That unit looks to be a 48v based system.  I don't have the specific 
connectors for it.  The model we use is
http://www.tripplite.com/en/products/model.cfm?txtSeriesID=934&txtModelID=3180

We don't get Tripplite snmp cards as they seem to have a high failure rate 
and the packetflux can give us the same.

For batteries, I guess you could use sealed type, but we have just been 
using the Deepcycle from the local hardware store.
for the connector, I don't remember the company off hand but can look it up
