To further enhance the functionality of your Compaq
UPS, Compaq offers two option cards: the Multi-
Server UPS Card and the Scalable UPS Card.
Multi-Server UPS Card
The Multi-Server UPS Card seamlessly integrates
into your Compaq UPS through an option slot
available on the back of your Compaq UPS. The
Multi-Server UPS Card facilitates direct
communication with your critical servers (up to three
servers) via individual serial communication ports,
preventing the need to purchase additional UPSs to
support each server
The Compaq Multi-Server UPS Card is intelligently
managed through Compaq Power Management
Software (supported on versions 1.0 and above).
With the Compaq Multi-Server UPS Card, each load
segment functions as a separate UPS with individual
shutdown schedules and load segment configurations.
In addition, the Compaq Multi-Server UPS Card
enables system administrators the flexibility to
manage multiple platforms with one Compaq UPS. If
the network is down, the Compaq Multi-Server UPS
Card can still conduct prioritized shutdowns.
Scalable UPS Card
The Scalable UPS Card, also available through the
option slot on the back of your Compaq UPS, enables
multiple UPSs to work together as one virtual UPS,
providing scalability and field upgradability. The
Scalable UPS Card protects the valuable hardware
investments customers make as their power
protection needs grow. As customers deploy new
server hardware inevitably the power protection and
management requirements increase. Typically,
adding new UPSs also means adding complexity in
managing the shutdown, startup, and protection
requirements. The Scalable UPS Card ties up to three
single phase Compaq UPSs together, creating a
“virtual” two or three phase large UPS for the
management application. The user is presented with
the ability to manage this virtual UPS from a single
management screen, instead of being forced to
manage several UPS’s connected to several servers.
When users combine the functionality of the new
UPSs with the Scalable UPS Card, the management
application can offer control of up to 9 load segments
(when used with the R3000 UPS). The Scalable UPS
Option Card is fully supported under Compaq Power
Management Software version 1.0 and above.
