IT departments rely on out-of-band (OOB) management with console access servers as a highly dependable and flexible back-up solution. IT network engineers can use OOB to remotely reconfigure, reboot and re-image key assets, even when the primary data network is down. Digi Connect IT 16/48 lets you manage remote serial ports, and can also serve as a full-function router, to include failover between Ethernet and cellular. It has two 10/100/1G Ethernet ports and 16 or 48 RS232 serial RJ45 ports, two USB 3.1 Gen 1 USB ports, with an optional Digi CORE plug-in module for multiple cellular connectivity options (Cat-M, Cat 1, Cat 4, and Cat 6).
