UPS Network Management Card 3 with Environmental Monitoring and Modbus (AP9643)

The UPS Network Management Card 3 with Environmental Monitoring and Modbus (AP9643) is a secure network management solution designed to provide remote monitoring and management of compatible UPS systems. It gives IT and facility administrators mission-critical visibility into UPS status, operating conditions, events and performance through a secure network connection.

The AP9643 provides secure remote UPS monitoring and management through a browser-accessible interface. Administrators can access UPS information remotely from anywhere on a secure network, reducing the need for local access and helping simplify routine monitoring, troubleshooting and management.

The card features a high-speed processor and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for responsive network management. It supports simultaneous multiple user logins and provides both a user-friendly web interface and Command Line Interface (CLI) for different administration requirements.

The AP9643 provides real-time event notifications to help administrators respond quickly to important UPS conditions. Detailed data and event logging provides historical information that can be used for troubleshooting, operational analysis and proactive maintenance.

A key feature of the AP9643 is its environmental monitoring capability. The card includes Universal I/O (UIO) ports that enable support for compatible environmental monitoring devices. This allows connected temperature, humidity and other supported environmental sensors to be incorporated into UPS and infrastructure monitoring.

The AP9643 also includes an RS-485 serial port supporting Modbus RTU. Modbus connectivity allows the UPS management system to communicate with compatible building management and automation systems where Modbus RTU integration is required.

For centralized infrastructure management, the AP9643 integrates with EcoStruxure IT. It also supports PowerChute Network Shutdown, enabling graceful shutdown, unattended startup and supported business-continuity functions for connected IT infrastructure.

The card supports integration with SNMP-enabled management systems, allowing UPS information and events to be incorporated into existing network-management and monitoring environments.

Security is an important part of the NMC3 architecture. The AP9643 incorporates advanced security technologies and supports firmware that is independently certified to the IEC 62443-4-2 standard. The card is designed to help protect sensitive UPS management information and network access.

The AP9643 includes a 1-Year Secure NMC System subscription. The included subscription provides access to the latest firmware during the subscription period, helping keep the network management card up to date with current firmware and security improvements. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

The AP9643 is compatible with a range of single-phase and three-phase UPS systems, including selected Smart-UPS, Symmetra and compatible three-phase UPS platforms. Compatibility varies by UPS model, so the specific UPS should be checked against the manufacturer’s compatibility information before installation. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

The APC UPS Network Management Card 3 AP9643 combines secure remote UPS management, environmental monitoring, Modbus RTU connectivity, Gigabit Ethernet, event notification, data logging and integration with enterprise management platforms, making it suitable for data centers, IT environments, facilities and other applications requiring centralized UPS monitoring and control.
