ePowerSwitch 8XS Satellite

ePowerSwitch 8XS Satellite is a Power Distribution and Control Unit that enables power
management of 8 devices through an RS232 or RS485 Terminal connection. The controlled
power outlets can be extended up to 128 by cascading up to 16 Satellite models. This
ePowerSwitch is ideal to control power outlets through the serial connection of a PC, a KVM
switch or a Console Server. It can also be connected to a ePowerSwitch Master to extend the
number of controlled Power Outlets over IP.

Features

 On, Off, Toggle and Restart functions

Each power outlet can be turned On/Off, toggled
or restarted through an RS-232 Terminal
connection of a PC, a KVM switch or a Console
Server. The number of controlled outlets can be
extended up to 32 by cascading 4 Satellite
models.

 Two separate AC Power Inputs

To improve the security and increase the total current
load the ePowerSwitch 8XS Satellite has two
separate power inputs. The first one provides power
for plugs 1 to 4 and the second one for plugs 5 to 8.
This feature is ideal for power management of servers
with redundant power supplies.

 Sequential power up/down

Avoids the risk of a power inrush to blow a fuse
or circuit breaker in the data centre.

 Integrated RS232 / RS485 Converter

This ePowerSwitch can be controlled either using an
RS232 or a long distance RS485 network.
