Connect UPS with two data links

[Anonymous user]

I'm a new member and I greet all the users of the forum. I use in my network Ups BE700G-IT and I wonder if it is possible and how to connect data link port to 2 device (nas and pc)

Hi Marcello,

I don't believe it has this option but we do have a range of standalone network surge protectors:

thank you for your reply and I apologize that my post was incomplete. I would like that in the event of a power failure two device, and not only one, could be shut down (nas and pc). Now data link port is connected only to nas because Ups has only one port.

Hi Marcello,

Unfortunately, this is also not supported, those units only have one USB port that can only be connected to one computer at a time.

To shutdown more than one device you would either need a Smart-UPS with Powerchute Business edition then use a script to shutdown multiple devices or a Smart-UPS with a network card and use Powerchute network edition.
