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.
