Product Features
Technical Overview
This online UPS employs double conversion technology, continuously converting incoming AC power to DC and back to AC, providing complete isolation from grid anomalies. It accepts 120V AC input with a wide range of 0-160V AC and delivers stable output at 120V, 110V, or 127V AC, compatible with both 50Hz and 60Hz systems.
The unit features a 0.9 output power factor, integrated circuit breaker protection, and ENERGY STAR 2.0 certification for energy efficiency. Its sealed lead-acid battery is valve-regulated, non-spillable, and designed for reliable performance across operating temperatures from 32°F to 104°F.
This section brings together practical product details such as Plug/Connector Type, Receptacle Type, Receptacle Detail, Load Capacity (VA), so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

The rack/tower convertible design adapts to both dedicated equipment racks and standalone deployments in offices, clinics, or broadcast studios. With six outlets, it can support multiple devices like switches, routers, surveillance NVRs, and audio/video equipment simultaneously.
IT Infrastructure Protection
Ideal for server rooms, network racks, and telecommunications equipment where clean power prevents data corruption and hardware failures during brownouts or blackouts.
Critical Environment Support
Deploy in medical facilities, government offices, and security operations centers where TAA compliance and reliable backup power are mandatory for continuous operation.
Physical Profile
The compact 2U form factor occupies minimal rack space at 3.5" height, 18.9" width, and 16" depth, with a weight of 24.3 pounds. Rack-mount brackets are included for secure installation in standard 19" racks, while the sturdy tower configuration offers placement flexibility for standalone use. The unit operates reliably at elevations up to 9,842 feet.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 3.50" (88.90 mm), 18.90" (480.06 mm), 24.30 lb (11022.29 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the difference between VA and watt ratings on this UPS?
The VA (volt-ampere) rating represents the apparent power capacity, which is 1000VA for this unit. The watt rating indicates the real power capacity, which is 900W. The 0.9 power factor explains the relationship between these values. You should size your load based on the watt rating to ensure adequate runtime.
Can this UPS be used in both rack and tower configurations?
Yes, the EC1000RTXL2UNC is designed as a rack/tower convertible unit. It includes the necessary hardware for secure 2U rack mounting in standard 19" racks, but can also operate as a standalone tower for placement on shelves or under desks where rack space isn't available.
What types of equipment are compatible with the true sine wave output?
True sine wave output is essential for sensitive electronics with active power factor correction (PFC) power supplies, including servers, network switches, medical devices, and audio/video equipment. It prevents compatibility issues that can cause shutdowns or damage when using simulated sine wave UPS units with such equipment.
How many devices can I connect to this UPS simultaneously?
The unit provides six NEMA 5-15R outlets, allowing you to connect multiple devices like servers, switches, routers, or surveillance systems. The total connected load should not exceed 900 watts to maintain the specified runtime. The 10-foot power cord offers placement flexibility relative to your power source.
What management options are available for remote monitoring?
Local management is provided through the LCD display and RS-232 serial port. For network monitoring, the UPS supports SNMP (v1 and v3) and is compatible with optional network management cards. This enables remote status checks, configuration changes, and automated shutdown commands via network management software.
What is included in the 3-year warranty coverage?
The comprehensive 3-year warranty covers the entire UPS unit, including the batteries. This full-coverage warranty eliminates separate battery warranties, simplifying support. The hot-swappable battery design allows replacement without professional service in most cases, though warranty terms should be verified for specific failure scenarios.
What power capacity is listed for this UPS?
The listed power specification is 1 kVA, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
What voltage details are listed?
The listed power specification is 120 V AC, which helps position the unit for the right load level and installation role.
