What this console server does

The Avocent ACS 8008MDAC-400 is an 8-port serial console server built for remote infrastructure management. It includes a built-in analog modem and dual AC power supplies for redundancy. A dual-core ARM processor with 16GB of flash memory handles automation scripting and zero-touch provisioning tasks.

Who benefits and who needs more

Network administrators managing up to eight serial devices at branch offices or data centres gain secure out-of-band access with automatic failover. Teams requiring more than eight managed ports or digital-only connectivity without analog fallback should consider higher-density or alternative models.

Capacity and headroom

Eight USB 2.0 ports connect serial equipment, IoT sensors and IT gear while digital I/O ports integrate environmental monitors. Dual gigabit Ethernet links provide network failover and in-band management. The 16GB flash stores automation scripts and logs, though very large script libraries or extensive local logging may exceed available space.

Questions about this item

What type of power supply does the ACS8008MDAC-400 need to operate?

The unit ships with dual AC power supplies built in, so it connects directly to standard mains outlets without an external adapter.

Will the ACS8008MDAC-400 manage my older rack PDU from APC or Raritan?

Yes, the console server includes expanded support for rack PDUs from Vertiv, ServerTech, APC, Raritan and Eaton.

How can I verify the ACS8008MDAC-400 is operating correctly after installation?

Check that both Ethernet links show activity, the built-in modem establishes a dial-up connection, and the front-panel LEDs indicate normal status for all eight managed ports.
