Battery Backup with Alarms

When the chassis is used with a battery backup power system, the alarm contact
sensor can be used to report conditions associated with the backup power
system. In this configuration, the chassis can provide a managed power fault
detection system.

The figure below depicts an APC PowerShield battery backup unit connected
to the chassis using the 8-pin terminal connector on the back of the chassis,
In this configuration, the chassis is monitoring the power conditions of the APC
units and will report any failures to the network management system.
