Key specifications at a glance

Manage power events remotely

The card monitors electrical data, UPS self-test logs, alerts and power events. For example, it can record blackouts, brownouts and overvoltage conditions. You can receive alerts by email or SMS.

Remote controls support load shedding, safe shutdowns and reboots for devices connected to load segments. This gives IT teams a way to respond to power issues without being beside the equipment.

Secure network management

Secure boot checks attached firmware for authorised status. The card also uses a zero-trust approach to detect intrusions and protect sensitive information.

Secure SMTP supports email alerts, with integration for Google Workspace and Office 365. Network protocols include SNMPv3, TLS1.2 and SSH. You can also view live monitoring through Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.

Integrate with Eaton management tools

The NETWORK-M3 works with Eaton Brightlayer Data Centres Suite power management solutions. These tools support remote monitoring, automation and management across IT power systems.

A REST API can help connect the card with other systems and automate machine-to-machine tasks. DHCP or manual network configuration lets you choose how the card receives its network settings.
