PowerControl-ATX

PowerControl-ATX is a dedicated hardware extension for out-of-band power management. It bridges the gap between the USBridge controller and the physical motherboard interface, enabling reliable Remote Power and Reset operations for headless servers and workstations.

  • Galvanic Isolation: Features high-quality dual optocouplers to ensure complete electrical isolation. This protects your infrastructure from ground loops, voltage spikes, and electromagnetic interference.
  • Cold-Boot Recovery: Provides a robust path for hard-reset and cold-boot scenarios when the host operating system is completely unresponsive or frozen.
  • Full ATX Monitoring: Supports standard motherboard headers including Power SW, Reset SW, Power LED, and HDD LED, allowing for both control and real-time status feedback.
  • Plug-and-Play Integration: Designed for seamless 1-to-1 connection with the USBridge 8-pin GPIO interface, requiring no complex wiring or external power sources.
