• 2-year limited warranty

NETWORK-M3 Features

Hardware Root of Trust Enables Enhanced Security
The NETWORK-M3’s innovative security features use a secure boot process that authenticates any attached firmware to ensure its authorized status and acts as a bottleneck to prevent a cyberattack from spreading if/when a threat exists. This “zero trust architecture” detects intrusions and locks down sensitive information for a level of security you can rely on. Email alerts are sent through secure SMTP and can be integrated with Google Workspace and Office365.

Enables Remote UPS and PDU Management
NETWORK-M3 turns a compatible UPS system or PDU into a managed device on your network. It enables remote management of a UPS through load shedding and safe shutdowns, and reboots protected devices attached to load segments. It monitors site electrical data, UPS self-test logs, alert logs and logged power events like blackouts, brownouts and overvoltage conditions. You can receive alert notifications via email or SMS. Real-time clock links to a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to maintain current day and date even after a UPS shutdown.

Designed for Convenient Operation
Zero-touch provisioning automatically commissions devices faster, saving time exponentially in large-scale deployments. A certificate manager helps create and distribute digital certificates to multiple devices, which reduces the administrative burden and streamlines UPS management. The NETWORK-M3 remote management card allows real-time monitoring from Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge web browsers.

Supports Multiple Protocols
This Gigabit network card provides versatile support through HTTPS1.1, MQTTS, TLS 1.2, SNMPv1, SNMPv3, NTP, SMTPS, BOOTP/DHCP, CLI, SSH, ARP and Syslog IP protocols to ensure alarms and alerts are properly communicated. DHCP/Manual configuration support enables automatic or manual assignment of network settings.

Works with a Wide Range of Platforms and Network Devices
Support of 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit networks makes NETWORK-M3 compatible with better performing, cost-effective and widely deployed Gigabit networks. Using a REST API simplifies integration with other systems, provides real-time data, supports scalability and automates M2M interactions, all of which can help to improve the security, reliability and efficiency of the UPS system. You can connect to a field bus via RS-232/RS485 connector (Modbus).

Optional Sensor Monitors Environmental Conditions
The EMPDT1H1C2 Environmental Monitoring Probe (EMP) Gen 2 (sold separately) provides remote temperature and humidity monitoring, as well as a dry contact interface to monitor alarm, security and telecom devices. You can daisy-chain up to three EMPDT1H1C2 probes to a host, allowing multiple sensor connection.
