PowerSure PSA1000MT
[4] 		10.2 (x86_64) serial RS232 DB-9

(actually USB to serial PL-2303, Prolific, [5], kernel module usbserial, my MBO Asus AT8 has no native serial connections, and, sadly, their staff weren't able to point out this solution to me; local store did, Croatia, HGSpot)
- network monitoring through RS-232 attached box
- USB (so called contact closure, local monitoring, not tested)

MultiLink 1.5 (build 51)
[6] 		- Propietary software for monitoring/shutting more devices at extra cost. Already expensive as it is. See if it's worhth it. May be. My first contact for now...
