Reward yourself this Holiday Season with the gift of out-of-band management, and finally relax!

During these holidays, wouldn't you like to relax knowing your network is running smoothly? And if something does go wrong, you won't have to abandon the festivities for a drive to the site? That's the peace of mind our customers have gained by installing our out-of-band and remote management solutions in their data centers and remote sites.

The holiday period is generally a quiet time for new works, so what better time to start planning for next year? If you haven't yet deployed remote management for your critical infrastructure, why not get in touch to see how we can make 2014 a little more stress free?

It's been an exciting year for us - in January we launched the Lighthouse Central Management platform, providing secure monitoring, access and control of your distributed out-of-band network from one central point. More recently, we unveiled the IM7200 Infrastructure Manager. With GbE, dual SFPs, built-in Wi-Fi and optional 4G LTE, it's the most connected and powerful out-of-band management appliance on the market today.

As Gartner's 2013 Cool Vendor for IT/OT alignment, we enhanced our popular ACM5000 Remote Site Manager family with physical and environmental monitoring capabilities, as well as a flash drive for offline log storage, managed device config backups and T/FTP server.

As 2013 comes to a close, Opengear would like to extend a big THANK YOU to all our customers and partners who made this year a great success. Sincerely wishing you a safe and relaxing break and a Happy New Year!

Our sales office is closed December 25-27, reopening on December 30th. Our support team will continue to be available at support@opengear.com and inquiries to sales@opengear.com will be monitored during the break.

Hot topics at the show were how to build a cloud, big data, data storage and the convergence of network, compute and data.   Read more »
