Tripp Lite B095-004-1E 4-Port IP Serial Console Server

Name: Tripp Lite B095-004-1E 4-Port IP Serial Console Server
Brand: Tripp Lite By Eaton
SKU: B095-004-1E

The Tripp Lite B095-004-1E is a 4-port IP serial console server that gives network administrators secure remote access to routers, firewalls and servers at branch offices. When the primary network link fails, an external modem or supported 3G USB modem plugged into the unit keeps out-of-band management available.

Overview

The Tripp Lite B095-004-1E IP serial console server centralizes in-band and out-of-band access to equipment installed in remote branch offices, wiring closets and other unattended sites. It lets network administrators reach routers, firewalls, switches and servers over standard Cat5e cabling without dispatching on-site staff for routine maintenance.

Because remote locations rarely have dedicated IT personnel, an outage normally means expensive third-party callouts or lengthy staff travel. The B095-004-1E removes that dependency by keeping a secure out-of-band path open even when the primary network connection is down.
