Why a Network card?

Network cards allow for secure monitoring and control of
an individual UPS by connecting it directly to the network.

This connectivity is the conduit for your device’s data and
information, providing status, alerts and remote
capabilities. The notification features keep you informed
of problems as they occur, avoiding shutdown in the
event of an extended power outage, always keeping your
business information safe.

Network cards types:

IT-based

SNMP Cards connect UPSs to the network via Ethernet,
provide you with a complete UPS monitoring, control
and shutdown solutions in a networked IT environment.
You can control it using your standard web browser.

Industrial protocols

provide real-time management of UPSs by connecting to
any Building Management System Using Modbus TCP,
RTU, and BACNet.

Relay

provides the signal to your device through open or
closed contacts.

Environmental monitoring probe

enables you to collect temperature and humidity read­ings in rack enclosures and monitor environmental data
remotely using Eaton’s power monitoring solutions or a
standard web browser.

• Gigabit speed: compatible with better performing,
cost effective and widely deployed gigabit network
switches

• Compliance with Gigabit only data center networks

• Cybersecurity enhancements, including stronger

encryption, configurable password policy and usage

With faster speed and enhanced cybersecurity, the
Gigabit Network Card improves power system reliability
by providing warnings of pending issues to administra­tors and helping to perform orderly graceful shutdown
of servers and storage.

The new network card works with Intelligent Power
Manager (IPM) v 1.61 or higher to improve business
continuity by triggering policies configured to keep
mission critical applications running in the event of
power or environmental anomalies, including virtual
machine relocation or automated disaster recovery
action.
