The AlphaNet DM3X Embedded DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS Transponders allow monitoring of Alpha power supplies
through existing cable network infrastructure. Advanced networking services provide quick reporting and access to critical
powering information. This manual focuses on the DM3X Transponder complementing the XM2 CableUPS.
The DM3X Transponder utilizes Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Management Information Bases
