Vertiv Avocent ACS8000 Serial Console Server 48-Port

The Vertiv Avocent ACS8000 48-Port Serial Console Server is an enterprise-grade out-of-band management platform engineered for data centers, network operations centers, and remote edge sites that demand continuous access to infrastructure regardless of primary network availability. Built around a hardened Linux-based architecture, the ACS8000 provides 48 RJ-45 serial console ports capable of connecting to routers, switches, firewalls, servers, PDUs, and other serial-managed devices, consolidating console access into a single, centrally managed appliance. The unit supports dual DC power inputs for high-availability deployments in telecom and carrier-grade environments where AC power is unavailable or unsuitable, and the integrated cellular modem provides an independent failover path when Ethernet WAN links are disrupted.

Ideal for

• Out-of-band emergency access to core routers and switches during WAN or LAN outages at remote data center or branch sites via cellular failover
• Centralized serial console aggregation for 48 heterogeneous network devices in a colocation or carrier-neutral facility, eliminating individual laptop-based console connections
• Regulatory compliance session logging for financial and healthcare organizations requiring immutable audit trails of all administrative console interactions
• Zero-touch device recovery and initial provisioning of network gear at unstaffed edge sites using automated scripts and remote console redirection
• Disaster recovery testing environments where out-of-band console access must remain functional independently of the primary management network
• Telecom and utility SCADA environments requiring DC-powered, ruggedized serial management infrastructure with redundant power feed support
