Power Management Solutions

Benefits of using Eaton´s Power Management

Solutions

• Real-time notification makes it easy to prevent or analyse pos-

sible failures immediately

• Helps to prevent data losses by enabling controlled shutdown

of servers and PC operating systems

• View and analyse power events and measured values from

recorded logs

• Save time and money with remote equipment control,

which removes the need for additional site visits to restart

equipment. It also enables prolonged runtime of essential

equipment during power outages by allowing orderly remote

shutdown of non-critical systems and processes.

Connection to IP networks

There are two ways of connecting a UPS to an IP network:

• adding a Web/SNMP card to the UPS, which becomes the

interface to the network;

• using the web interface of Intelligent Power Protector software

on a nearby computer connected to the UPS via serial or USB

cable.

Network Management Card

Web/SNMP cards are recommended for central UPS systems that

protect a complete network or for UPS systems providing back-

up for critical equipment. When the card is fitted, the UPS has its

own IP address with local intelligence to:

• serve web pages with reports, settings and alarms;

• plug in to SNMP-based network management systems such as

HP Network Management Center and IBM Tivoli.

• communicate with shutdown software installed on the servers

to be protected.

Improve equipment reliability and guarantee data integrity

Uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) are used as backup systems in case of a power failure to prevent downtime.

This type of protection is essential, but is only fully effective if the user is in control of the situation. With Eaton´s Power

Management Solutions, the user is notified immediately of the status of the power quality and distribution system and

can initiate automatic actions depending on the events, control the system remotely and manage it more effectively.
