APC PowerChute Network Shutdown software works in conjunction with the APC UPS Network Management Card to provide graceful, unattended shutdown of multiple computer systems over a network. Its scalable architecture can support a virtually unlimited number of client systems. Easily configurable via a browser-based interface, customize command files can be run on each individual server in the event of an unattended shutdown. For applications requiring dedicated serial connections, an alternative approach is to use PowerChute® Business Edition.
