Remote Power Management?

[gfdcxgfd 0]

Hello,

long story short, Clients call and say "hey cameras X is out" and in most cases just turning off the power to the power supply box and then turning it on will solve the problem.

 

Question:

 

Is there a cheap device on the market which I can use to manage power from a remote location? So for example a power strip with an ethernet cord and I can hook it up the the local network and then remotely from the office, log into the power strip and turn off power to a port for a minute or two and then turn it back on again.

 

I know there are devices out on the market that are capable of doing this but they are just too damn expensive. I was thinking of something more budget friendly around ~$40 - $50.....I might be pushing my lucky but hey its worth a shot....any help is appreciated! Again I do not need anything too fancy or feature rich...just the more simple the better. Thanks..
