Raritan and ZPE Systems: Migration from Dominion SX II to ZPE Systems Nodegrid Console Servers
08. July 2026 | Planegg
Raritan has discontinued the Dominion SX II Console Servers as of the end of 2025. With the third-generation console server solutions, fellow Legrand-brand ZPE Systems offers effective replacement solutions which continue providing businesses with reliable, secure, and centralized serial access to their IT infrastructure.
The Nodegrid product family offers a modern platform for out-of-band management, remote access, and centralized management.
Nodegrid solutions can either replace existing Dominion SX II installations or supplement and expand existing Raritan console server environments. This compatibility offers a particular advantage: smooth, gradual transition.
Existing Raritan Dominion SX II console servers and new ZPE Systems Nodegrid console servers can be managed together, allowing businesses to continue using their existing infrastructure while integrating new features for security, automation, and remote management.
