- SNMP/HTTP monitoring
- Virtual machine shutdown support
- Temperature probe compatible
Runtime Flexibility
Support for up to 10 external SMX120BP battery packs allows runtime extension to meet specific application requirements, while the hot-swappable battery design enables maintenance without taking connected equipment offline.
- External battery pack support
- Hot-swappable design
- Maintenance-free batteries
Deployment / Use Cases
This 3kVA UPS is engineered for protecting critical infrastructure in small to medium server rooms, network closets, and commercial IT installations. The combination of pure sine wave output and automatic voltage regulation makes it ideal for servers, storage arrays, networking equipment, and other sensitive electronics.
The rack/tower convertible design provides deployment flexibility—install it in a standard 19-inch rack using the included mounting rails or use it as a standalone tower unit. The short 19.02-inch depth is particularly valuable in space-constrained rack environments, leaving additional room for cable management behind the unit.
Server Room Protection
Provides clean power backup for 1-2 rack servers, network switches, and storage devices, with network management enabling automated shutdown procedures during extended outages.
Network Closet Installation
The compact 4U form factor fits standard network racks while the 12 outlets accommodate multiple switches, routers, and other networking equipment with pure sine wave protection.
Physical Profile
The black 4U enclosure measures 17.01" high, 7.01" wide, and 19.02" deep, with a weight of 85.19 pounds. The short-depth design is optimized for modern server racks where rear clearance is limited. The rack-mountable form includes support rails for secure 19-inch rack installation, while the tower configuration provides stable standalone operation.
