What A Serial Switch Makes Possible

Major commercial businesses as well as private enterprises have long since installed intricate computer networks to manage employees, collect and disseminate data, manage customer information and in general to run the entity efficiently and effectively.  Many might wonder how a business is able to maintain a network of computers especially when some companies have thousands upon thousands of machines and other devices.  Routine maintenance on a personal computer takes some effort let alone performing tasks on multiple machines that are many times nowhere near an IT professional.  A simple piece of hardware and sometimes a software counterpart often called a serial switch, console server, server switch or some variation, enables network administrators to gain access, even remotely, to other computers and devices plugged into the network.

Customer service is free to clients but costs big business a lot of effort.
Many large companies of any sort maintain huge customer service departments with employees on the phone and in front of computers all day.  No matter who you are connected to in the call center, by using unique customer information, a call center representative can call up virtually everything related to a customer that the company has in seconds.  Computer networks for customer service centers can span an entire football field with hundreds of representatives handling thousands of calls per day.  Maintaining a system like this would be impossible without serial switches.  If all call center computers needed an essential firmware update, it would take a few IT specialists� days to run setup on hundreds of machines.  A console server or similar device however enables IT departments to access sleeping machines to perform routine maintenance tasks, updates, manipulate BIOS settings and more, a practice known as out of band management.
Fixing computer problems should not take all day.

Computers in many areas of industry have become standard workplace necessities.  Virtually everything is computerized from health records and customer data to technical support and even payroll within a company.  For many businesses, having computers malfunction causing lost productivity is a manageable way of business life.  Without serial or console switches, IT professionals would have to access the local machine right where the end user is sitting in order to diagnose and fix and issue.  Using this hardware on computers that are network reachable, an IT department can diagnose and fix problems using repair utilities, boot the machine from another drive or source and otherwise gain access to fix an issue quickly so that employees can get back to work.

So if you were ever wondering how companies managed to do all the work that goes along with owning a computer on multiple machines that are off location, a serial switch is the magnificent little piece of hardware that makes it possible.  IT professionals can manipulate network unreachable machines as well as gain access to in band computers to diagnose problems, install software, initiate firmware updates and a variety of other tasks as if they were sitting right in front of all the computers owned by the company.

Networking via serial or parallel pot?

A friend has couple of modern computers which she has successfully networked.

She also have an ancient Pentium 1, which is in good working order and which she also wants to network.

The machine has no USB or network port.

Essentially three questions:

Can I retro fit a USB or Network card to this computer?
If not, then are there networking possibilities with the serial or parallel ports?
Is there are device to convert serial to USB (I know the other way round is possible)?

System is running Win98SE and not powerful enough to take anything stronger.

use have only one method as
1. buy cable that both side of cable have same serial port.
2 next, install program like laplink ---> search on google web
3. after install the program both computers
4. connect 2 computers with cable on item 1
5. open laplink program of both computer
6. the computer ready to peer to peer
( if you can not use this program ----> search on google web )
" Howto laplink "
