8. Power, Environment and Digital I/O
NUT clients and servers all are embedded in each Tripp Lite console server, with a management console presentation layer
added. They also run remotely on distributed console servers and other remote NUT monitoring systems. Layered distributed
NUT architecture enables:
• Multiple manufacturer support: NUT can monitor UPS models from 79 different manufacturers - and PDUs from a growing
number of vendors - with a unified interface.
• Multiple architecture support: NUT can manage serial and USB-connected UPS models with the same common interface.
Network-connected USB and PDU equipment can also be monitored using SNMP.
• Multiple clients monitoring one UPS: Multiple systems may monitor a single UPS using only their network connections.
A wide selection of client programs is available to support monitoring UPS hardware via NUT (Big Sister, Cacti, Nagios and
more).
• Central management of multiple NUT servers: A central NUT client can monitor multiple NUT servers that may be
distributed throughout the data center, across a campus or around the world.
NUT supports complex power architectures found in data centers, communications centers and distributed office environments
where UPS systems from various vendors power systems and clients of all sizes and types.
8.3 Environmental Monitoring
The B090-EMD Environmental Monitoring Device (EMD) can be connected to any Console Server serial port and each Console
Server can support multiple EMDs. Each EMD has one temperature sensor, one humidity sensor and one general-purpose
status sensor that can be connected to a smoke detector, water detector, vibration or open-door sensor.
