Sentry IPM-2
Sentry IPM-2
As enterprises and servers increase the amount of servers
and network gear in remote locations, the ability to
hands-on manage each device becomes increasingly complex.
The amount of equipment, the distance between each field
site and the ongoing constraint of the number of available
personnel make this challenge even more difficult. The
number one priority in managing each device is to ensure
that each element is operational—that is, up and running.
Two common examples where managing remote
equipment are critical to their organization’s business
are: 1) Remote branch offices with IT & network equipment
placed at each location, and 2) Wi Fi networks that
encompass many pieces of individual equipment at numerous
locations. In either case, the amount of equipment on
the network(s) far outnumbers the amount of IT/equipment
maintenance personnel. Their first priority is to keep
the network(s) up and running. In order to do so, they
require solutions that allow them to be able to remotely
restore locked-up or failing equipment, whether it is
a router, server or PC at a remote branch office, or
an access point or router at one its Wi Fi Hot spots.
Remote Power Management of the IPM-2
individual receptacles allows a network manager to power
off, power on and reboot network devices from any location
via secure web interface, SSH, or out of band (dial-up)
session. Now the network operations center can eliminate
dispatching a field service person for manual intervention.
Using a Sentry IPM-2 they can quickly restart locked-up
remote servers & internetworking devices to ensure that
the network is fully operational around the clock.

Global View for the Distributed Enterprise
Use the exclusive Sentry Enterprise View PDU Management
software to find, access and control all the Sentry
IPM-2 units on your network. Enterprise view uses auto-discovery
to locate and report each IPM-2 and other Sentry units
on your network and then provide access to control each
unit’s outlets settings. Turn on or off individual outlets
or use it to power cycle an outlet to reboot and hung-up
server or other device.
