Always stay online and prevent data lossAs soon as the power fails, an APC Smart-UPS immediately supplies emergency power to all connected equipment. Because an APC UPS does this automatically, you prevent unwanted failure of, for example, a PC, server or switch. With the included Powershute software, you can even have critical IT hardware shut down automatically and in a controlled manner. This prevents data loss, downtime and physical damage to hardware.SafetyIn addition, a Smart-UPS protects connected devices against peak voltage caused by lightning, among other things. This APC emergency power supply is ideally suited for (small) business use.Network Management CardIf you connect the UPS directly to your network via the optional APC Network Management Card (AP9640/AP9641), it can be easily managed remotely via SNMP or our remote management software Ecostruxure IT Expert (SFTWES1-DIGI). You can also automatically send a shutdown signal via the network to multiple physical and/or virtual servers. By means of the APC PowerChute Network Shutdown Software belonging to the network card, it is even possible to differentiate the shutdown moment and the order in which this happens.Extend the lifespanThe internal battery cartridge (APCRBC88) can be replaced easily, safely and independently by the user. This without having to switch off the APC SMT1500RMI1U or connected equipment. This way you can easily and cheaply extend the lifespan of the APC Smart-UPS and your equipment always remains online.Warranty extensionThe factory warranty of the SMT1500RMI1U is 3 years, with the exception of the battery cartridge, which has a factory warranty of 2 years. Both are extended by 3 years to 6 and 5 years respectively with the APC service pack (WBEXTWAR3YR-SP-03).Ease of useBy means of physical buttons and an LCD screen, it is possible to set and read out the basic functionalities. Thanks to the included 4-post rail kit, you can easily mount the UPS in a rack.Service and support by people who know your APC UPS best.How do you maximize UPS performance and fix OpEx costs?Choose Schneider Electric's 5-year EcoCare Service* (ECO1PH5YFW03):- 24/7 remote monitoring by SE's Connected Services Hub- On-site repair service (incl. replacement UPS/parts/battery and labor).- 5-year warranty- Technical support from our experts, on-site and remote- Maintenance recommendations & insights*network card required (ap9640/ap9641)This APC Smart-UPS is designed for IT professionals or network administrators to maintain business uptime and continuity.
