Product Features
Product Overview
The CyberPower PR1500RT2UC Smart App Sinewave UPS is a line-interactive uninterruptible power supply engineered for business-critical infrastructure. With 1500VA/1500W capacity and pure sine wave output, it delivers clean, stable backup power to protect servers, storage arrays, network devices, and telecommunications equipment from outages, surges, and brownouts.
This 2U rack/tower unit combines high power density with flexible deployment options, making it suitable for both data center racks and standalone tower installations. The intelligent LCD interface provides real-time status monitoring, while comprehensive management capabilities via USB, serial, SNMP, and optional cloud monitoring enable centralized power management across your IT environment.
The unit features automatic voltage regulation (AVR) to correct minor voltage fluctuations without switching to battery, extending runtime and battery life. With eight NEMA 5-15R outlets—four providing battery backup plus surge protection and four offering surge protection only—it supports mixed equipment loads typical in server rooms and network closets. The 10-foot NEMA 5-15P power cord ensures convenient connection to standard wall outlets.
Designed for reliability in demanding environments, the PR1500RT2UC operates within a temperature range of up to 104°F (40°C) and 95% humidity. Its black chassis includes front-accessible controls and status indicators, while integrated handles facilitate installation and maintenance. The unit's Energy Star certification and RoHS compliance reflect its energy efficiency and environmental responsibility.
Technical Overview
Built on a line-interactive topology with automatic voltage regulation (AVR), the PR1500RT2UC corrects minor voltage fluctuations without switching to battery, extending runtime and battery life. The unit accepts 120V AC input with a wide range of 70-155V AC and delivers regulated output between 100-125V AC at 60Hz, maintaining compatibility with sensitive electronic loads.
Four hot-swappable, sealed lead-acid batteries provide 9000mAh capacity, supporting 6.5 minutes of runtime at full load and 18.2 minutes at half load. The sine wave output ensures compatibility with active PFC power supplies found in modern servers and networking gear, while a 2430-joule surge energy rating and EMI/RFI filtering protect against electrical noise and transient spikes.
The UPS incorporates multiple communication interfaces for comprehensive management: USB for local computer connection, serial for legacy systems, SNMP/HTTP for network integration, and an EPO (Emergency Power Off) port for safety systems. Optional RMCARD205 adds relay and dry contact capabilities, while PowerPanel Business Edition software provides configuration, monitoring, and graceful shutdown functionality.
With a transfer time of 4 milliseconds, the unit ensures seamless transition to battery power during outages. The LCD display offers real-time status information including input/output voltage, battery charge level, and load percentage. Status indicators include LED lights for power on, line mode, battery mode, and fault conditions, providing at-a-glance monitoring of system health.
