[j-nsp] Off-topic: terminal concentrators

[James S. Smith]

We use a Cisco 2811.  It's 1U, uses the same async NMs and WICs as the 3640s, and will handle 32 serial ports (might actually be more).

Hi,

I apologise if this is a bit off-topic for this list, but what do people
use for terminal concentrators?

We currently have Cisco 3640s with async NMs with serial patch panels
attached, but this is stupidly expensive, and 3640s are EOL anyway.

Ideally, what we'd like is a 1U device which has a number of
Cisco-pinout RJ45 serial ports and that can also act as a switch for an
out-of-band management network, with an SFP port for the uplink.
An EX2200 with a bunch of serial ports would be perfect. :-)

Has anyone come across anything like this?


Thanks!


Alex
