Expansion/Triple Chassis Installation
When to use an Expansion Chassis
Use an Expansion Chassis or a Triple Expansion Chassis if the UPS has no card slot
available.
When you install the UPS Network Management Card (NMC) in the chassis, the
NMC communicates with the UPS through the cable connection between the chassis
and the UPS.
When to use the AC adapter (AP9505)
Use the optional AC adapter with a chassis under the following circumstances:
• To connect the chassis to an independent AC input so that the NMC can
continue to operate if the UPS is turned off or not operating.
• To provide the management products mounted in a Triple Expansion
Chassis with more current than the UPS can provide through the UPS-to-
chassis cable.
A Smart-UPS or Symmetra UPS can provide up to 200 mA.
For information about the current requirements for management
products, see “How to Install Multiple Management Cards” on
page 21.
Step 1: Disconnect the chassis from all power
Make sure that the Expansion Chassis or Triple Expansion Chassis is disconnected
from any power source:
1. Disconnect the chassis cable from the UPS.
2. If the chassis uses an AC adapter (AP9505), disconnect that adapter from
the chassis.
Step 2: Install the Network Management Card
If the UPS uses multiple management products, you must install them in the correct
order for them to operate properly.
See “How to Install Multiple Management Cards” on page 21.
