The AVIOSYS IP9258 is a 4 outlet power distribution switch that allows
individual outlets to be switched on & off remotely via a wired Ethernet
connection. This plugin extends the Perceptive Automation Indigo Mac
home automation application to support the IP9258 and allow each outlet
to be configured and controlled as a separate device. Models supporting
UK, European & US power outlets are available.
I’ve used these to replace X10 appliance modules where a number of
devices need to be controlled within a small area (e.g. behind the TV)
or where the devices being switched require a higher degree of
reliability than can be achieved using X10.
