Network Card-M3 purpose

The Eaton NETWORK-M3 is a Gigabit Ethernet network interface card designed for remote management of compatible UPS and PDU units. It provides a single 1000 megabits per second connection for network monitoring and control. This card targets IT administrators who need secure, out-of-band access to power infrastructure. It is not suited for general-purpose server networking or multi-port aggregation.

Sustained operation behaviour

The adapter maintains a steady Gigabit Ethernet link for continuous remote management traffic such as SNMP alerts, firmware updates and web-interface sessions. Throughput stays at the rated 1000 megabits per second during extended monitoring periods without burst-only limitations. Latency remains low enough for real-time power-event notifications across the network. The card does not offload compute tasks or accelerate storage protocols.

Thermals noise and power

The NETWORK-M3 draws minimal power from the host UPS or PDU slot, adding negligible heat to the enclosure. Its passively cooled design uses no fan, so acoustic output is effectively zero in normal rack environments. Physical dimensions are 5.2 in by 2.6 in by 5.2 in with a weight of 2.0000 lb, fitting the dedicated card bay without obstructing airflow. No external power supply is required.

Questions about this item

Does the NETWORK-M3 card generate noticeable heat or noise when installed in a UPS running continuously?

The NETWORK-M3 is a passive network card with no fan, so it adds no audible noise and minimal heat to the UPS enclosure.

Which UPS models must I already own for this NETWORK-M3 card to function?

The NETWORK-M3 is designed for Eaton 9PX UPS units including the 1500, 2000, 2200 and 3000 VA models listed in the compatibility data.

Will the NETWORK-M3 card work alongside an older 10/100 network switch I still use?

Yes, the Gigabit Ethernet port on the NETWORK-M3 auto-negotiates down to 10 or 100 megabits per second for compatibility with legacy switches.
