10 Installation and Quick Start
Expansion/Triple Chassis Installation
Step 2: Install
the Network
Management
Card
If the UPS uses multiple APC management products, you must
install them in the correct order for them to operate properly.
1. If a cable is connected to the serial port at the UPS or
chassis, stop the APC service that uses that serial
connection, and disconnect the cable.
2. If you are installing a chassis, connect the chassis to the
UPS serial port.
3. Use the same screws that hold the expansion slot cover in
place to secure the Management Card in the chassis slot.
4. Connect a network interface cable to the Management
Card’s 10/100Base-T network connector.
5. If you are using the AC Adapter (AP9505), connect the
adapter to the chassis. Then connect the adapter to an
independent AC input so that the Management Card can
continue to operate if the UPS is turned off or fails.
6. If you disconnected a cable in step 1, reconnect that
cable to the serial port at the chassis, and restart the
associated APC service.
7. See “Quick Configuration” on page 11.

The Network Management Card is sensitive to
static electricity. When handling the Management

more of these electrostatic-discharge devices
(ESDs): wrist straps, heel straps, toe straps, or
conductive shoes.
