Sounds good. Let me know when you get em made!
I like the idea of DC reboot devices over AC reboot devices anyway.

Blair, it might be a good idea to allow for 48 v powering, since that is
802.3af POE standard. This way your device could be mounted away from
the Radio if one so chose to.

The comments on the list have shown me that there may be a demand for
a unit like this. I have decided to build my own. I have also
decided to make it available to others who might need it.
As part of this process, I am posting the planned specs and I am
asking for additional ideas for features.
Specs:
Hardware
10baseT ethernet port for communication.
1-4 pair of RJ-45 pass thru jacks with lines 4 and 5 switched.
Each pass thru jack pair is independently switched
Relay(s) rated for up to 48VDC at 3A
Power available monitor for switched jack(s)
Unit powered via 5-12VDC
Software
Setup and controlled via web browser or telnet
Static IP with subnet and gateway
Programmable ping monitor for each relay
Selectable 'keep alive' / 'I am here' ping
Adjustable power off delay
Adjustable power off time
Several things I am undecided about adding are:
Email notification of ping failure
Email notification of power available status change
Programmable, repeatable by time and date switching
(this requires a real time clock and/or automatic synchronization
with a time server and might increase the costs)
One thing I will not add:
Switching 110/220AC. This would add many requirements for testing and
considerable legal liability.
The price should be under $100 each.
Questions?
Comments?
Interest?
