APC AP9620 Legacy Communications SmartSlot Card

The APC AP9620 is a robust Legacy Communications SmartSlot Card designed to extend the monitoring and control capabilities of compatible APC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems. This essential accessory addresses the critical need for seamless data transfer and management in environments utilizing legacy UPS-Link protocol, enabling integration with existing infrastructure. It serves as a vital bridge for older Smart-UPS models, ensuring continued operational visibility and control.

Leveraging its specialized design, the AP9620 facilitates reliable data transfer for UPS systems that rely on the UPS-Link serial communications protocol. It supports both RS-232 serial and, in some configurations, USB connectivity, allowing administrators to gather real-time status updates, configure settings, and execute graceful shutdowns. This capability translates directly into enhanced operational efficiency and proactive power infrastructure management, often reducing the need for direct physical access to UPS units for basic oversight and maintenance tasks.

Designed for straightforward integration, this SmartSlot card utilizes APC's proprietary SmartSlot interface, enabling direct installation into compatible UPS systems. Its compact form factor ensures a secure and streamlined connection, making it an ideal component for maintaining essential communication with legacy APC UPS units, particularly for custom applications dependent on the UPS-Link serial communications protocol. It is specifically compatible with SC, SMC, SMX, SMT, SURTD, and SRT UPS models.
