The SMS Power Switch is no longer available. See other IP Switch options

The SMS Power Switch is a simple remote power control switch that is fully operated and controlled by text message commands (SMS). An SMS Switch allows users to effortlessly control power remotely and reboot any equipment in seconds. The SMS Switch is 100 percent cellular, using its own connection and has no Data/IP/Wi-Fi capabilities. This makes it the perfect secure solution for rebooting and remote power control without having to add it to the local network.

Operating the 5GStore Remote Power Switch is easy for both enterprise and home office users. Simply plug the switch into the wall and plug the equipment that you want to control into the switch. You can then power cycle or reboot your business-critical hardware simply and quickly from anywhere 24/7/365, as well as automatically receive real-time power loss text message alerts and real-time temperature alerts (if the temp sensor is used).

Every function is controlled by text message, so you just send a text message from your phone to the switch using simple numerical commands — it’s as easy as that! You can also choose to control power automatically by time and date, such as setting power to turn on at 7 a.m. and off at 6 p.m. every weekday. You can control power by temperature as well. For example, when a heater is connected, you can configure the switch to power auto on when the temp drops to 60 degrees and off when it rises to 65 degrees.

An SMS Cellular Power Switch will save your business time and money by reducing the need for service visits. 5GStore includes a one-year warranty plus a year of SMS service and free technical support. Service costs just $25/year thereafter, which will more than pay for itself in site visits saved.

The 5Gstore SMS Power Switch will work in the US only. It cannot send or receieve messages internationally.

*12 months of service is included, with an allowance of 20 text messages sent or received per month. Excessive text messages may be billed at $0.10 each.

I use wifi switches to reboot my cameras when I can't physically reboot, however, wifi switches obviously can't reboot the router when it's down. The SMS Power Switch is a good, reasonably priced solution to reboot my router when I'm away from home.

By hooking up both my cable modem and my router to this switch, I’m able to remotely reconnect my internet connection in the house if it goes out. I have two homes and bought one of these for each.

Works great, now I can remote reset my home network, when my home has lost all network connectivity.

I PURCHASED TWO OF THESE OUTLETS TO POWER UP MY ICE EATER MOTORS PROTECTING MY DOCK POLES FROM BEING LIFTED OR DAMAGED BY ICE FLOWS ON THE ELK RIVER IN MARYLAND. I CAN DIAL IN FRON NEW JERSEY WHERE I LIVE AND TURN THEM ON &* OFF AS NEEDED. THEY WERE EASY TO SET UP (WITH GREAT PHONE SUPPORT) WORKED PERFECT ON TEST RUN. JUST WAITING FOR THE RIVER TO FREEZE.

Very expensive for what it does

Date Added: 09/04/2019 by Jack L. (Malone, NY)
I have this on a remote WiFi Router 1500 miles from my home. I have had to use it twice since I plugged it in and left the area or the summer season and it works like advertised. Saves me not having my Nest Thermostat and security and camera system not working in my absence since there is no one around there to go in and reboot the router if/when it stalls. Great product for piece of mind.
