Description

The Opengear OM2248-L is a rack-mount Operations Manager console server delivering 48 fully selectable RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial ports driven by an x86 quad-core processor, purpose-built for out-of-band management of critical network, server, and power infrastructure. Each serial port is independently configurable, enabling flexible deployment across mixed-vendor environments, while dual Gigabit Ethernet management ports, USB host ports, and onboard storage ensure resilient, always-on access even during primary network outages.

This listing includes 1 Year of Opengear Foundation Support (OG-FNTS-OM2200-1YR), 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.
