摘要 |
The invention relates to a device ( 1 ), particularly a plug-in card, for a data processing device ( 2 ), e.g. for a computer, a printer or the like, the data processing device ( 2 ) being networked with at least one other data processing device ( 4, 6 ). The data processing device ( 2 ) comprises a main board ( 22 ) with interfaces ( 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 40, 42 ) for other components of the data processing device ( 2 ) and/or for the interaction of the data processing device ( 2 ) with a user including an interface ( 42 a , 42 b) to an electrical switching element ( 44, 46 ), via whose actuation the data processing device ( 2 ) can be switched on, switched off or reset. The device ( 1 ) is connected to a controller ( 14 ) via a network ( 16 ). The invention is characterized in that the device ( 1 ) has a power supply over the network ( 16 ), said power supply being independent from the data processing device ( 2 ), and that the device ( 1 ) is connected to at least a portion of the interfaces ( 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 40, 42 ) of the main board ( 22 ) of the data processing device ( 2 ) including the interface ( 42 a , 42 b) to the electrical switching element ( 44, 46 ) via whose actuation the data processing device ( 2 ) can be switched on, switched off or reset.
