Smart PDU with 8 metered & switched IEC C13 power outputs

Protect Critical SFP Ports from Tampering, Damage or Unauthorised Access
The Lindy SFP Port Blocker provides a fast, effective way to physically secure unused SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) network ports. These compact blockers are ideal for safeguarding fibre infrastructure in sensitive IT environments, AV-over-IP setups, and networked installations where access control is essential.
By preventing unauthorised connections, accidental cable insertions or foreign object intrusion, Lindy SFP Port Blockers reduce the risk of port damage and potential downtime. A robust insertion mechanism keeps each blocker firmly in place, with colour-coded keys ensuring only authorised removal. Additional keys and blocker packs are also available.
Physical Network Access Control
Blocks unauthorised SFP port use and deters accidental cable insertion
Fibre-Ready Protection
Ideal for delicate SFP connections in enterprise and AV-over-IP systems
Quick Installation
Tool-free deployment – install or remove in seconds
Visual Cue
Indicates unused ports or identifies disconnected endpoints
Low Cost, High Scalability
Ideal for large rollouts with minimal overhead
Latching Design
Mimics the clip action of real connectors – for a secure hold

Data Centres & Enterprise Network
Protect switchgear, routers and critical optical interfaces from disruption.
Education & Public Sector
Prevent tampering with fibre links in classrooms, libraries and shared facilities.
Retail & Hospitality AV Installations
Secure fibre-based AV equipment and signage systems in publicly accessible locations.
Facilities / Infrastructure
Visually mark inactive ports for future provisioning
Libraries / Shared Workspaces
Block unauthorised connections in public computing environments.
Healthcare & Labs
Protect equipment in clinical environments from unauthorised connections.
Lindy SFP Port Blockers deliver precise physical control over fibre ports, helping IT and AV professionals reduce risk and maintain infrastructure integrity. Easy to deploy, visually obvious and highly scalable, they’re the smart choice for any network where protection starts at the port.

The Lindy 8 Port IPower Switch provides secure remote switching, rebooting and monitoring for up to eight connected devices, making it ideal for IT, AV and industrial environments where reliable and flexible power management is essential.
Designed for modern installations, the 8 Port IPower Switch allows administrators and integrators to remotely power devices on or off, perform reboots, monitor energy usage and configure sequencing through a web GUI, RS-232 or API-based control. This enables efficient management of critical systems while reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.
8x IEC C13 switched outputs
Independent control for connected equipment.
Web GUI, RS-232 and API control
Flexible integration into managed systems.
Monitoring and alert functions
Track voltage, current and consumption.
Dual Ethernet and sensor support
Redundant network ports and external monitoring.
Independent power control for each outlet
Switch, reboot and manage up to eight connected devices individually without affecting the rest of the installation.
Flexible control and integration options
Operate
the switch via web interface, RS-232 or supported protocols including
Telnet, Modbus TCP, SSH, SNMP and MQTT for seamless system integration.
Real-time monitoring and proactive alerts
Monitor
voltage, current and power consumption, with email notifications
providing alerts for overload and overcurrent conditions.
Configurable sequencing and scheduling
Set power-on and power-off delays to protect equipment and enable controlled restart sequences after outages or resets.
Enhanced environmental monitoring
Support for external sensors allows additional monitoring of environmental conditions alongside power data.
Built for professional installations
A
robust metal chassis, LED indicators, manual control buttons and
redundant Ethernet connectivity ensure reliability in demanding
environments.
The 8 Port IPower Switch is ideal for managing servers, network switches, routers, control systems, digital signage players and AV equipment in comms rooms, meeting spaces, industrial environments and control systems. It is particularly useful where remote rebooting, monitoring and structured power control can improve uptime and reduce maintenance effort.
The Lindy 8 Port IPower Switch supports input voltages from 110–250V with a current range of up to 16A and a total switched power of up to 2500W. It features one IEC C20 input, 8 IEC C13 outputs, dual redundant RJ45 Ethernet ports, RS-232 control via a 3-pin phoenix connector and two RJ45 sensor ports for environmental monitoring.
The unit includes monitoring for voltage, current and consumption, along with scheduling, power sequencing, power-off memory and protection against overcurrent and overvoltage. It supports a wide range of control protocols and APIs, making it suitable for integration into professional IT and AV systems.
Supplied with mounting brackets, RS-232 cable and UK and Schuko power cables, the switch is backed by a 3-year warranty.
