We use the inscape data switches/pdu/poe, they work very well can use AC or DC power. They are bit more then the target pricing (I get them for similar to $500). They do 12/18/24 and 802.3, but are limited to a 5 port only model.

Granted they are the least expensive rebooter on the market at less than $300, but I would expect a better failure rate than what we’ve seen out of them the past several years. I noticed on Digital Loggers site that they have a newer version available. Maybe this version is more reliable? I’ve also read that the DIN mount style rebooter is more reliable than the 2U rack mount style. Maybe Kevin could somehow integrate the DIN unit into his PoE controller to save costs and development. While I think adding a couple AC ports to this device would be neat….let’s not divert from the intent of this product from being a PoE controller. I wonder why UBNT doesn’t design a PoE controller that would fit the need? Seems like a natural fit product that they could also manage via their AirControl System management software.

If it can have a couple of AC ports to power a Mikrotik router (x86-based) and a switch, we don't have to ALSO buy another remote boot device ($350 value). Since we can get the remote booting with the digital logger box, then all your box has done is clean up our PoE's, and I wouldn't pay nearly that much.

Again, we were only going to build three, for our own use. If we sold something that was: Remote on/off per port Auto-ping reboot per port Dual-power supply, with notification on fail DC powered, either 12, 24, or 48v The one we are working on is 24v output only 1u rackmount or small form factor wall mountable SNMP for reboot, voltage monitoring, input monitoring We figured if it's a DC device, we can plug it into 110v easily with a transformer. If it was $450, would anyone buy them? Actually, what I really need to know is, would we be able to get rid of 90 of them? We'd have to make a batch of 100, and we could use 10. We'd get them back from the PCB manufacturer mid-May.

I want to be able to put these onto router ports as well as switch ports. I just want a rackmount multiport passive PoE controller, manageable per port with autoping and redundant power supplies. Is that so much to ask for??? ;) On 2/25/2011 9:42 PM, Brad Belton wrote: Once they add remote management, redundant power supplies and a “Auto-Ping” feature they’ll have a winner.
