Product Features
Technical Overview
This UPS employs a line-interactive topology with AVR, correcting under-voltage and over-voltage conditions without switching to battery power. The lithium-ion battery offers a 10-year design life and supports hot-swappable replacement, minimizing downtime during maintenance. Power conditioning includes an EMI/RFI noise filter and dataline protection for RJ-11 and RJ-45 connections.
Management interfaces include USB and network (RJ-45) ports for remote monitoring and control via included Power Insight 2.2 software. An emergency power off (EPO) port allows for safe system shutdown in critical situations. The unit operates reliably at temperatures up to 104°F (40°C) and meets environmental standards including RoHS, REACH, and WEEE.
This section brings together practical product details such as AVR, Plug/Connector Type, Receptacle Type, Load Capacity (VA), so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
With 3000VA/2700W capacity, this UPS delivers substantial runtime—9 minutes at full load and 20 minutes at half load—to ensure orderly shutdowns or bridge short outages. The pure sine wave output guarantees compatibility with sensitive active PFC power supplies found in modern servers and networking equipment.
Long-Life Lithium-Ion Battery
The lithium-ion battery provides a 10-year design life, reducing long-term replacement costs and maintenance frequency compared to traditional lead-acid batteries. It supports hot-swappable replacement for uninterrupted uptime.
Flexible Rack/Tower Deployment
Designed for both 2U rack-mount and tower configurations, this UPS adapts to various installation environments from data centers to office server closets without compromising performance.
Deployment / Use Cases
This UPS is engineered for applications where power quality and uptime are non-negotiable. It provides reliable backup for essential infrastructure, including virtualization hosts, network-attached storage, and telecommunications equipment, preventing data loss and hardware damage during power events.
The combination of lithium-ion longevity, remote management, and flexible installation makes it a cost-effective solution for IT managers seeking to reduce total cost of ownership while maintaining high availability standards.
Server Room & Network Closet Protection
Ideal for protecting rack-mounted servers, switches, and storage arrays in small to medium server rooms. The 2U form factor fits standard racks, while 3000VA capacity supports multiple devices with sufficient runtime for safe shutdowns.
Critical Infrastructure Support
Suitable for environments with unstable power, such as remote offices or industrial settings, where AVR and pure sine wave output ensure continuous operation of sensitive mission-critical equipment during voltage fluctuations.
Physical Profile
The black chassis measures 3.40" (86.36 mm) in height, 17.20" (436.88 mm) in width, and 24.80" (629.92 mm) in depth, conforming to standard 2U rack dimensions. Weighing 53.50 lb (24267.19 g), it is robustly constructed for stable rack-mount or tower placement. The included rack-mount kit and hardware simplify installation in server racks.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 3.40" (86.36 mm), 17.20" (436.88 mm), 24.80" (629.92 mm), 53.50 lb (24267.19 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
