Spectrum Control's (Fairview, PA) advanced systems group recently unveiled its SMARTstart intelligent remote power management system. The SMARTstart is a custom power distribution unit (PDU) designed through the specification of standard modular options and offering remote power management for ac or dc systems. These PDUs are designed to provide solutions to off-site network power control; they allow for system access in out-of-band, wireless and LAN/WAN applications.

Functions that can be incorporated into a SMARTstart system include remote on/off/reboot; over-current protection; remote programming; console, communication and modem ports; and security protection. Modular options include EMI filtering, monitoring and programmable control, remote reset breakers, wireless communications, built-in modem, emergency power-off, panel metering and alarm.
