Serial Power Control Solution for Any Ac-powered devices, computers and servers
ioPower for Serial Power Control [Cascadable Unit]
Introduction

ioPower can be used in standalone/Cascaded configuration.The ioPower provides 8 AC power outlets and can be deployed alone with a host PC for serial power control of any AC-powered devices. The ioPower proves to be a reliable and convenient serial power control solution that offers cost-effective power control solution to enterprise-level customers.

The ioPower is also capable of cascading with multiple downstream units into a daisy-chain configuration to maximize the port capacity up to hundred more. Thus you can easily control up to a hundred of AC-powered devices and/or servers.

IoPower as IP KVM Extender Accessory for Remote Power Control
When your servers or network devices just locked up and stopped responding, it can only be salvaged by cycling power off and on for a reboot. As simple as this reboot procedure can be, it nevertheless requires the admin to attend the server room just to switch the power off and on again. But what if the admin is worlds away from the server room and yet has to respond to this server lock up immediately? Well, an IP-based KVM Extender or IP KVM Switch such as KLE or Prima IP KVM Switch, with a serial power control unit, such as ioPower, might be the right and the only reliable solution....

In this servers crisis management infrastructure, KLE or Prima IP KVM switch offers an anytime anywhere access and control platform to your remote servers, and ioPower is the indispensable power control unit that enables the forced power on/off and power cycling capability from authorized remote clients.

To enable the remote power management capability of your IP-based KVM Switch Solution, you can connect ioPower with any IP KVM Extender or IP KVM Swtich that is equpied with a serial power control interface, which is capable of sending ASCII commands through serial connection.
