APC AP9810 Dry Contact I/O Accessory Network Adapter Kit Black

The APC AP9810 is a vital accessory designed to enhance the monitoring and control capabilities of APC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems by providing a reliable dry contact interface. This interface enables seamless communication between the UPS and external systems, addressing the critical need for integrated facility management and automated response during power events. It ensures that essential infrastructure components, such as building management systems (BMS), fire alarms, or environmental monitoring solutions, can effectively interact with the UPS.

Engineered for robust compatibility, this interface connects directly to APC Network Management Cards (NMC) equipped with Universal I/O ports, or dedicated Dry Contact I/O SmartSlot Cards. The AP9810 provides two configurable dry contact inputs and one relay output, allowing IT and facility managers to monitor external conditions or trigger automated actions. For example, input contacts can detect status changes from external sensors, while the relay output can activate external alarms or control ventilation systems based on UPS events, thereby translating technical signals into actionable operational benefits.

Ideal for data centers, server rooms, and critical infrastructure environments, the AP9810’s compact design allows for straightforward integration into existing UPS setups without consuming significant rack space. Configuration and monitoring of the dry contacts and relay output are managed through the intuitive Network Management Card's web user interface, simplifying deployment and ongoing management. This accessory is a cornerstone for facilities requiring sophisticated, automated responses to power fluctuations and environmental changes, ensuring operational continuity and safeguarding critical assets.
