Vertiv 18381 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Vertiv Liebert SN Sensor Adapter, model 18381, is a passive adapter designed to convert the RJ45 connector found on Vertiv SN environmental sensors to an RJ12 connector. This is critical for integrating sensors that use the standard SN sensor interface into monitoring systems or equipment that specifically requires an RJ12 input. It ensures compatibility where direct RJ45 connections are not supported, streamlining sensor deployment in data centers and IT closets.

Compatibility

This adapter is specifically designed for use with Vertiv SN environmental sensors that terminate in an RJ45 plug. It facilitates connection to Vertiv monitoring units or other equipment that features an RJ12 sensor input port. It is not a powered device and does not alter the sensor's signal; it only changes the physical connector type. Verify your monitoring system's input port is RJ12 before purchase.

Installation Notes

Installation involves simply plugging the RJ45 end of the SN sensor into the adapter and then plugging the adapter's RJ12 connector into the compatible port on your monitoring equipment. No tools or configuration are required. The adapter is designed for indoor use within controlled environments.
