ORLANDO, Fla., June 7, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — In a significant development, Smart Charging Technologies (SCT) is proud to announce the launch of two pivotal products: the Switch Always On AC (SAO-AC) and the Switch Always On Hybrid (SAO-Hybrid). Designed to address the shortcomings of traditional IP power switching devices, which often fail during internet outages or power losses, leading to disruptions in operations. These devices address crucial gaps in power management, providing reliable solutions for unattended kiosks, ATMs, vending machines, and digital signage.

“Our innovative power management devices ensure that connectivity issues or power interruptions no longer halt business operations,” explains Dr. Nasser Kutkut, CEO of SCT.

Traditional IP power-switching devices often fail during internet outages or power losses, rendering them ineffective when most needed. SCT’s latest offerings, the SAO-AC and SAO-Hybrid, are engineered to combat these vulnerabilities. “Our innovative power management devices ensure that connectivity issues or power interruptions no longer halt business operations,” explains Dr. Nasser Kutkut, CEO of SCT. “With these products, we are not only delivering power; we are ensuring the reliability and continuity that our clients rely on. These exceptional capabilities give end users full and remote power control over their unattended terminal equipment and networking devices. This helps minimize downtime and decrease truck rolls and maintenance costs.”

The SAO-AC is equipped with multiple AC outlets, each with independent control for auto or remote rebooting. A sturdy Li-on battery supports it, which keeps the device operational for up to 7 days during AC mains loss. Connectivity is ensured through dual Ethernet ports, WiFi, and optional 4G LTE backup for uninterrupted monitoring and control. Additionally, it includes an integrated and fully controlled AC outlet, two programmable DC outlets, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi chipset, a backup LTE Cat 1 cell connectivity, and cloud connectivity for remote power management, configuration, and monitoring.

The SAO-Hybrid extends these capabilities by including two additional programmable DC outlets suitable for direct power supply to networking and auxiliary devices.
