UPS Serial Link for Desktops and Servers

This Schneider Electric cable connects an APC UPS to a desktop, workstation or server using a 9-pin DB-9 female serial connector on one end and an RJ-45 male network connector on the other. It provides a dedicated communication path for power management and monitoring software. The 6.56 ft length offers flexibility for rack or tower placement. Buyers needing USB or other proprietary UPS interfaces cannot use this cable.

Passive Cable with Environmental Certifications

As a passive serial data cable it draws no power and generates no heat or noise during operation. The unit weighs approximately 4.94 oz and meets RoHS, China RoHS, REACH and WEEE environmental standards. No active cooling or external power supply is required for normal use.

DB-9 to RJ-45 Pinout for APC UPS Units

The single specification that decides compatibility is the DB-9 female to RJ-45 male connector pairing designed for APC UPS communication ports. This pinout matches the signalling expected by APC management cards and software. Systems requiring a different serial pin arrangement or a USB connection will not work with this cable.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the DB-9 end to my server, and what is the common mistake?

Plug the 9-pin DB-9 female connector into the server's serial port; the mistake is forcing the RJ-45 male end into an Ethernet jack instead of the UPS management port.

Will the cable jacket or connectors degrade and need replacement?

The RoHS, China RoHS, REACH and WEEE compliant materials resist degradation; no scheduled replacement is required unless physical damage occurs to the 6.56 ft length.

What length limit affects signal quality on a long UPS run?

The fixed 6.56 ft length is the limiting factor; extending it with couplers can introduce errors under sustained data transfer loads.
