16-port cellular console server
The Avocent ACS8016NADAC400 is a serial console server with sixteen ports and dual AC power supplies. It provides secure in-band and out-of-band management for downstream IT equipment in enterprise data centres, cloud facilities and colocation sites. Cellular connectivity adds a failover path when wired networks are unavailable. This appliance targets administrators who need a single gateway for remote device access.
Capacity and headroom
Sixteen serial ports allow simultaneous console connections to multiple servers, switches or infrastructure gear. Dual AC inputs supply redundant power for continuous operation during a supply failure. Cellular failover keeps the management path alive when the primary network goes down. The unit does not support configurations that require more than sixteen directly attached serial devices.
