2U Rackmount UPS for Critical Loads

The APC Smart-UPS SMT3000RM2U is a new 2U rackmount uninterruptible power supply delivering 2700 Watts and 2880 VA. It accepts an input range of 82 to 144 volts with an adjustable range of 75 to 154 volts at 50 or 60 Hz. Output is fixed at 120 volts with eight outlets: six NEMA 5-15R and two NEMA 5-20R. A NEMA L5-30P plug provides the input connection.

Suited for Dense Server Racks.

This unit suits administrators protecting dense 2U rack environments where 2700 Watt loads require conditioned power and graceful shutdown. The 3.4 minute battery runtime at full load covers brief outages and allows ordered shutdown via USB or Smart-Slot management cards. Buyers needing longer autonomy at 2700 Watts should look at extended-battery or higher-capacity UPS models because the internal pack recharges in three hours and cannot be hot-swapped without powering down the load.

2700 Watt Output Capacity Decides Fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the 2700 Watt rating. If the connected equipment draws more than 2700 Watts the UPS will overload and alarm continuously. Verify the total load against this figure before purchase. The RBC43 replacement battery is user-replaceable and the unit carries CSA, ENERGY STAR, FCC Part 15 Class A and UL 1778 approvals.

Questions about this item

How much audible noise and heat does the SMT3000RM2U generate when it runs continuously at 2700 W?

The unit carries ENERGY STAR certification and UL 1778 approval, indicating efficient operation, but the supplier data does not publish acoustic or thermal figures for full-load runtime.

Which input plug and circuit must already be in place for the SMT3000RM2U to connect to mains power?

It requires a NEMA L5-30P receptacle on a 30 A, 120 V branch circuit; the adjustable input window is 75–154 V at 50/60 Hz.

Will the SMT3000RM2U communicate with an older server that only has a DB-9 serial port?

The UPS provides a USB port and a Smart-Slot for optional cards; a serial connection would need a compatible Smart-Slot adapter card, which is not included.
