Power and control up to 4 power outlets or outlet groups via IP. The Power Switch NG is a series of power distribution and control devices that enable remote power management of many devices over the Intranet the Internet or locally through an RS-232 serial connection. It also allows to trigger a soft shutdown of a server and offers environmental control functions and IP devices monitoring. They support the HTTP DHCP Syslog and SNTP protocols.
Flexible and Expandable System The A-xBus on the front panel enables you to connect up to 4 peripherals to increase the number of controlled power outlets and/or to set up remote monitoring of your facilities.
On off and Restart Functions Each power outlet or power outlet group can be individually controlled through an Ethernet. The serial interface also enables the power outlets management over a terminal connection and to trigger a soft shutdown of a server with shutdown capabilities.
Programmable Restart Delay A restart delay (5-60 seconds) can be set individually for each power outlet.
Sequential Power Up/Down Avoids the risk for a power inrush to blow a fuse or circuit breaker in the data center.
Concurrent Access / IP security Access to the Power Switch is protected by name and password. The administrator account allows complete configuration and control of all power outlets over a web browser. The administrator can create up to 40 concurrent user accounts with restricted rights.
Easy and Fast Configuration Full configuration can be performed through the Web using a web browser. The network configuration can be done through the provided Windows tool over the LAN or through a terminal connection.
Programmable Labels To avoid confusion during operation you can attribute a 32-character label to each device power outlet group of outlets user account rule peripheral.
Programmable Rules The Power Switch NG can automatically carry out up to 32 rules to trigger scheduled tasks or to take predetermined actions (switching off a power outlet sending alerts messages) in response to a specific event (exceeded temperature threshold opened contact door).
IP Device Monitoring A Watchdog function lets you monitor 4 IP devices (servers routers camera...). In the case of a lock-up of the monitored device this one can be automatically rebooted.
Environmental Monitoring Many sensors (temperature humidity ambient light...) detectors (smoke liquid...) as well as dry contacts can be used directly with this system to secure your facilities and automatically trigger emergency actions.
Developer Facility Developers can use the specific page functionality (with or without identification) for easy implementation of the power outlet control through the network in their own program.
