Console servers enable remote reconfiguration, restart, and imaging of serial console-connected devices like switches, routers, servers, PBXs, video conferencing systems, firewalls, PDUs, and environmental monitoring devices. They also ensure rapid recovery from power outages. The LES1600 provides reliable, simple management of network, server, and power infrastructure in data centers and remote sites.

Remote Access and Monitoring
Use the console server for easy, cost-effective out-of-band access to routers, switches, PDUs, firewalls, and other serial consoles. With optional 4G cellular backup and dual Ethernet ports, the LES1600 offers 24/7 operational reliability, control over the network, and environment. Configure and troubleshoot networks independently from the data network, enhancing reliability.

The console server features an intuitive status dashboard, proactive alerting, and secure, straightforward device control. Maximize uptime while reducing the need for on-site visits and field service.

USB Connectivity
The server supports USB 2.0 connections to Cisco USB console ports, allowing attachment of peripherals like storage and USB consoles, in addition to standard RS-232 serial console connections.

Dual Ports for Integrated Redundancy
Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports enable connections to primary and secondary networks. In case of a communication failure, the server automatically switches to the secondary port. Remote restart of computers is also possible.

Who can benefit from the LES1600 Console Server?

Businesses with remote offices
Organizations with limited IT staff and budgets
Co-location tenants in data centers
Cloud and hosting providers
Research and lab environments
Government agencies, educational institutions, and healthcare organizations
