Sena Technologies is pleased to announce the release of UPSLink, a serial to SNMP converter to control and manage the UPS over the network without having to run power management software on a server

UPSLink incorporates an integrated SNMP agent that sends UPS information and generates traps, using the RFC 1628 MIB standard This feature enables UPS management on compatible management stations such as HP OpenView, Novell Managewise and IBM NetView

The embedded web server, powerful 32-bit processor (Motorola MPC855T), and open Linux platform (Linux Kernel 2.4.2) in UPSLink facilitates further customisation of your power protection solutions.

Network managers can perform SNMP functions such as "gets" to determine specific power information, battery capacity or output load: and "sets" for implementing advanced network functions, such as "test battery", or "turn UPS off".

Web management interface of UPSLink displays information in the form of bar charts, and digital values for critical UPS data including mains voltage, UPS load and battery charge percentage.

The graphical display also provides detailed information on a wide range of UPS parameters, and offers users all the information they need for first level diagnostics.

UPSLink automatically records UPS events and alarms in an event/history log, and allows remote management of logs.

Having the ability to know when a UPS switches to battery power in a remote location can be very useful.

UPS Manufacturers, and System Integrators can take the benefit of SNMP equipped UPSLink to provide the scalable, and cost-effective solution to UPS device.
