A centralized power control and monitoring dashboard providing granular, per-port management of networked switches and PoE outlets. This system serves as the operational control plane, enabling real-time observation and direct manipulation of power delivery, including consumption monitoring, on/off toggling, and controlled power cycling for individual devices.
Designed for both immediate intervention and long-term oversight, the dashboard tracks power draw per port, historical consumption trends, and switch state changes, allowing rapid identification of overdraws, faulty devices, or unexpected behavior. By combining monitoring with actionable controls, it enables safe and precise management of the home’s critical networked infrastructure, reducing downtime and supporting maintenance workflows.
Integrated tightly with Home Assistant, this control plane feeds dashboards, automations, and alerting mechanisms, allowing actions such as scheduled power resets, conditional shutdowns, and responsive recovery in case of network or device failures. By treating power management as an active, controllable layer rather than a passive utility, this system ensures operational stability, protects connected hardware, and provides a resilient foundation for both automated and manual interventions across the home’s networked environment.
