Digi Connect IT family of console access servers

Digi International has announced its family of Digi Connect IT serial consoles: Digi Connect IT Mini, Digi Connect IT 4, Digi Connect IT 16 and Digi Connect IT 48.

These infrastructure management solutions are intended to be used to connect remote IT devices in the data centre or to connect customer premises equipment, like routers, in a branch office with options from a single device to fully populated racks.

The Digi Connect IT family provides a scalable, equipment- and network-agnostic, console multi-port-based solution that allows for simple infrastructure management and continuous uptime regardless of physical hardware or network.

The Digi Connect IT family has the ability to select and customise consoles for specific user needs, but all purchases come with access to Digi Foundations - a comprehensive hardware, software, services and support subscription package is designed to speed IoT projects and enable their sustained success.

The offering includes 24x7 expert support, a limited lifetime warranty, access to essential application and software libraries, and device management with Digi Remote Manager (DRM), a secure application to monitor and control distributed IoT devices. DRM for Digi Connect IT products even allows users to manage the devices connected to Digi Connect IT via a single pane of glass.

Digi Connect IT Mini offers a single serial port with CAT M/NB-IoT connectivity. The other three offerings, however, bring users four, 16 and 48 serial ports – as denoted by their names – and connectivity via Digi CORE plug-in LTE modems. This allows users to select hardware with the proper number of ports for their use case and the right connectivity module – from CAT 1 to CAT 6 – to match their bandwidth and regional requirements, all while making future connectivity protocol changes as simple as plugging in a new modem.
