The Eaton Network Card-MS Mini-Slot Network Management Card (part number NETWORK-MS) delivers enterprise-grade remote power management and monitoring for Eaton UPS systems equipped with Mini-Slot expansion bays, including the 5P, 5PX, and 9PX series. This compact form-factor card integrates 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connectivity via RJ-45, enabling out-of-band management and real-time UPS status visibility across your data center infrastructure. IT procurement teams and infrastructure engineers rely on this card to eliminate manual UPS checks and automate shutdown procedures during extended power events.

The NETWORK-MS supports a comprehensive suite of industry-standard protocols—SNMP v1/v2c/v3, HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, SSH, FTP, and SMTP—with dual IP stack support for both IPv4 and IPv6 deployments. Management is accessible via an embedded web server, SNMP Network Management System integration, and command-line interfaces (Telnet/SSH). Security is enforced through HTTPS with SSL/TLS encryption, SSH access, and SNMPv3 authentication and encryption, alongside configurable user access levels. The card integrates seamlessly with Eaton Intelligent Power Manager (IPM), Eaton Power Xpert Gateway, and shutdown agents for Windows, Linux, VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, and Citrix XenServer environments. Alert mechanisms include SNMP traps and email notifications via SMTP. Optional environmental sensors enable temperature and humidity monitoring. Operating conditions span 0°C to 40°C with 5% to 95% non-condensing humidity; storage rated to -25°C to 70°C. Configuration is handled through web browser, SNMP NMS, Telnet/SSH CLI, or FTP firmware upload. The device meets CE and FCC regulatory compliance standards.

Enterprise Deployment Scenarios

• Remote UPS management and automated graceful shutdown in hybrid cloud and on-premises data centers
• Multi-site UPS monitoring via SNMP MIB reporting (Eaton MIB and RFC-1628 UPS MIB support)
• Compliance-driven alert workflows using SNMP traps and SMTP email notifications to security operations centers
• Secure management access for distributed teams using SSH and HTTPS encryption with role-based access control
• Environmental integration with optional temperature and humidity sensors for holistic facility monitoring
