An improved assembly (e.g., an integrated power cycler and terminal
server) controls power and communications to a set of devices. The
assembly includes a network port configured to connect to a network, a
set of device ports configured to connect to the set of devices through a
set of power cords, and a controller coupled to the network port and to
the set of device ports. The controller is configured to (i) control
delivery of power from a power source to the set of devices through the
set of device ports and the set of power cords, and (ii) direct
conveyance of communications from the network to the set of devices
through the set of device ports and the set of power cords while power is
delivered to the set of devices through the set of device ports and the
set of power cords.
