Overview
Server racks and network closets are where this APC Smart-UPS goes, supplying pure sine wave battery power through outages and correcting voltage sags without draining the battery. A preinstalled network card handles remote monitoring and shutdown.
Pure sine output plus a network card and PowerChute shutdown let servers and virtual hosts power down cleanly during a long outage. Lead acid batteries need replacing over time, and the listing mixes tower and rack wording.
Who it's for
Small business server rooms and network closets that need remote monitoring and graceful shutdown. Home office users are better served by a compact tower UPS.
Pros and cons
- Pure sine wave output
- Network card preinstalled
- Automatic voltage regulation
- Switched outlet group
- Rack hardware not detailed
- Runtime load not stated
- SmartConnect free only as a trial
Performance notes
Line interactive design corrects small voltage swings with automatic voltage regulation and only switches to battery for larger problems, which saves battery cycles. Runtime falls as load rises, so the listed figure depends on what is plugged in. Pure sine output suits power supplies with active power factor correction.
