I have an old cable for the UPS with a RJ-45 plug on one end and a female

*No*. That is a manufacturer-specific *serial* cable that goes between
the UPS and a *serial* port. It just happens to have an RJ45 connector.
I would expect the RJ45 end to connect to the UPS.
You will never see ethernet on a DB9 connector.
