I am seeking advise prior to buying a "serial to ssh" device, sometimes refered to as "serial server" or "serial port server".
You can get a 32port Lantronix for less than $1600. I have the SCS3205 and find it very stable and useful. You need to buy or make DB-9 adapters and patch cables though. If you get lantronix adapters, they are ~$19 each. A ripoff, but all the vendors get you on the adapters. Austin
