Glad to see the option for multiple environmental monitoring. Using in a hospital application and they're extremely happy with the alerts and functionality.
Pros: Good Value, High Confidence Level in 24/7 Uptime
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great card with nice security

The Card works well, but if you upgrade the firmware, or put the correct firmware on for your type of UPS you will still be able to ping the card but the Web Interface will not work. The fix is to unplug the card and then plug it back in and it should work fine.
Pros: High Confidence Level in 24/7 Uptime

No support for Smart-UPS 3000VA - poor support

Posted by: Jürgen

APC has no firmware for the AP9641 and a Smart UPS 3000. I tried to search internet and call APC/SE. But they have no information.
Hotline told me, that the problem is a common one. there is an easy fix.
But they can´t provide the firmware ..
Cons: Difficult to Use, Difficult Maintenance, Difficult Management, Too Expensive, Lacking Vendor Support
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about our site. I am sorry to hear that you ran into issues finding the software. The lastest, as of 12/6/2023, firmware for the SmartUPS with an AP9640/1 installed in it is 2.5.0.6. I will put the link for the product page at the end and once you open it you will want to find Network Management Card 3 (NMC3) Firmware v2.5.0.6 for Smart UPS with AP9640/41/43 (2.5.0.6). https://www.apc.com/us/en/product/AP9641/apc-ups-network-management-card-3-with-environmental-monitoring/

Great , FULL FEATURED ups network mgmt card
on July 9, 2024
Posted by: John9022
I love these apc network mgmt cards, i have deployed at leaste 10x of them and have never had one fail. The older models the battery for the real time clock was soldered to the PCB, which was a bit annoying, but on the newer ones they made it so that you can easily pull the battery out and replace it.
Their case it wasn't a huge deal as you can use NTP to keep the clock up to date when it's on the network. I'm not sure. I'm not sure about some of these complaints regarding security, as its pretty impressive the number of features they've added to these cards and exposed to the user. One thing I would like to see improvement on is the management of the various alerts.
there needs to be more grouping for the alerts.
Pros: Ease of Management, High Quality, Fast, High Confidence Level in 24/7 Uptime
I would recommend this to a friend!
