Keep critical infrastructure reachable when the network is down, the OS is unresponsive, or a remote site needs hands-on recovery. The Opengear CM8196-10G consolidates 96 selectable serial ports into a 2RU platform designed for dense enterprise console access. Dual 10GbE SFP+ and dual 1GbE interfaces give you flexible uplink options for management network design, while dual AC power supports higher availability in rack deployments. This model is built for teams that need more than basic console access. With an ARM 1.6 GHz 2-core processor, 2 GB of memory, and 32 GB of flash, it has the resources to support secure management workflows, TPM 2.0, and Docker-based extensions. The result is a console server that fits into serious infrastructure environments where scale, segmentation, and remote remediation are part of daily operations. For data centers, colocation racks, and distributed enterprise sites, the CM8196-10G reduces truck rolls and shortens recovery time by keeping serial access centralized and always within reach.
