The Minuteman® RPM (Remote Power Manager) is
the ultimate power nerve center for controlling multiple
network devices and services. With a single Minuteman
RPM, you can individually control AC power for up to
eight connected devices such as servers, hubs, routers,
modems, and telephone systems. Up to 15 client RPM
units, each with eight outlets, can be added to control
a total of 128 devices.
Allows fail-safe rebooting from any telephone (cell
•
or landline) — to a dedicated RPM line
Allows scheduling of tasks
•
Offers password-protected security levels
•
Congure and control RPM units worldwide
•
through most standard web browsers using a
single network IP address
Protect against spikes and surges with a surge
•
energy rating of 950 Joules
Accommodates RPM technology with most
•
network and security protocols
“Daisy-chain” as many as 15 additional Minuteman
•
RPM client nodes to each RPM master unit
Manage as many as 128 devices with a single
•
network IP address
Manage devices from anywhere in the world

The Mi n u t e m a n ® Remote Power Ma n a g e r
(RPM) is the ideal solution for network administrators
who manage one or more remote locations. Once
connected to the network, you can easily control it from
virtually anywhere using a standard web browser and
your password. For example, you can reboot a locked
network router in another city by simply resetting the
outlet to which the router is attached. Several models
are available for 230 VAC, 15-Amp applications.
MultiPle Methods of
coMMunication & contRol
The Minuteman RPM offers several convenient and
exible methods of communication and control over
network devices:
LAN connection: Most users connect it to their LAN
•
using a standard Ethernet connection.
Telephone access: Unlike other power
•
management units, the Minuteman RPM gives
you control via a telephone with no additional
modem required — a very useful feature when
your network locks up or becomes inoperable and
no network connection is available. You can call
your master RPM unit from anywhere in the world
and, using the touchtone keypad, enter your
password and key in commands to reset devices
as needed.
External modem: You can also connect an
•
external modem to the Minuteman RPM via its
built-in RS-232 port to dial-up to the Internet.
Once connected, the RPM emails you that it is
connected to the Web with a specic address,
allowing you to control the RPM through a Web
browser, just as if it were connected to the LAN.
Scheduled event control: You can preset a day
•
of the week and a specic time to start-up and
shutdown individual devices.
Additional notications: To keep you informed
•
of events such as a server shutdown, the RPM
can submit its notications via pagers or network
broadcast messages.
The Minuteman RPM from Para Systems can provide
your system’s power management in a compact, costeffective unit.
