Network equipment sometimes "locks-up" requiring a service call to a remote site just to flip the power switch to perform a simple reboot. The NPS-2HD Heavy Duty Network Power Switch gives network administrators the ability to perform this function from anywhere on the LAN/WAN, or if the network is down, to simply dial-in from a standard external modem for out-of-band power control.
Intelligent Power Control
The NPS-2HD can be controlled over any TCP/IP network using generic Telnet, or out-of-band by using an external modem and basic VT100 type terminal emulation. Each independent outlet can be switched ON, OFF or Booted (OFF- delay-ON). Each outlet can also be assigned an individual password, device name, reboot delay time and unique power-up default state.
Security and Co-Location Features
The NPS-2HD unit employs address-specific IP security authorization to prevent unauthorized sources from entering the NPS command mode. Two levels of operational passwords are also available; the system administrator level, and individual user level. The user-level security features are ideal for co-location applications where multiple users may be allowed plug-specific access to the NPS-2HD unit.
Dual Power Bus Flexibility
The NPS-2HD is equipped with two separate 20 Amp power circuits. Each bus has it's own source AC inlet, circuit breaker and one switched outlet. This allows for switching redundant A/B power supplies or switching devices with high current requirements.
