Out-of-Band Networking
An MRV Out-of-Band Network provides secure remote service port access and remote power control to devices in an organization's networks and infrastructures, including data centers, remote sites, and test labs. MRV solutions reduce costs and improve service levels by providing access to critical IT resources from any location.
Console / Terminal Servers
The LX Series Console Servers support 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 or 48 RS232 serial ports with an optional v.92 or wireless cellular modem, dual Ethernet, and multiple AC/DC power options. Rich security and management features are supported, in addition to distributed clustering, sophisticated automation capabilities, very strong encryption, and U.S. government FIPS 140-2 security certification.
- Wide Range of Applications — Enterprise data centers, Remote/branch offices, Telco central and remote facilities, Utilities, Test and development labs
- Remote console connectivity — Access equipment from any location, most equipment has a serial port
- 24 x 7 Lights out management — provide for unmanned, remote service, or automated testing
- Automated Notification and Actions — Enhance response time and increase system availability and simplifies operations
- Power, Environmental, Infrastructure Management — Monitor and control resources via a single management interface
- Industry-leading security — High level of encryption and secure access methods including FIPS 140-2 Certification
- Ease of Configuration — CLI, SNMP, and Web based management interfaces
- Connectivity via Ethernet, Serial, and dial-up
- Multi-level user profiles — allow user experience customization or manage equipment sharing
Power Management
The LX Power Control Series provides the ability to enable or disable power to managed devices, to reset equipment, enhance troubleshooting, enable redundant equipment, or control power access. The Trigger/Action feature of the LX Series allows site administrators and lab personnel to easily automate power, physical and security infrastructure control. This feature not only enhances troubleshooting but also allows managers to reduce utilities costs by turning off unused equipment extending equipment life span and reducing cooling costs.
- Power cycle individual power outlets to remotely reboot servers and network devices, anywhere in the world
- High Power Distribution: 120V, 208V, 240V and three-phase power options. 20 or 30-Amp power input feed
- 8, 16, 24 or 32 ports, vertical or horizontal mounting models
- Power-up Sequencing: Prevent an in-rush power overload
- Input Current Monitor: Measure the aggregate current draw on each power circuit monitor using LED digital display or remotely
- Automated alerts though SNMP, pager, SMS
- Group outlets by name, within a unit, or across multiple units
Sensor Networking
Sensor Networking support for low voltage alarm points as well as temperature\humidity is supported by all LX Series Console Servers. Simply configure an individual serial port for alarm management and the port becomes an alarm input and control output point for a wide variety of sensors. An external temperature\humidity sensor provides details measures providing detailed measurements for threshold level monitoring.
More sophisticated Sensor Management is supported via the 7204/7304 Sensor Managers. These devices are dedicated platforms that are built to support alarm and sensor management applications. Monitoring and controlling low voltage, high voltage, and analog sensors provides an array of options that can be used with almost any sensor or alarm device.
- Single management interface for sensor network, console access and power control
- Cost effective low density alarm capabilities without the need for additional hardware by using LX Series integrated sensor support
- Rapid return on investment by minimizing site visits
- High density IP based sensor platform eliminates multi-box solutions
- Industry leading security features, including SSHV2, SNMPv3, RADIUS, SecurID, TACACS+ and more
- Wet, dry and 20 ma analog sensor inputs and control output meet wide range of needs
- Integrated console server option with Ethernet connectivity, serial port, and v.92 mode
