Description

The Opengear CM8196-10G is a high-density 2RU console manager delivering Smart Out-of-Band™ remote access across 96 selectable RJ-45 serial ports, purpose-built for data centres, enterprise networks, and edge deployments. Dual 10GbE SFP+ uplinks (NET1/NET2) plus dual 1GbE copper interfaces (NET3/NET4) provide flexible, high-speed network connectivity, while a TPM 2.0 module, dual AC power supply with auto failover, Docker container support, and REST API integration make it a resilient and automation-ready management platform.

This listing includes 1 Year of Opengear Foundation Support (OG-FNTS-CM8100-1YR), sold together with the hardware as a mandatory bundle. Foundation Support delivers 8x5 regional live assistance across APAC, Americas, and EMEA via phone, email, and portal, with initial response times of up to 15 minutes via portal and 30 minutes via email. Critical (Priority 1) issues — including severe outages and DOA units — receive next-business-day RMA replacement in Australia (within 4 days internationally). Ongoing firmware and software updates are included throughout the support term, with a 95% SLA compliance target. Buy today from iptrading.com.au — fast shipping and expert service across Australia.

FAQs

Q: What does the included Opengear Foundation Support (OG-FNTS-CM8100-1YR) cover?
A: Foundation Support provides 8x5 regional live assistance (8 AM–5 PM Mon–Fri) across APAC, Americas, and EMEA via phone, email, and support portal. Initial response times are up to 15 minutes via portal and up to 30 minutes via email. Critical (Priority 1) issues — such as severe outages or DOA units — receive next-business-day RMA replacement in Australia (within 4 days internationally). Firmware and software updates are also included throughout the support term, with a 95% SLA compliance target.

Q: Can I extend Foundation Support beyond 1 year?
A: Yes. Foundation Support is available in 1, 3, and 5-year terms, with coverage extendable up to 7 years maximum. Co-terming with Lighthouse subscriptions and hardware warranties is also supported for simplified contract management.

Q: Can I purchase the CM8196-10G from IP Trading in Australia?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an authorised Australian B2B reseller of Opengear products. This listing ships from Australia, and our team provides expert pre-sales and post-sales support. Contact us for volume pricing, lead times, or configuration advice.

Q: What is the difference between the CM8196-10G's 10GbE SFP+ and 1GbE copper ports?
A: The two 10GbE SFP+ ports (NET1/NET2) are designed for direct, high-speed uplinks to core or spine switches in data centre environments. The two 1GbE copper RJ-45 ports (NET3/NET4) provide additional in-band or out-of-band connectivity options and are suited to standard network connections or management network segregation.

Q: Does the CM8196-10G support automation and DevOps workflows?
A: Yes. The CM8196-10G includes a REST API, Python scripting support, and Docker container hosting, enabling teams to run automation tools, monitoring agents, and custom applications directly on the device — without relying on external servers.

Q: What is the hardware warranty on the CM8196-10G?
A: The CM8196-10G carries a 5-year standard hardware warranty from Opengear, with an option to extend coverage up to 7 years. This is separate from, and in addition to, the 1 Year Foundation Support included in this listing.
