SLB™ Branch Office Manager User Guide 15
The SLB device also provides features such as convenient text menu systems, break-
safe operation, port buffering (logging), remote authentication, and Secure Shell (SSH)
access. Dial-up modem support ensures access when the network is not available.
Models
Two SLB models have the following hardware components:
Two Models: The SLB branch office manager is available in a 100-120 VAC
output model (SLB088411-01) with NEMA 5-15R type outlets and a 208-240
VAC output model (SLB088412-01) with IEC60320/C13 type outlets.
Power Outlets: Each model has four outlets that allow power management
and control (on/off/reboot) of the attached equipment using a simple web or
command line interface.
Serial Device Ports: Eight serial RS-232C (EIA-232) device ports are for
remote console management of the attached equipment. These match the
RJ45 pin-outs of the console ports of many popular devices found in a
network environment, and where different can be converted using Lantronix
adapters. See D: Adapters and Pinouts for more information on serial
adapters and pin-outs.
Unmanaged Ethernet Switch: A built-in 8-port unmanaged Ethernet switch
provides convenience and helps further reduce required rack space.
Ports and Modem Slots: The SLB branch office manager has two 10/100
Ethernet ports (referred to in this User Guide as Eth1 and Eth2) and a front
panel serial console port (RJ45). The SLB device has two 32-bit CardBus
(PC card) slots to support storage cards or a PC Card modem for dial-in
access. The list of supported cards is available on the Lantronix website.
