APC SMART-UPS 2200VA LCD RM 2U 230V

The APC Smart-UPS SMT2200RMI2U-REF is a line-interactive rackmount UPS delivering 2200 VA / 1980 W of clean, reliable power protection. Its automatic voltage regulation (AVR) corrects brownouts and overvoltages without draining the battery, while the pure sine wave output safeguards sensitive electronics. The multi-function LCD control panel provides real-time status, and the SmartSlot allows for optional network management cards. With a 2U form factor and tool-less rack mounting, it integrates seamlessly into server rooms and network closets.

Advantages

This UPS ensures business continuity by providing battery backup during outages and protecting against surges, spikes, and lightning. The line-interactive topology with AVR extends battery life by reducing unnecessary battery usage. Its high efficiency of 97% at full load lowers energy costs and heat output. The included management ports (USB and serial) enable graceful shutdown of connected systems, while the SmartSlot supports advanced monitoring via optional SNMP/Web cards. The hot-swappable battery design allows replacement without powering down connected equipment.
