Product Features
Product Overview
The APC Smart-UPS X SMX2200RMLV2U is a 2200VA line-interactive UPS engineered for reliable power protection in server rooms, network closets, and commercial IT environments. This 2U rack/tower convertible unit delivers pure sine wave output, ensuring compatibility with sensitive electronic equipment and active PFC power supplies. With 1980W of real power capacity and eight NEMA outlets, it provides substantial backup power for critical infrastructure.
The hot-swappable, maintenance-free battery supports continuous operation during battery replacement, while the included PowerChute Serial Edition software enables automated graceful shutdowns and remote management. The unit's line-interactive design incorporates Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor voltage fluctuations without draining the battery, extending runtime and reducing wear. This UPS is built for environments where power quality and uptime are non-negotiable requirements.
Featuring both serial and USB connectivity, the Smart-UPS X integrates seamlessly with network management systems. The 540-joule surge energy rating provides robust protection against voltage spikes and transients, while the user-selectable low voltage setting (100V-127V) allows optimization for specific electrical conditions. This combination of features makes it a comprehensive power protection solution for modern IT infrastructure.
Technical Overview
This Smart-UPS X model operates on 120V AC input and output, with a transfer time of 4 milliseconds to ensure seamless transition to battery power during outages. The pure sine wave output maintains clean power quality essential for servers, storage arrays, and networking gear. The unit delivers 2.20 kVA (2200VA) of apparent power capacity and 1.98 kW (1980W) of real power capacity, providing substantial load support for connected equipment.
The battery system utilizes maintenance-free, sealed, spill-proof lead-acid chemistry with hot-swappable capability. At half load, the UPS provides up to 25 minutes of runtime, while full load operation delivers 10 minutes of backup power. Typical battery recharge time is 3 hours, ensuring rapid recovery after discharge events. The unit supports connection of up to 10 external SMX120RMBP2U battery packs for extended runtime requirements.
Connectivity includes both serial and USB ports for management integration, while power distribution features eight outlets: two NEMA 5-20R and six NEMA 5-15R receptacles. The input cord measures 8 feet (2.44 meters) with an NEMA L5-30P connector. These technical specifications combine to create a UPS that balances power capacity, runtime performance, and management capabilities in a single 2U form factor.

Physical Profile
The black chassis measures 3.35 inches (85 mm) in height, 17 inches (431.80 mm) in width, and 26.26 inches (667 mm) in depth, occupying exactly 2U of standard 19-inch rack space. At 84.77 pounds (38.45 kg), the unit requires proper rack mounting and weight consideration during installation. The included rack mounting brackets, support rails, and removable feet facilitate both rack and tower configurations.
The convertible design allows deployment flexibility - it can be installed as a standalone tower using the removable support feet or integrated into rack environments using the complete rail kit. The compact 2U height maximizes power density in space-constrained rack cabinets while maintaining adequate ventilation and service access. The substantial weight reflects the robust construction and internal battery capacity, ensuring stable operation in both rack and tower orientations.
Physical dimensions are critical for deployment planning in server rooms, network closets, and equipment cabinets. The 17-inch width matches standard rack widths, while the 26.26-inch depth accommodates most rack depths with proper clearance for cable management. The black finish provides professional appearance that blends with typical IT equipment, and the form factor supports both front-to-back and side-to-side airflow patterns common in rack environments.
