Keep remote infrastructure under control when the production network is unavailable. The Opengear CM8116 provides 16 straight-pinout serial ports for direct console access, paired with dual 1 GbE interfaces for flexible network integration. Its ARM 1.6 GHz 2-core processor, 2 GB of memory, and 32 GB of flash storage give it the resources needed for stable console management and recovery workflows. This platform is designed for teams that need more than basic terminal access. TPM 2.0 supports stronger device trust, while Docker support gives operations teams room to run containerized management tools and automation closer to the hardware. Dual AC power inputs add another layer of resilience, helping keep the console plane available through power events and maintenance windows. For branch networks, colocation racks, and distributed infrastructure, the CM8116 helps reduce truck rolls and shorten recovery time. It gives senior IT teams a reliable path to diagnose, reboot, and restore systems without depending on the primary LAN or a local technician.
