Technically, recent ethernet interfaces should autodetect whether the transmit/receive pairs are reversed. I've found that they do so badly, though, especially with cheap cards; often negotiating down to lower speeds than they would if the cable was properly crossed.
There may be other reasons for the slow transfer speed, of course. I do hope you mean 3 megabytes at least, not 3 megabits!

NAME
newapc - Driver for American Power Conversion Smart Protocol UPS equipment
NOTE
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the newapc driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8).
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
newapc should recognize all recent APC models that use a serial protocol at 2400 bps. This is primarily the Smart-UPS, Matrix-UPS and
Back-UPS Pro lines. Older APC models may work better with the apcsmart driver.
The driver attempts to support every bell and whistle of the APC reporting interface, whether or not this is strictly sensible.
Some older hardware may only report a handful of variables. This is usually not a bug - they just don't support anything else.
CABLING
This driver expects to see a 940-0024C cable or a clone by default. You can switch to the 940-0095B dual-mode cable support with the
cable= definition described below.
If your 940-0024C cable is broken or missing, use this diagram to build a clone:
http://www.exploits.org/nut/library/cables/940-0024C.jpg
EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver supports the following optional settings in the ups.conf(5):
cable=940-0095B
Configure the serial port for the APC 940-0095B dual-mode cable.
sdtype=num
Use shutdown type num, according to this table:
0: soft shutdown or powerdown, depending on battery status
1: soft shutdown followed by powerdown
2: instant power off
3: power off with grace period
Modes 0 and 1 will power up the load when power returns. Modes 2 and 3 will keep the load turned off when the power returns.
BUGS
Some older APC UPS models return bogus data in the status register during a front panel test. This is usually detected and discarded, but
some other unexpected values have occasionally slipped through.
