The power status of each outlet can be set individually, allowing users to establish on/off schedules for each device. Up to 15 additional PN9108U Stations can be daisy chained down from the original PN9108U, providing remote power management for up to 128 devices. Installation and operation is fast and easy: plugging cables into their appropriate ports and simple GUI management is all that is entailed.

Out of band connectivity is available with the installation of an optional PA0140 OOBC Module, and PN9108U’s firmware is upgradeable over the Net, so you can stay current with the latest improvements simply by downloading updates from our website.

With its advanced features and ease of operation, the PN9108U is the most convenient, most reliable, and most cost effective way to remotely manage power access for multiple computer installations.
