Works as intended, easy installation

Works normally, SNMP conforms to standard UPS formats. Mine immediately got a DHCP address. The web interface is a bit missing, it seems to be the front end for the Telnet/SSH session. Only one person can log in at a time, and as far as I can tell, there's no way to get SNMP-like status over XML/JSON, which would be a great feature. I also had trouble setting up authenticated SMTP email notifications, it doesn't work with the same settings I've used on other devices (e.g. Synology DSM). If I…

Pros
  • Remote management and configuration of UPS and ATS PDUs (HTTP/HTTPS) via web browser or NMS (SNMPv1/v3)
Cons
  • unreliable

Was excited but the new product is different from what is shown in the picture and does not work with our unit even though the part number should be

It was great as my family uses the internet all the time. I plugged it into the back of the UPS, plugged it in and it immediately got a DHCP IP…

Pros
  • Supports external authentication protocols RADIUS, LDAP, LDAPS and Windows Active Directory
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
