSH to a serial port by IP address per port or by IP address and TCP port 

number

Configurable user rights for local and remotely authenticated users

Supports an external modem

The SLC 8000 supports the use of single mode, multi-

mode fiber optic and copper SFP transceiver modules in 

dual SFP port models. SFP modules are provided by the 

user.

The back of the SLC unit appearance and function will 

depend upon:
1) The type(s) of I/O modules installed in Bay 1, Bay 2 

and Bay 3. See 

Table 3-8 on page 41

.

2) The type of I/F card (dual Ethernet port or dual SFP 

port) installed. If a dual SFP port is installed, then the 

type of SFP transceiver module (single mode optic 

fiber, multi-mode optic fiber, or copper) inserted into the 

SFP port will also impact appearance and function.

  

    Dual Ethernet Port

                       

                                    OR

            Dual SFP Port

                      

Three I/O Modular Device Port Bays
