Running an IT infrastructure effectively today often depends on being able to access, control and manage IT equipment remotely . While equipment can be installed in the data center, support from remote offices, factories, or other unattended locations is also important.
Although specialized management software can be used for remote online control, some tasks may not be possible to perform unless the equipment provides physical access. Many devices have a serial or USB port for making configuration changes or uploading new firmware . However, visiting remote equipment with the appropriate console cable and a laptop is a time-consuming and expensive operation.
