SponsoredVertiv Avocent 16-Port ACS8000 Console System with dual AC Power Supply - ACS8016DAC-404
Vertiv Avocent 16PORT ACS8000 Console System is a high‑performance, rack‑mountable console server designed to provide reliable serial and network access to critical infrastructure devices. With its dual AC power supply, the system guarantees uninterrupted operation even in environments where power quality may fluctuate.
Design & Build Quality
The chassis is constructed from black metal alloy, offering a sleek industrial look while maintaining robust structural integrity. The unit measures 1U in height and fits seamlessly into standard 19‑inch racks, making it ideal for data centers, telecom rooms, and industrial control panels.
Power Management
Dual AC input** (100–240 V, 50–60 Hz)** ensures redundancy; if one power source fails, the other automatically takes over. The device consumes a maximum of 35 W**, typically operating at around 20 W** under normal load. Its low current draw (0.1 A**) keeps overall rack power consumption minimal.
Processor & Memory
The console server is powered by a dual‑core ARM Cortex‑A9 processor**, delivering efficient performance for embedded Linux tasks. It comes equipped with 1024 MB DDR3L RAM** and an internal flash memory of 16 GB eMMC**, providing ample space for system files, logs, and configuration data.
Connectivity
- Serial Ports: 16 RJ‑45 ports support RS‑232, RS‑422, and RS‑485 protocols. Each port can be configured with Cat4 to Cat7** or fiber cable types, enabling flexible integration with legacy serial equipment.
- Ethernet LAN: Two Gigabit Ethernet (10BASE‑T/1000BASE‑TX) ports allow for network management and remote console access. The system supports Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6+** cabling, ensuring high‑speed data transfer.
- USB 2.0: Eight USB ports provide additional connectivity options for peripheral devices or storage media.
Operating System & Management
The device runs a lightweight Embedded Linux** distribution, offering a stable and secure foundation. Management is facilitated through multiple protocols: CLI, HTTP/HTTPS, SNMP**, and SSH (SSH‑2). The web interface supports HTTPS with 256‑bit AES encryption**, ensuring that configuration changes are transmitted securely.
Security Features
Vertiv Avocent incorporates a comprehensive suite of security algorithms:
- Encryption: 3DES, 128/192/256‑bit AES, and FIPS 140‑2 compliant encryption for data at rest and in transit.
- Authentication: Local accounts, LDAP, RADIUS, TACACS+, and One‑Time Passwords (OTP) provide flexible user management.
- Network Security: IPsec VPN support, SNMPv3 with SHA‑256 hashing, and secure shell access protect against unauthorized intrusion.
Environmental Tolerances
The console server is engineered to operate in challenging conditions:
- Operating Temperature: 10 °C to 70 °C (range can be extended with external cooling solutions).
- Relative Humidity: 20–80% for normal operation; storage humidity tolerance extends from 5–95%.
- Temperature Sensor: Built‑in sensor monitors internal temperature, enabling proactive thermal management.
Compliance & Certifications
The unit meets stringent safety and quality standards across multiple regions: UL (USA), cUL (Canada), EN‑60950 (EU), CB, and Customs Union (CU). These certifications confirm that the device adheres to rigorous electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements.
Use Cases
The Vertiv Avocent 16PORT ACS8000 is ideal for:
- Data Center Management: Centralized console access to switches, routers, and storage arrays.
- Telecommunications: Serial management of base stations, repeaters, and network nodes.
- Industrial Automation: Remote control of PLCs, SCADA systems, and other serial‑based instrumentation.
- Security & Surveillance: Console access to IP cameras, DVRs, and access control hardware.
Conclusion
The Vertiv Avocent 16PORT ACS8000 Console System** delivers a robust, secure, and versatile solution for serial and network console management. Its dual AC power supply, extensive connectivity options, and comprehensive security features make it an indispensable tool for IT professionals, telecom engineers, and industrial automation specialists seeking reliable remote access to critical infrastructure.
