Western Telematic IPS-800-D20, IPS-800E-D20, IPS-1600-D20, IPS-1600E-D20 manual Introduction

1. Introduction

Electronic equipment sometimes "locks-up," requiring a service call just to flip the power switch to perform a simple reboot. The IPS-800/1600-D20 Series Internet Power Switches give you the ability to perform this function from anywhere, just point your browser to the IPS’s IP address, enter the secure password, and you’re just a click away from remote power On, Off or Reboot!

20 Amp Power Control

The IPS-800/1600-D20 Series Internet Power Switch provides plenty of power for rack mount applications; two separate 20 Amp power circuits provide a total of 40 Amps per IPS unit.

Intelligent Power Control

In addition to web browser access, the IPS can also communicate over any TCP/IP network using standard Telnet, or out-of-band using an external modem and basic VT100 type terminal emulation.

Security Features and Co-Location Features

To ensure security, web browser access requires the user to enter an assigned user name and password. The IPS provides two levels of operational passwords; the System Administrator Level, which allows access to all configuration and switching functions, and the User Level, which only allows access to assigned plugs and cannot be used to change unit configuration.

In addition to password security features, the IPS also includes an address specific IP security mask, which can be employed to prevent unauthorized network access to the IPS command mode.

Easy to Configure, Easy to Use

The IPS can be configured over the network, via modem, or locally via the IPS COM port. Easy to use commands let you assign a location name, set system parameters and view plug status. Outlets can be switched On, Off, or booted using plug numbers or names.

Reliability and Support

The IPS is built in the USA and backed by a two year warranty. NetReach products are installed in thousands of network sites world wide. Our customers know they can depend on WTI for superior quality and reliability for their most mission-critical operations.
