Due to the continued decline and elimination of serial communication ports in server manufacturing and to minimize e-waste, APC™ by Schneider Electric will no longer be providing the RJ-45 to serial communication cable with the above Smart-UPS™ models

Resolution:
A serial cable can be ordered free of charge by contacting the Customer Care Centre using https://www.apc.com/us/en/support/contact-us/ .
You will need your exact model and serial number available when registering. You can find this information on the back of the UPS, a sticker on the corner of the shipping box, or via the "About" menu on the LCD screen.
