Manage your Smart-UPS
With the ap9640 APC network card you connect an APC Smart-UPS (equipped with a SmartSlot) to the network. This way you can monitor and manage the UPS remotely (SNMP, EcoStruxure™ IT, web browser) and the UPS can send a shutdown signal to multiple physical and/or virtual servers using PowerChute Network Shutdown software.

PowerChute Network Shutdown
PowerChute Network Shutdown is UPS management software that works with the UPS Network Management Card to protect Windows, Linux and Host ESXi, as well as hyperconverged and virtual infrastructure*. In the event of a power outage, PowerChute can properly shut down your virtual machines and the preconfigured boot sequence ensures they are turned back on.

*An additional license is required for HCI and virtual machine support:
1 year: SWPCNS1Y-DIGI
3 years: SWPCNS3Y-DIGI
5 years: SWPCNS5Y-DIGI

Remote management and monitoring via your network
The network card can be managed remotely via the easy-to-use web browser interface, remote management software EcoStruxure™ IT (SFTWES1-DIGI) or other SNMP-compatible system. Tip EcoStruxure™ IT also includes the functionalities of the support contract below.

Support contract
The optional network card support contract license** ensures that you are always up to date and secure and includes additional benefits such as frequent updates with:

Remote outlet switching
Stuck connected devices can be reset remotely using controlled outlet groups already present on the UPS and in combination with a network card, so that functionality can be restored without the need to deploy personnel.
