Module description

The LX-4000T Series Console Servers are a key component of MRV's Out-of-Band Network solution. Out-of-Band Networks provide secure remote service port access and remote power control to devices in an organization's networks and infrastructures. This nearly eliminates the need for physical presence at a device to correct problems or manage its everyday operation. MRV's Out-of-Band Network solution includes console servers, terminal servers, device servers, remote power control and management system, making the LX Series an ideal choice for secure remote access.
