Lantronix EMG751201S — EMG7500 Edge Management Gateway Serial and USB LTE Console Server

The Lantronix EMG 7500 is the compact edge management gateway in Lantronix's EMG family. It is aimed at branch offices, retail stores and unmanned locations such as ATMs and cell towers. The EMG751201S uses a mixed I/O configuration with 4 RJ45 RS-232 serial device ports and 4 USB Type A device ports. Many newer switches, routers and firewalls expose USB console ports alongside or instead of RJ45 serial, and this configuration handles both types from one 163 x 145 x 43 mm chassis. It also includes 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports, an RJ45 console port, a USB Type A host port for logging and a microSD slot. The internal LTE radio provides the out-of-band path. When the primary connection is congested or unresponsive, the gateway fails over to 4G/LTE automatically and fails back when the primary link recovers. Lantronix states all global carriers are supported, with Private APN, VPN access and public or private IP addressing. Cisco-compatible IP SLA traffic monitors network performance to help avoid lights-out scenarios. Access control includes TLS v1 through v1.3, a packet-filtering firewall, per-port user permissions, and LDAP/AD, RADIUS, Kerberos, TACACS+ or NIS authentication. Cryptography is FIPS 140-2 compliant (Certificate #2398). Each port buffers 256 KB and can log to local files, syslog, USB, SD card or NFS, with email, SNMP or syslog event notifications. The gateway works with Lantronix Percepxion for Networking for centralized monitoring, zero-touch provisioning and iOS and Android app access. Secure REST APIs and Python scripting support automation. It ships with a desktop power supply, also accepts an external 9-30 VDC feed, and uses 20 W.
