IPM-8221 IP-based 8-port Switched Power Manager with 2 Cascaded Ports

The PLANET IPM-8221 8-port IP Power Management (IPM) device is designed to efficiently handle power distribution for a versatile array of connected devices which meet the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. Leveraging cutting-edge IP-based technology, PLANET has transformed conventional power management equipment into genuine networking devices that align with sustainable and responsible business practices.

The PLANET IPM-8221 can be monitored by PLANET’s Universal Network Management System (UNI-NMS) and smart discovery utility to support IT staff by remotely monitoring all network devices and powered devices (PDs) while incorporating ESG considerations into the operational status assessment. This integration ensures that the device not only meets the technological needs of modern networks but also contributes to environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and robust governance in the realm of power management.

The LCD panel on the unit shows the aggregate current drawn from a power outlet. This feature aids installers in preventing overloaded circuits by issuing a visible warning when the current draw approaches the strip’s maximum amperage. Within the configuration interface of the IPM-8221, you have the ability to monitor the current energy consumption in your office. This feature empowers you to make informed decisions to reduce energy usage, ultimately leading to significant savings on utility expenses.
