High amperage load switching

APC MasterSwitch Power Receptacles increase the maximum load con-

trolled by a MasterSwitch unit by allowing for loads to be shifted from

the MasterSwitch to a separate branch circuit. The variety of Power

Receptacles addresses different amperage (15A, 20A, 30A) and voltage

(100V, 120V, 208V, 230V) needs. The Power Receptacles have the same

dimensions to allow for custom configurations of up to three various

Power Receptacle units per Power Receptacle Tray (AP9510BAY).

Power Control and Distribution:MasterSwitch

™

Series

Remote power distribution units for network administrators, Co-Locations,

ISPs, and applications where remote control of outlets is required.

The MasterSwitch Series provides a variety of solutions for an array of

applications that exist in the technology industry. While every product in

the series has the base functionality to allow for remote rebooting or

power control of attached equipment, each new addition to the series

provides added features targeted to specific markets and needs. These

markets include server farms, datacentres, branch offices, ISPs, and

Co-Locations including many other applications. Issues that can be

resolved through use of the MasterSwitch range from remotely rebooting

individual devices to maximising runtime based on power anamolies,

toggling power based on environmental anamolies, and monitoring current.

APC MasterSwitch units share the following features:

Reboot network equipment

MasterSwitch eases the burden of managing remote sites and maximises

the uptime of servers and internetworking equipment.

MasterSwitch offers 8 relay-controlled outlets. Each outlet offers independent

switching of power to a connected load, which allows remote power control

without affecting other attached equipment.

Managing a remote site by using a field technician to reboot a locked-up serv-

er can negatively impact a company’s bottom line. MasterSwitch eliminates

such visits for more cost-effective network management via remote access.

MasterSwitch features embedded Web-based management

An intuitive, low-bandwidth graphical user interface (GUI) is available and

can be accessed by any Web browser. Security for this interface follows

the HTTP 1.0 password standard. Additionally, for enhanced security,

MD-5 authentication is a built-in option of any MasterSwitch. The interface

also lets the user set links to the connected equipment, other managed

devices, or to APC’s Web site and on-line customer support.

Manageability via:

• Web

• Telnet

• SNMP

MasterSwitch provides easy installation

To make installation as simple as possible, MasterSwitch can be configured

over the network or through a local terminal program by utilising APC’s

Web Wizard software. This allows the MasterSwitch to be controlled

through a remote terminal session. BOOTP is included for automatic IP

address assignment. If BOOTP is not available on the user’s network, the

device’s IP address can be assigned via the serial interface. Simply use a

Web browser, an SNMP management system, or a terminal program to

control power to your connected devices.

Individual Outlet Control

MasterSwitch provides power solutions for co-locators (COLOs) and

Internet Service Providers (ISPs). COLOs and ISPs can take control of

their businesses by giving control back to their customers. This is done

by administrators assigning individual or multiple outlet control to user

accounts. Customers then have the ability to control their equipment’s

power without on-site intervention.

Part Number AP9211

(NEMA 5-15 outlets, 15A unit at 120V)

Remote on/off and reboot

MasterSwitch (AP9211/AP9212) is a power distribution unit that targets

server farms, datacentres, and branch office locations. The primary function

of this device is for simple on, off, reboot control of remote equipment.

The MasterSwitch includes all of the following features. Flash upgrade

capabilities of the firmware via the Internet so future enhancements

can easily be installed in the field. MD-5 security adds extra protection

against unauthorised access by requiring an authentication phrase to be

utilized. Each MasterSwitch includes the standard APC web interface

so that it is easy to use with all other APC web enabled devices. The

MasterSwitch has a Universal Power Supply that allows it to be used

from 90V to 250V applications depending on the outlet requirement.

APC offers both NEMA 5-15 (AP9211) and IEC 320 (AP9212) outlet

equipped units.

Both units utilize Universal power supplies
