Abstract: An illumination system for energy efficiently illuminating locations e.g. offices, homes or ATM machine sites comprising a PoE switch supplying command and power to PoE-IP Illuminators, having energy-efficient LED light-sources. Using PoE+, light sources of over 20 Watts may be used. Each illuminator having a unique IP-ID is controllable over the PoE LAN. The system may include sensors and monitors such as: IP-camera, illumination sensors and entry detectors. At a remote ATM machine site, the system provides: illumination, voice assistance, surveillance security and banking. Renewable energy sources such as wind or solar power devices and rechargeable batteries allow pollution-free and remote location operation. Chainable IP-LED lights Daisy chained by a serial data channel and controlled by an IP-LED master connected to PoE line.

Abstract: Power control system for controlling power provision to an electrical device. An uninterruptable power supply (UPS) unit is mounted upon an internal circuit board of a host electrical device, and configured to provide a power reserve the host electrical device and client electrical devices electrically connected thereto. The power control system may be usefully incorporated into an intranet access switch having Power over Ethernet enabled connections.
