A Black Box Rackmount Remote Power Manager enables you to reboot up to four network devices from across your network, by modem, or from the Internet. No more traveling to reboot your equipment in the middle of the night. No more service calls just to flip a switch.
Just type the power manager's IP address into your Web browser, enter your name and password, and you can access your network devices to switch them on, switch them off, or reboot. The power managers are perfect for remotely rebooting servers, routers, network switches, Web cams, firewalls, and many other network devices.
The Web browser interface works across any TCP/IP network-even the Internet-with any JavaScript enabled Web browser. Its intuitive interface features easy-to-use menus. Control power by plug number or by name (such as ATM Switch 1, Gateway, Router 1, etc.) that you assign to each outlet.
You can also operate the Horizontal Rackmount Remote Power Manager through an ASCII command line interface via Telnet over a TCP/IP network, through a modem connection, or from a local PC using a terminal emulator.
The power managers have built-in password security to prevent unauthorized users from switching your devices or changing your configuration. Both the Web browser and the command-line interface use 64-bit encryption.
Two levels of operational passwords provide an additional layer of security: System-level passwords provide access to all configuration and switching functions. The user level limits switching to assigned plugs and cannot be used to change the power manager configuration.
The power managers feature an IP-addressed 10BASE-T interface for network connections and an RS-232 port for modem or console connections.
