Rack-mount 500 VA UPS

The APC SC500RM1U is a line-interactive uninterruptible power supply rated at 500 VA for 120 V environments. It fits a standard 1U rack space and provides four NEMA 5-15R outlets for connected equipment. This unit suits small servers, network switches or workstations that need basic battery backup in a compact rack form factor. It is not suited for loads that exceed the 500 VA rating or for installations that require on-line double-conversion topology.

Front-panel status and replaceable battery

The front panel includes LED indicators for on-line, on-battery, replace-battery and overload conditions so operators can assess status at a glance. Four rear outlets accept standard North American plugs without adapters. The battery cartridge is user-replaceable, allowing service without removing the UPS from the rack. No network management card or additional communication ports are described in the supplied data.

Line-interactive regulation and safety marks

Line-interactive topology corrects minor voltage fluctuations without switching to battery, which conserves runtime and reduces acoustic noise during normal operation. The unit complies with FCC Part 15 Class B emission limits and carries UL 1778 and cTUVus safety certifications. Power draw in standby is low, and fan activity remains minimal until battery operation or heavy load conditions occur.
