Note An example where centrally monitored remotely distributed UPSes is useful is a campus or large
business site where there’s a multitude of computer and other equipment sites spread afar, each
with their own UPS supply … and many of these (particularly the smaller sites) will be USB or
serially connected.
Having a console server at these remote sites would enable the system manager to centrally
monitor the status of the power supplies at all sites, and centralize alarms. So he/she can be
warned to initiate a call-out or shut-down.
