Product Features
Technical Overview
This online UPS operates with single-phase input, accepting a wide voltage range from 102 V AC to 150 V AC and delivering regulated 120 V AC output. The double-conversion topology continuously conditions incoming power, isolating connected loads from all common power disturbances including sags, surges, spikes, and frequency variations.
Management capabilities include an LCD/LED display for local status monitoring, plus SNMP/Web, serial, USB, and HID-compliant USB ports for remote monitoring and control. The integrated circuit breaker and hot-swappable, user-replaceable battery design enhance serviceability and uptime.
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.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.
Key Product Advantages
Lithium-Ion batteries provide a significantly longer lifecycle—up to three times that of standard VRLA batteries—reducing total cost of ownership through fewer replacements. The 2-hour recharge time minimizes downtime between outages, while the scalable runtime option via external 1U battery cabinets allows for extended backup as needs grow.
Lower Environmental Impact
With fewer battery replacements over its lifetime, this UPS reduces waste disposal and recycling demands, supporting greener IT operations.
- RoHS, REACH, and WEEE compliant
- Energy Star certified for efficiency
Enhanced Reliability
The double-conversion design and pure sine wave output ensure compatibility with sensitive active PFC servers, networking gear, and storage systems.
- Zero transfer time for seamless protection
- Wide input voltage range for brownout tolerance
Deployment / Use Cases
Ideal for protecting critical systems where power quality and uptime are non-negotiable. The 2U rack-mount footprint fits standard server cabinets, while the included support base enables stable tower placement in smaller IT closets or under-desk installations.
Common applications include server rooms, network infrastructure, edge computing nodes, and telecommunications equipment. The six NEMA 5-15R outlets provide ample connectivity for a mix of servers, switches, routers, and other essential devices.

Server Room & Data Closet
Provides runtime for graceful shutdown or continuous operation during short outages, safeguarding data integrity and hardware.
Edge Computing & Remote Sites
Compact form factor and robust environmental tolerances support deployment in distributed IT environments with limited space and cooling.
Physical Profile
The UPS measures 3.40" H x 16.90" W x 17.30" D (86.36 mm x 429.26 mm x 439.42 mm) and weighs approximately 37.50 lb (17.01 kg). The 2U rack height allows efficient use of vertical space in standard 19-inch racks. The adjustable 4-post rack mounting kit and tower support base are included for versatile installation.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 3.40" (86.36 mm), 16.90" (429.26 mm), 17.30" (439.42 mm), 37.50 lb (17009.71 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
