48-Port Console Server

The Digi International 70001949 CM is a 48-port console server designed for IT administrators managing network infrastructure. It provides secure, remote access to servers, routers, switches and other serial devices over a corporate TCP/IP network or dial-up connections.

Suited for centralised serial management

This unit suits environments requiring secure, centralised control of up to 48 serial console ports with authentication via TACACS+, RADIUS, LDAP or Kerberos. It is not for buyers who need fewer ports, single-port USB adapters, or wireless out-of-band access without a wired network backbone.

48 serial ports

The defining specification is the 48 serial ports, which sets the maximum number of devices that can be managed simultaneously. Buyers must confirm this port count matches their current rack density and future expansion plans before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What maintenance will the 70001949 need over time?

The 70001949 has no user-serviceable parts; keep ventilation clear and apply firmware updates from Digi International when released.

Which limit appears first during sustained 48-port console sessions?

The 48 concurrent serial sessions are the hard limit; CPU and memory headroom will be reached before network bandwidth.

How loud and hot does the 70001949 get in a closed rack all day?

Fan noise stays at typical data-centre levels and chassis temperature remains within the rated operating range for continuous duty.
