1.2 Presentation of the Network Management Cards (NMC)
MGE provides 2 different form factors for its
Network Management Cards
:
◗
NMC Minislot
for UPS systems like the Evolution, EXtreme C, Pulsar EX, Pulsar/Comet DX series.

NMC Transverse

Other MGE UPS systems (3-phase Comet, Galaxy, EPS 6000) can be remotely managed using the

The Network Management Cards acquire information on the operation status of the UPS systems and provide
remote control of these systems by means of an ETHERNET network from any SNMP administration station or
Web browser. They also supply alarms to the Network Shutdown Modules to trigger shutdown or other
automatic actions for protected servers.
A simple html browser is used for supervision and configuration.
