48-Port Console Server for Rack Deployments

The Opengear IM4248-2-DAC-X1 is a 1U rack-mount device server providing 48 serial ports for out-of-band management of network infrastructure. It targets administrators who need dense, wired console access to routers, switches and firewalls from a single appliance.

Micrel KS8695P Processor with 64 MB RAM

The unit runs on a Micrel KS8695P processor clocked at 166 MHz with 64 MB of installed memory. Wired connectivity uses PPP and RS-232 data link protocols, while the 1U form factor allows standard rack mounting without consuming excessive vertical space in the cabinet.

Multi-Protocol Remote Management Suite

Remote management is handled through HTTP, HTTPS, IPMI 1.5, SNMP, SSH, SSH-2, TFTP, Telnet and VNC protocols. Authentication supports RADIUS, PAP, CHAP, TACACS+, Secure Shell v.2 and LDAP. Network services include DHCP, FTP and NTP for time synchronisation and file transfer.
