Overview

The APC SMX2200HVNC is a line interactive uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed to protect servers, storage devices, and network equipment from power interruptions. Delivering up to 2200VA or 1980 watts of pure sine wave output, it ensures sensitive electronics continue to operate safely during outages. Its flexible 4U chassis can be configured for rack or tower placement, and it supports input and output voltages from 208 to 230 volts, making it suitable for standard data center environments.

Key features

• Line interactive design that corrects voltage drops and surges without using battery power, extending battery life and maintaining stable output.
• Convertible chassis with a short depth that fits well in shallow racks or tight spaces, while also allowing secure tower placement with included feet.
• Eight IEC C13 outlets and two IEC C19 outlets provide versatile power connections for a mix of 1U servers, switches, and other rack-mounted equipment.
• Preinstalled network management card enables remote monitoring, control, and integration with PowerChute software for automated safe shutdowns and maintenance scheduling.
• Supports external battery packs to extend runtime, keeping critical systems operational for longer periods during extended outages.
• Includes a temperature sensor to monitor rack conditions and prevent overheating without requiring additional accessories.
• Hot-swappable battery with a typical recharge time of about three hours, minimizing downtime during battery replacement.
• Comes with rack rails, detachable power cords, a USB cable, and management software for immediate deployment in branch offices or small data centers.
• Backed by a three-year warranty on the UPS and a two-year warranty on the battery, providing reliable protection for your power investment.
