Network management card for APC UPS

The AP9630 installs in an APC SmartSlot to give the UPS a 10/100 Ethernet connection. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, SNMP v1 and v3, Telnet, SMTP and TCP/IP for remote monitoring and control. Administrators can schedule shutdowns, log events and upgrade firmware over the network. The card replaces the earlier AP9617 model.

Who should use this card

IT teams that need standard network access to an APC UPS with an available SmartSlot will benefit from browser-based management and automated shutdown scheduling. Environments without a compatible SmartSlot on the UPS cannot install this adapter. Buyers who require Gigabit Ethernet or wireless connectivity will not find those interfaces on this card.

Key specification: SmartSlot compatibility

The card fits only APC UPS units equipped with a SmartSlot expansion bay. Verify that the target UPS lists SmartSlot support before purchase, as the adapter will not work with other slot types or with UPS models that lack an expansion slot entirely. The 10/100 RJ-45 port provides the sole network link.
