1. General Description: 

 
The iBootBar

 Model iBB-DC8

 is a network controlled, eight port DC power control switch.  It supports input 

voltages of 9 to 36 VDC, and switches the input voltage on eight independent relay switches.  Remote control of 
each relay switch is via web browser, RS-232 serial, Telnet, SNMP.  The Internal Modem Version (model iBB-
8DC-M) also supports dial up control with either terminal or DTMF dialing tones.  Up to 16 iBB-DC8 units can be 
daisy chained and controlled via one network or serial connection.
