Compaq Scalable UPS Card

The Compaq Scalable UPS card enables up to three UPS units to appear as a single virtual UPS to the host computer. Compaq Power Management Software gives users the capability to scale up the level of power protection available to the system.

For example, connecting three Compaq R6000 UPS units to one Scalable UPS card creates a virtual 18 kVA UPS. The virtual UPS would have nine independently-controlled load segments.
