Support for High-Growth AI Markets

Projected to triple by 2030, the global GPUaaS market is driving organizations to rapidly deploy high-performance GPU clusters at the Edge and within core data centers. These advanced, high-density environments require robust management solutions that deliver continuous uptime, proactive monitoring and streamlined recovery of critical AI workloads.

Maximum Operational Efficiency and Uptime

The Lantronix SLC 8000 ensures secure, vendor-neutral monitoring and management of every device within the GPU rack, even during outages. This level of resiliency accelerates recovery from network or system failures, reduces operational risk and simplifies large-scale configuration, all supporting uninterrupted service delivery and optimized resource utilization.

Scalable, Future-Proof Infrastructure Management

With growing demand for scalable AI infrastructure, the SLC 8000 and Percepxion™ platform deliver a proven management layer across all elements of the AI stack, from power and networking to proprietary compute nodes. This centralized, secure, out-of-band control positions organizations to respond to market opportunities quickly and confidently, supporting secure growth as business demands evolve.

Key Benefits of the SLC 8000 for GPUaaS Rack Deployments

• Resilient Out-of-Band Access: Maintain full control of all rack components, including switches, servers, PDUs, UPSs and custom hardware, even when the production network goes down.
• Vendor-Neutral Console Support: Receive seamless connectivity to RS-232 and USB console ports, plus dedicated Ethernet, for flexible integration with diverse infrastructure.
• Modular Scalability: Easily expand or reconfigure I/O modules (RJ45, USB, Ethernet) to support evolving GPUaaS environments without replacing the core unit.
• Enterprise-Grade Security: Maintain role-based access control, encryption and secure protocols to safeguard remote access from the data center to the edge.
• Centralized Intelligence: Access native integration with Lantronix Percepxion™, a cloud-based monitoring and orchestration platform that delivers proactive alerts, automated workflows, and real-time device visibility.

This deployment supports an advanced GPUaaS architecture composed of more than 20 interdependent devices per rack - including high-bandwidth switches, power systems and AI compute nodes - designed for scalable training, real-time inference and predictive analytics. The SLC 8000 acts as the remote management backbone, ensuring operational continuity in mission-critical environments.
