Has anyone ever used a switched PDU for their home CCNA lab? Any recommendations?
I have been looking into the Cyclades PM10. Its about $30 on eBay.
I wish to have the ability to remotely power on/off my Cisco devices coming out of this.
I will then connect it to my Digi CM. (it is Serial only and not ethernet, so good thing I have the Digi)
I will have the Cyclades and Digi always on.
My plan is, When I am at work and need lab access.
I know the Cyclade's console pinout is different and a $4 adapter is needed to make it Cisco compatible.

- I will then ssh into the Digi,
- then connect to the PDU and turn on power to my devices
- Complete labs and power off.
