SPower Xpert Gateway Card - provides a data gateway from the UPS to the Power Xpert Software; provides remote monitoring through a Web browser interface, e-mail, and a network managment system using SNMP; connects to a twisted-pair Ethernet (10/100BaseT) network. Modbus TCP support provides direct integration of the UPS's parameters to a Building Management System (BMS). It has a built-in switching hub that allows a second network device to be connected to the network without the requirement of an additional network drop.

SConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card - has SNMP and HTTP capabilities as well as monitoring through a Web browser interface; connects to a twisted-pair Ethernet (10/100BaseT) network. It has a built-in switching hub that allows three additional network devices to be connected to the network without the requirement of additional network drops. In addition, a Powerware Environmental Monitoring Probe (EMP) can be attached to obtain humidity, temperature, smoke alarm, and security information.

SRelay Interface Card (AS/400) - has isolated dry contact (Form-C) relay outputs for UPS status: Utility failure, Low battery, UPS alarm/OK, or On bypass when interfacing with IBM® AS/400 computers, other relay connected computers, and industrial applications.

SModbus Card - provides direct integration of UPS information (meters and status) to a BMS using the Modbus RTU protocol.

SMulti-Server Card - has six serial communication ports that can communicate simultaneously with other computers using Powerware LanSafe® Power Management Software (provided on the Software Suite CD).

SModem Card - provides out-of-band remote notification and monitoring using modem communication directly to cell phones and pagers.
