Environmental Monitoring (optional)

CyberPower PDUs along with the environment sensor (ENVIROSENSOR) provide
temperature and humidity monitoring in a server closet and/or datacenter
remotely. To connect the PDU with ENVIROSENSOR, use the RJ45 Ethernet Cable.
Plug one end into the Daisy Chain (In)/ENVIROSENSOR port on the PDU and the
other end into the RJ45 port on the ENVIROSENSOR (as shown below). When the
PDU correctly connects to the ENVIROSENSOR, users can see the temperature and
humidity data on the Web Interface.
