APC Cable, UPS Communications Smart Signalling (15' / 4.5m - DB-9 to RJ-45 Serial)

The APC AP940-1525A is a dedicated communications cable that links an uninterruptible power supply to a computer or network device so status updates, shutdown commands, and other smart signals travel accurately and on time.

One end features a DB 9 female connector that mates with the serial port on many APC UPS models, while the other end provides an RJ 45 male plug for the equipment you want to protect. The 15 foot length, equal to roughly 4.5 meters, lets you route the cable through racks or around office furniture without straining connectors or relying on extension cords.

This cable is a straightforward choice for system administrators who need dependable UPS monitoring in a server room, for small business owners protecting a single workstation, or for anyone wiring network gear in a remote closet. The lightweight build, about 0.4 pounds, makes installation easy, and the robust jacket withstands the daily movement that often happens during maintenance.
