Connect Sensors to Sensor Ports
This procedure applies to the following sensors, which are supported by the NetBotz 455 and connect to the sensor ports:
•Temperature Sensor (AP9335T)
•Temperature/Humidity Sensor (AP9335TH)
•NetBotz Vibration Sensor (NBES0306)
•NetBotz Smoke Sensor (NBES0307)
•NetBotz Spot Fluid Sensor (NBES0301)
•NetBotz 0-5 V Sensor Cable (NBES0305)
•NetBotz Door Switch Sensor for APC Racks (NBES0303)
•NetBotz Door Switch Sensor for Rooms or Third Party Racks (NBES0302)
•NetBotz Dry Contact Cable (NBES0304)
For sensors that connect to A-Link ports (Temperature Sensors with Digital Display [AP9520T] and Temperature/
Humidity Sensors with Digital Display [AP9520TH]), see “Connect Sensors and Sensor Pods to A-Link Ports” on page 14.
Connect APC and third-party sensors to the four sensor ports labeled Sensors on the NetBotz 455.
•Third-party dry contact sensors require the NetBotz Dry Contact Cable (NBES0304). To connect a sensor to the cable, follow the instructions provided with the sensor and the instructions provided with the cable.
•Standard third-party 0-5 V sensors require the NetBotz 0-5 V Sensor Cable (NBES0305). To connect a sensor to the cable, follow the instructions provided with the sensor and the instructions provided with the cable.
•If a sensor cable is not long enough, use an RJ-45 coupling (provided with some sensors) and standard CAT-5 cabling to extend the cable up to 15 m (50 ft) for a Temperature/Humidity Sensor (AP9335TH) or a Temperature Sensor (AP9335T) and up to 30.5 m (100 ft) for all other supported sensors.
