Overview
- The APC Network Management Card 3 is a professional-grade UPS management solution designed for organisations that need remote visibility and control of their uninterruptible power supply systems. It connects directly to compatible APC Smart-UPS units via the SmartSlot interface, providing secure network-based access to monitoring, configuration, and shutdown functions.
Key to its value is the integration with PowerChute Network Shutdown, which enables organisations to automatically initiate graceful shutdown of physical servers, virtual machines, and hyperconverged infrastructure clusters when power events occur. This protects data integrity and reduces recovery time compared to uncontrolled shutdowns.
The card supports enterprise-grade security features including SNMP integration, multi-user access controls, and strong password authentication, making it suitable for regulated environments and complex IT infrastructures. Firmware updates are delivered remotely via FTP, ensuring your management capabilities remain current without requiring on-site visits.
