Battery Management Capabilities

System capacity

Using the APC Battery Management System, you can monitor and maintain
the batteries of one master unit and up to five expansion units, each unit
handling up to 64 individual batteries.

Five battery management expansion units can be connected in a group to
one master unit. The master unit provides the network connection through
its built-in management card so that the entire group can be managed
remotely through either one IP address or a serial connection.

The Battery Management System will support up to 244 lead-acid batteries
or up to 375 nickel-cadmium batteries.
