  title: Nine Fives Programmable REST Attenuator Switch API
  version: '1.0'
  description: JSON REST API served on port 80 by the Nine Fives POE-ATTEN-6G programmable RF attenuator for programmatic control and monitoring. Faithfully transcribed from the published device reference manual; the device also exposes SCPI over raw TCP (port 5025) and HiSLIP (port 4880). No authentication is required — the API is served directly by the device over the local network (Ethernet or USB-C).
