Is this your experience?ALL CABLES SHOWN ARE CURRENTLY BEING SOLD. THE MORE EXPENSIVE UPS UNITS ARE ABLE TO USE THE SMART CABLES, BUT THE OLDER BACK-UPS UNITS ARE ONLY ABLE TO USE THE BASIC CABLES. THE TWO PORT UPS EXPANSION MODULE FOR SMART-UPS CAN ONLY USE BASIC SIGNALLING CABLES.> >Thanks! > >Tony Shadwick >OSS Solutions
