About the Perle IOLAN SCG SCG18 U-M
The Perle IOLAN SCG M Console Servers provide data center managers with the ultimate solution for redundant, secure remote console management of any device with an RS232 RJ45 or USB console port. And, the IOLAN G16 RS-Multi Card, with 16 x software-selectable RS232/422/485 RJ45 interfaces enables organizations to connect a variety of serial-based devices to Ethernet. The integrated V.92 modem support provides multiple alternate access methods to manage, maintain, and troubleshoot critical network devices. With an expandable modular hardware platform, integrated firewall, two-factor authentication, advanced failover to multiple networks, and Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP), your IT professionals and network operations center (NOC) personnel will have everything they need to easily perform secure remote data center management and out-of-band management of IT assets from anywhere in the world. This cost-effective 1U rack solution also maintains protocol integrity across Ethernet and adds full IPv4/IPv6 routing capabilities with support for RIP, OSPF, and BGP protocols.
Modular Hardware Platform enables Console Management of all IT assets The modular IOLAN SCG M Console Server provides up to 50 Console Management ports supporting USB, RS232, RS422, and RS485 interfaces. The modular design of the IOLAN SCG allows the user to swap, upgrade, and scale to any combination of 16-port module cards to support all types of admin ports in one Console Management solution.
The Perle IOLAN SCG is the only industry solution that can support up to 50 high-density USB 3.0 ports that are compatible with all manufacturers’ USB solutions, including Cisco routers, switches, firewalls, servers (Solaris, Windows, Unix and Linux) PBXs, network storage equipment and security appliances.
The RS232 RJ45 ports are software configurable to use straight thru or rolled cables to connect your Cisco equipment and support DCD pin can be configured for 3rd party devices that need this extra signal. The software-selectable RS232/422/485 RJ45 interfaces simplify configuration and eliminate mechanical tampering associated with DIP switches. This mean the Perle IOLAN SCG supports more serial devices than any other Console Server on the market.
Advanced Network Security, Authentication, and Data Encryption 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) ensures access to equipment and data is limited to authorized users, while remote authentication (RADIUS, TACACS+, & LDAP) management, enables integration with enterprise-grade systems to control access to devices in the field.
The built-in firewall offers intuitive policies to protect inside networks from unauthorized access. The firewall also allows inside networks to be separated from each other. If there are network resources that need to be available to an outside user, such as a web or FTP server, these resources can be placed on a separate network behind the firewall in a demilitarized zone (DMZ).
Network data transmissions and access to remote console admin ports on IT equipment are protected through standard encryption tools such as Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL). By using encryption technologies, an IOLAN SCG M Console Server protects sensitive and confidential data before being sent across a corporate Intranet or public Internet.
