Introduction
Overview
The SN01xxCO and SN91xxCO Series features Cisco pin-outs and auto-
sensing DTE/DCE function, providing a direct connection to Cisco network
switches (and other compatible devices) without rollover cables for even more
time-saving IT infrastructure deployment. In addition, the SN01xxCO and
SN91xxCO models support online detection of connected serial devices
(including terminal blocks) for device status monitoring. A notification email
alert will be sent to the administrator when connected devices are offline.
With dual Ethernet ports and power supplies, the SN01xxCO supports power
redundancy as well as failover, or dual IP addresses access, ensuring 24/7
availability of access to serial devices. The SN01xxCO Series also offers dual
DC (see
Note
) options for more flexible implementation.
Note:
Available with DC power at customer’s request (SN0108COD /
SN0116COD / SN0132COD / SN0148COD).
Available in 8-, 16-, 32- and 48-port models, the serial console servers offer
both in-band and out-of-band (OOB) remote serial console access to servers
and network devices via a direct Telnet/SSH client and Java viewer. The OOB
management enables IT administrators to manage network devices (e.g. router,
switch, UPS) in server rooms using management networks that are separated
from the main/production networks. Where access difficulty occurs in the
production network, the administrators can still access them via the console
server. The serial console servers offer out-of-band access methods such as
direct console connection from a local computer, USB console connection
from a laptop, PSTN connection via modem, or hybrid network connection via
the dual LAN ports (one connected to the production network and the other
connected to the management network).
Implemented with various security technologies such as TLS 1.2 data
encryption, RSA 2048-bit certificates, configurable user permissions for port
access and control, local/remote/third-party authentication and authorization,
IP/MAC address filter, and FIPS 140-2 certified cryptography, the SN01xxCO
and SN91xxCO serial console servers assure administrators the security for
easy and high-level access. For instance, access rights and privileges can be
applied to 8/16/32/48 serial ports individually. Data encryption is provided to
