Data link device`s e.g. personal computer, power supply controlling device, has controller for receiving control signal for controlling power supply of associated data link device over network by data address that is known to controller

摘要

The device (1) has an interfacing device (68) for connecting the device with a controller (14) over a network (16), where the device is connected with a data link device (2) over a power supply line. The controller receives a control signal for controlling a power supply (72) of the associated data link device over the network by a data address, where the address of the device in the network is known to the controller. The device has a plug-in position for a plug connection of the device with the power supply line of the data link devices. An independent claim is also included for a system comprising a power supply controlling device.
