NETIO PowerCable Flat PDU, 2 US outlet (Power metering optional): No metering

NETIO PowerCables 2KB & 2PB are flat PDUs (Power Distribution Unit) with LAN (via RJ45 Ethernet) & WiFi connectivity. The term, Flat PDU, refers to its ability to be installed in limited space such as behind a TV, or in a double ceiling. Its ideal for areas where space-saving design and remote control are essential.

• AV equipment
• digital signage
• IT peripherals
• industrial systems

PowerCable 2KB is designed for environments that require compatibility with IT and industrial systems. It supports standard communication protocols such as SNMP, Modbus/TCP, Telnet, and HTTP(s) JSON, making it a perfect fit for server rooms, network monitoring tools, and automation systems. 

Best For: IT administrators, industrial automation, monitoring tools.

PowerCable 2PB caters to AV integrators and IoT system designers by offering compatibility with Crestron, Control4, RTI, and other automation platforms. It uses JSON over HTTP(s) and MQTT-flex protocols, making it particularly easy to integrate with smart building controls and AV control processors.

Best For: AV installers, smart buildings, digital signage, IoT developers.

Outputs 

Both of these flat PDUs are connected to LAN via RJ45 (Ethernet) or WiFi. Each output can be switched manually (on/off) over the web, through NETIO Cloud service, or with a Mobile App (Locally or via NETIO Cloud).

Output/Input for Metering Option (2KB only)

With metering option, both power outputs are metered and can individually measure power consumption (A, kWh, TPF, W, V, Hz).

DI (Digital Inputs) with 4-byte pulse counters can be used to connect momentary switches (dry contact) or S0 outputs of electricity, water or similar meters.

Open APIs (protocols, M2M)

Open API enables integration into third-party systems using a wide range of protocols (JSON, Modbus/TCP, SNMP, MQTT, Telnet, ..).

NETIO Cloud service 

For an additional fee, the NETIO Cloud service brings in the ability to control the outputs from anywhere. It also uses SSL/TLS security and servers in Europe.

AV drivers

AV drivers make it easy to connect NETIO sockets to professional Audio/Video control systems such as Utelogy, Crestron, Control4, etc.

Typical applications & Usage

Both PowerCables

• Remote restarting such as all appliances connected to the same circuit branch 
• Controlling the charging of e-bikes, boats and other appliances up to 3.6 kW (230V/16A)
• Controlling the outputs using Open API (JSON, Modbus/TCP, SNMP, MQTT-flex, Telnet, ...)
• Integration with various third-party programs and applications
• Controlling device from the NETIO Mobile 2 app
• NETIO Cloud service, provided for a fee, enables central control of outputs of multiple devices in various locations

Additional usages for PowerCable 2KB (metering option)

• Electricity metering and distribution
• Remote energy consumption monitoring in one or two circuit branches
• Measuring electricity consumption above 16A
