The ePowerSwitch-X system sets new standards in the functionality of remote IT power management systems. With its unsurpassed security, comprehensive disaster recovery, Syslog support and flexible expansion to up to 136 switchable consumers – located anywhere within the building – it is the ideal solution for large, demanding applications.

Key Features

  • Highest security on the market: SSL 128-bit , RSA 1024-bit)
  • Emergency detection, signalling and recovery
  • Detection and restarting of crashed IP devices
  • Flexible expansion possibilities: switching of 8 to 136 consumers distributed over hundreds of metres
  • Two independent power circuits (2 x 10 A) per device
  • Contact inputs and outputs
  • Battery-backed, NTP-synchronized scheduler
  • Any number of consumer groups can be defined and switched in a specified sequence with a simple mouse-click
  • Temperature and humidity sensors
  • Syslog support

Groups

Up to 255 socket groups can be defined so that any combination of sockets can be switched with a single mouse-click. Delay times can be separately defined for each socket.

User profiles

Up to 255 user profiles can be created, and access rights to groups of or individual consumers assigned to user groups and individual users.

Expansion through control bus

The control bus links a master (with 8 sockets) to up to 16 satellites (also with 8 sockets each), making a total of up to 136 individually switchable consumers. The control bus uses a noise-immune RS 485 interface, allowing remote siting of the ePowerSwitch devices – even several hundred metres away from the master – using most types of existing cables, from CAT7 to telephone cables (at least 6-wire). The temperature and humidity sensors are also connected to the control bus and can therefore be located anywhere within the system.

Definable startup sequence

A separate On-delay can be defined for each consumer. This allows servers, routers, RAIDs, etc. to be powered up in a specific sequence after a power failure or a manual or automatic group restart. Until now, this had to be done in a painstaking manual process.

Temperature and humidity measurement

Up to four thermometers and hygrometers can be connected anywhere on the bus and monitored, logged or used to trigger emergency actions.

Scheduler, real-time clock and calendar functions

Automatically synchronized to up to two NTP servers, the highly accurate built-in, battery-backed clock with calendar function never has to be manually adjusted.

Simple operation

Despite its comprehensive functionality, the ePowerSwitch-X is simple and quick to configure and operate. The integrated manual and context help function provide further support and are automatically updated with each firmware update.

Emergency management – detection, signalling and automatic response

The ePowerSwitch-X Master continually monitors all system parameters, such as any power failures and recoveries, including its own, and the operating state of the connected IP-based servers, routers, etc. ( Guard function). External events can also be included: up to four thermometers and moisture meters can be monitored, and through eight contact inputs alarm systems, door contacts, smoke and water detectors and other sensors can be connected.

The scheduler and the input signals from these devices can be used to trigger up to 255 user-defined actions, which can include the following:

  • Restarting or switching on or off a connected device or group of devices
  • Sending e-mails to up to two recipients
  • Sending a message with definable severity to the Syslog server
  • Switching a low-voltage output contact at the master, for example for alarm bells, emergency coolers or pumps

Redundancy ensures maximum availability

The ePowerSwitch-X has two separate power circuits (Dual-Power function), each with two separate inputs, fuses and internal outputs. This doubles the switching current capacity and allows the supply of mission-critical servers with a redundant power supply. The HiAmp technology protects the fuses and ensures a long service life even at high inrush currents.

To maintain essential functionality (such as logging and sending alarm messages) even when both power sources fail, a third voltage supply (PSU or battery) can be connected to the master.

Serial control port

As an alternative to the network, the ePowerSwitch-X satellites can also be controlled through their built-in serial interface using a simple command language. No ePowerSwitch Master is needed in this case.

Comprehensive logging with Syslog support

All events – such as user logins and actions, power failures and sent e-mails – are recorded in a log file and can optionally be sent to a SysLog server. Events above a user-defined severity level can also be sent to administrators by e-mail.
