Greetings, I am planning on deploying a console access server on my network for 20-30 network devices including routers, wireless controllers and other devices. The design is to have one central device for all console access. Due to the geographic diversity of my campus, I will need need to carry the async serial connections over my fiber plant with long reach optics and single mode fiber. I have the fiber plant to support this design. I have been researching solutions to implement the serial part, but I am not very familiar with the vendors I am coming up with. For instance, I know Black Box Networks makes products like this but they only seem to have stand alone devices. I was hoping for something rack mountable since I will have a dense deployment of these devices. Does anyone have experience deploying a solution like this or with async serial fiber transceivers in general? I welcome any suggestions. -Chris
