OpenGear's newer stuff is Gigabit (SFP even). I've not seen any real switch made in the last decade that has a problem with 100Mb/s connections. Ancient cisco, maybe had issues.
there are a substantial number of 10Gb/s switch that cannot do tri-rate on copper sfps. in previous $job oob--ilo-ports doing WOL/ and cdu(s) were the annoying 100Mbs/s only devices. terminal servers (all advocent in this case) made the jump aleady.

They even have a gigabit port without a $10k price tag. Amazing! It really dumbfounds me why so many vendors are still putting 10/100 Ethernet ports on their OOB management (looking at you OpenGear). Especially a PITA today since many switchports today don't support links speeds less than a gigabit. -richard On Fri, Feb 21, 2014 at 2:39 PM, Hank Disuko <gourmetcisco () hotmail com>wrote:Hi folks, I wonder if anyone has good experiences to share with out-of-band hardware? I'm looking for a good OOB hardware vendor. I need to manage my routers/switches/firewalls in a datacenter located overseas, and I'm looking to setup a good serial console server via an OOB link. I've been looking at Lantronix, OpenGear, Raritan...but they all seem to have the same basic features. I'm having trouble really differentiating them. I'm interested in analog modem, cellular options for my OOB link. Or even a secondary internet circuit either wired or wifi if the DC has that option available. Any good suggestions or experiences with a current OOB solution out there? What are you doing for your OOB management? thanks,Hank
