Power Switch Twin 32 Master

Power Switch Twin 32 Master is a power distribution and control unit that enables power management of 8 devices over a TCP/IP or RS232 serial connection. The number of controlled power outlets can be extended up to 40 by cascading up to four Power Switch Twin Satellites (PSE538SA) using standard RJ45 CAT5 network cables. Thanks to its two separate 16A power inputs with current probe, this power distribution unit is ideal for servers with redundant power supplies.

On, off and restart functions
Each power outlet can be individually controlled through a Ethernet or RS232 Terminal connection to turn ON, OFF or restart the connected equipment.

Two separate 16A power inputs with current probe
Thanks to its two separate 16A power inputs, this power distribution unit provides a total power-delivering capability of 7360 VA and can be used to control and measure current of servers with redundant power supplies.

Power outlets grouping
Up to 20 groups of outlets can be created to control with a single command servers with redundant power supplies.

Up to 40 users accounts
The administrator performs the configuration and the power outlets control through a web browser. He also creates and specifies the outlets access rights for up to 40 users.

Current probe / action triggering
The current consumption of each input can be remotely monitored through the Power Switch Twin 32 Master Rules can be created to control power outlets, send Syslog alerts, Emails or SNMP traps when predetermined alert threshold are exceeded.

IP device monitoring
The Watchdog function lets you monitor eight IP devices with specific services or ports (servers, routers, camera, etc.). In case of lock-up of the monitored device, this one can be automatically rebooted and alerts can be sent to Syslog or SNMP servers.

Internal clock / scheduler
An internal RTC clock allows to timestamp the events, messages and e-mails and to trigger user-specified actions according to a defined time table.

Easy and fast configuration
The network parameters configuration can be done through a convenient Windows tool.

Syslog messages
Event logs (connection, disconnection, power outlet control, power failure and action triggering) can be sent to 2 Syslog Servers.

Programmable power-up and restart delays
The administrator can set a power-up delay for each power outlet between 0 and 255 seconds. Furthermore, he can define a restart delay between 1 and 3600 seconds.

Programmable outlet status at restart
The administrator can define the outlet default status after a power failure (on, off or last memorized status).

Sequential power up/down
Avoids the risk for a power inrush to blow a fuse or circuit breaker in the data centre.

Programmable labels
A 32-character label can be attributed to the Power Switch Twin Master and to each power outlet to avoid confusion during operation.

On line help
A contextual on line help can be used anytime during the configuration.
