Diverse devices management
Simple
ASCII or VT100 terminal emulation is not sufficient to manage these
wide-ranging device types.
Today's data centers contain a broad mix of Unix, Linux, RISC, mainframe,
and Windows servers, as well
as other serially managed devices such as routers, gateways, firewalls,
PBXs, UPSs, SAN and NAS devices,
and intelligent power strips

Proactive monitoring and warning to assist system diagnosis
Applications,
and even operating systems, send messages to the system console.
These messages
contain error and panic information that often precedes a system
crash. Unlike terminal servers,
console port servers buffer these messages in real time and allow
administrators to page through and
search this data at a later time,
and spontaneously send an e-mail to alert IT administrator of the
critical
event

Remote and Secure Power Controller
Via
serial port, this device acts as control master for controlling
power strip. Since it supports
RS-485 serial interface, it can control multiple power strips (up
to 31)
