I don't think so. I have not used the management ports on UPS's (yet haha). I am guessing you just connect it and then access the console via web/telnet from your network.

 

I am 99% sure you can just connect. Also it is better to use SuperUser for these types of questions, not StackOverflow :P

If the UPS has an ethernet port (as opposed to a serial port in RJ45 as common on switches and routers) then you normally connect it to your network and not to any single server. And then the UPS manufacturer will have software than you install on every server that you want to shut off when the UPS battery is getting close to empty.

Looking to buy GTX690, other multi-GPU cards, or single-slot graphics cards:

Most UPS come with a data/interface cable that plugs into your server via USB. APC does this for a lot of their consumer and enterprise models.
