TEST LAB APPROVED Advanced Modular SLC 8000 Console Manager ADVANCE CONSOLE MANAGER FOR THE DEMANDS OF TODAYS TEST & DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENTS ConsoleFlow With engineering resources often spread between multiple locations, the combined solution of hardware and centralized and automated monitoring management software can provide an efficient and cost-effective means for development teams to collaborate and test new products. Scalable Connectivity and Modular Design Key Requirements of T&D Labs Todays test lab environment has moved far from simple serial In-band communications based solutions to include newer devices that offer only USB Out-of-band management communications console ports. T&D labs need to be capable of handling multiple existing Remote reboot/restart of failed infrastructure remote locations and accommodating rapid expansion to support additional locations and engineering teams. Each Lantronix SLC Flexible and multi-tiered access control 8000 advanced console manager comes with a modular chassis that is Auditable logging for global and local teams expandable up to 48 ports. Most other console server solutions providers Port/event specific triggers integrated with still only offer serial connectivity and address USB connectivity requirements power management and load balancing with clunky adapters that insert potentially crippling points of failure to the critical part of infrastructure management schema. Build Any Combination Up To 48 Managed Console Ports With support for both serial and the next-generation high density USB 1. Pick a Baseline Configuration equipment, the SLC 8000 console manager allows administrators to connect to the latest networking equipment and to bridge the gap between legacy and OR OR new infrastructure solutions. The SLC 8000 is the only console manager on 8 Port RS-232 16 Port RS-232 16 Port USB the market today with the ability to build or upgrade your own solution with 2. Add up to Two Modules user-swappable USB and RS-232 modules. This helps busy lab managers to OR deploy modular infrastructure management solution by simply adding an I/O 16 Port RS-232 16 Port USB module to support new devices and reduce time for set up and configuration. High Bandwidth and Performance Horsepower is always a concern, and console managers should never be a bottleneck. T&D lab managers need a console manager that can run at full bandwidth on every port concurrently without over-subscription. With the ability to handle up to 15 users per port and support up to 396 concurrent sessions, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager delivers double the bandwidth of other console managers in the marketplace today.Advanced Modular Lantronix SLC 8000 Console Manager Robust and Flexible Infrastructure Benefits to the Lab Manager A T&D lab typically runs 24/7 thus requiring a robust and flexible Makes it easier to deploy new configurations environment that allows for testing both typical and extreme Allows for administration across multiple levels product deployment and usage scenarios. T&D labs are often used by of users (basic, expert, admin) organizations to deliberately break things to see how their products, Provides secure access to shared resources for services and applications will recover under typical and extreme situations geographically dispersed development teams and assist in ensuring that the finished products deliver the desired end- user experience. For IT managers and quality assurance (QA) engineers responsible for building and maintaining these environments, an advanced console manager is often a must have to help manage critical infrastructure resources that form the backbone of the T&D lab. The SLC 8000 advanced console managers out-of-band remote management allows busy lab managers to quickly connect (and reboot) - from anywhere and anytime. Fast Deployment, Policy Setting, and Management The SLC 8000 advanced console managers easy to use management tool enables administrators to speed up deployment. Context sensitive help menus and an intuitive user interface assist administrators to quickly make configuration changes, establish access levels and policies, and manage T&D lab resources. Compatibility With a Wide Range of IT Infrastructure Solutions In addition to supporting Cisco, Juniper, HPE, F5, Arista and other leading manufacturers USB and serial switches and routers, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager supports 140+ PDU vendors and other leading IT infrastructure equipment manufacturers. Key Benefits of Deploying the SLC 8000 Advanced Console Manager in the Test and Development Lab Reduce test case deployment times - The SLC 8000 advanced console managers easy to use GUI and CLI and the Lantronix ConsoleFlow centralized management tool help administrators and lab managers reduce the time required to deploy new test configurations and access rights, accelerating deployment of test environments from anywhere and at anytime. Ability to upgrade and adapt to diverse test scenarios - Mix and match USB and serial port modules allow T&D managers to leverage both legacy and new infrastructure systems while minimizing capital expenditures. Accelerate test cases with open, multi-vendor management - The SLC 8000 has the ability to manage and interface with many vendors products to automatically restart third party equipment to ensure recovery from testing failure through the Lantronix ConsoleFlow. Improve time to market and product quality - Audit level logging provides the data required for rapid analysis to find root causes of failures and deliver higher quality products.
