General Description
The PWR-RMT-RBT (iBoot) is a network attached, IP addressed, web controlled AC power switch. Anyone
with a web browser can access the switch to perform power On, Off or Power Cycle (Reboot or
Power Burst). PWR-RMT-RBT is password protected for security.
PWR-RMT-RBT features international standard IEC320 connections and is compatible with power mains
worldwide. Dual Ethernet jacks with built-in 10/100 switch make installation easy.
Uses
•
Remote reboot of any device, routers, servers, kiosks, etc. The device to be rebooted need not
be network attached.
•
Secure sensitive devices by keeping them powered off when not in use. This prevents hackers
from seeing them at all times.
•
Power down equipment when not needed for power savings and to save on wear and tear.
•
Power up alert devices like sirens, lamps, messages; or control environmental system like
heaters, coolers pumps, etc.
Multiple Control Options
In
addition
to
the
capabilities, iBoot features several other
means to operate automatically
or under computer control.
Auto-Ping: The Auto-Ping feature allows
the switch to automatically detect failed
equipment and perform a timed reboot
or other power control function (like
turning on an indicator or siren). You
set any IP address to be periodically
pinged. When iBoot no longer detects
a response from the address, the
programmed power control function is
actuated.
Heartbeat Monitor: Like the Auto-Ping in reverse, this feature uses a periodic message sent to the
iBoot from a device. When that message is not received, the iBoot will perform the programmed
power control function.
iBoot Control Program: NTI offers an application to simplify operation of the iBoot. The iBoot
Control Program operates one iBoot from a command line or window. It can be called by other
programs to create an automated reboot system.
Direct TCP Control: iBoot can be controlled directly via messages sent via TCP. This feature allows
programmers to add power control directly to their application and build automated scripts in any
language to operate iBoot.
