Satellite is a power distribution and control unit that enables
power management of 8 devices through an RS-232 or RS-485 serial connection.
The number of controlled power outlets can be extended up to 128 by cascading
up to 16 Satellite models.
This 8XS is ideal to control power outlets through the serial connection of a PC, a
KVM switch or a console server. It can also be connected to an 8XM Master to
extend the number of controlled power outlets over IP.
