This sounds good. Except I'm a little confused. Is this a reboot bar which
uses Ethernet to do the reboots? Like a reboot bar, except in a PoE
lifestyle?

I post these items from time to time to the users list because I feel
they are useful to general Asterisk users. I have no affiliation with
this company and do not profit in anyway besides helping others that
may be helped.

Again, if more people object to these occasional posts, I will refrain
from posting.

Anyways, I have equipment at a CoLo that I could not justify putting
in KVMoIP and really only need a reboot if machine is "locked-up". I
found a product called a "Webswitch" that can only control two outlets
and that ran ~$200. This is a much better deal and is rackmount and
seems much more suited to a nice clean data center with higher
capacity.

I just purchased one to replace the webswitch (going to be used for
home use) because I have many more than two devices at my colo now.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

Ah, that sounds about right. A PDU.
I got all confused earlier.

So, this is just a PDU with some added bells and whistles related to
connectivity.
Thanks Matt.

Its just a PDU (power distribution unit) that has a web-interface (accessed
via Ethernet)... it looks like it has the added bonus of having some RS232C
ports that you can either attach a modem (to dial-into the device) or to
connect to serial-console based equipment, like certain routers and switches

so that you can access their serial console remotely.

Essentially its the equivalent of the APC AP7902 -
http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP7902 it
has
a couple feature differences, but for the most part they do the same thing.

However, the cost is significantly less than than the APC model.

I don't have any experience with either however.

All in all it looks like a decent product... i'd be interested in hearing
from
anybody that might of been using them for a long period of time (1-2yrs+).
I'm pretty picky about power distribution, i've seen bad power cause too
many
problems in my computing history.
