SecureLinx SLP combines intelligent power distribution, management
and load measurement into a practical, easy-to-use device which
enables system administrators to securely control the power to data
centre equipment.
In the event of a server problem or non-responsive system, individual
servers can be re-booted and powered off and on remotely, eliminating
unnecessary service trips. This capability is also a benefit when server
configuration changes require power cycling for the change to take effect.
The ability to remotely monitor power consumption helps maintain safe
loads on existing power circuits, and alerts administrators when and
where additional power circuits are needed. And, in order to prevent
overloads caused by a sudden in-rush of current when equipment is
powered up, the SLP provides the ability to power up devices in a predetermined
sequence. This ensures a more steady power draw, and
gives system administrators the option to turn on certain devices
before others, which can be a great benefit to networked data
centre equipment.
