environments and with different types of devices. The Powerware 9155

t
well as monitoring through a Web browser interface; connects to a
twisted-pair Ethernet (10/100BaseT) network. It has a built-in switching
hub that allows three additional network devices to be connected to

addition, a Powerware Environmental Monitoring Probe can be
attached to obtain humidity, temperature, smoke alarm, and security
information.
