ROSA™ UPS Battery Maintenance –
HFC Network Monitoring 
 
 
Description 
The ROSA™ Element Manager’s UPS Battery 
Maintenance Task tests the Uninterruptible Power 
Supply (UPS) batteries’ discharge at scheduled times 
and shows the status in an overview. 
 
Batteries and UPS systems are the most vulnerable 
elements in today’s HFC networks; to assure good 
operation maintenance is a requirement. The UPS 
Battery Maintenance Task automates this 
maintenance and reports the battery status in the 
ROSA management system. 
 
The task is able to work with all power supply 
systems that are monitored by means of a standard 
SCTE-HMS UPS monitoring transponder. The UPS 
transponder is currently supported, other transponder 
types can be obtained on request.
