SLC 9000 Series
Autonomous Out-of-Band Management
Built for How Network Engineers Work Today
SLC 9000 + Percepxion™ is the autonomous out-of-band platform for teams that need reliable infrastructure access without a whole new platform to manage.With the Lantronix SLC 9000, devices provision themselves, serial ports identify what’s connected, and an entire network fleet is managed from a single cloud dashboard. It’s built for how networks are managed today: getting up and running quickly with minimal hands-on work, providing reliable, secure access to remote infrastructure, and integrating with automation tools already in place to spend less time managing your out-of-band and focus on managing the network.
Powered by a robust 1.8 GHz Arm Cortex dual-core processor and equipped with 128 GB of on-board encrypted storage, the SLC 9000 delivers the processing power required for modern NetOps and DevOps workflows. It features 16-, 32-, or 48-serial ports (RJ45 or USB) or up to 32-ports of integrated Ethernet switching, ensuring what’s deployed is what’s needed. With the addition of dual 1-10 Gbps SFP+ ports, the SLC 9000 ensures your management plane is ready for high-bandwidth demands.

Key Features
| How it works | Field techs cable up and skip the config session. When an SLC 9000 powers on, it calls home to Percepxion via cellular (no Ethernet required), picks up its baseline config, enrolls its serial ports, and appears in inventory. |
Serial access stays up through outages because cellular failover is active and tested so it's there when you need it. It's external to the SLC 9000 for optimal signal, but integrated with the software. |
Percepxion tracks every firmware version across every device, shows you what's out of compliance, and lets you push updates to a smart group from the UI. No SSH sessions, no spreadsheet. Config backups happen automatically. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Benefits | For teams deploying across dozens of sites a year, that's roughly two hours of saved labor per site and zero chance of a misconfigured box sitting unreachable because someone fat-fingered an IP. | When a device goes unreachable, Percepxion shows you exactly what it is and where it is. Every session is logged with a tamper-evident audit trail, so Ops and Security teams both have what they need after the incident. |
When something drifts, Percepxion flags it and has the last-known-good saved. For teams managing hundreds of sites, that's the difference between a proactive compliance posture and an poorly-timed fire drill. |
