Rack/Tower UPS with 2700 W output

The APC Smart-UPS SMX3000RMHV2U delivers 3000 VA and 2700 W of pure sine-wave backup power in a 2U rack/tower chassis. Eight IEC C13 outlets, one IEC C19 outlet and two IEC jumpers support servers, storage arrays and network gear. An LCD panel shows real-time status and a SmartSlot accepts optional management cards.

Verify input voltage and outlet types

The unit accepts 140–280 V at 50/60 Hz via an IEC C20 inlet and ships with Schuko, BS1363A and IEC jumper cords. Confirm your facility provides a compatible 208 V or 230 V circuit and that your equipment uses IEC C13 or C19 plugs. Rack mounting requires a standard 2U space; tower use needs a stable, ventilated surface.

Sealed lead-acid battery with 6-minute runtime

At full 2700 W load the internal battery provides approximately 6 minutes of runtime and recharges in about 3 hours. Surge protection is rated at 645 joules. Typical operation produces audible fan noise and moderate heat; ensure adequate airflow around the 85 mm tall, 432 mm wide chassis. Unit weight is 101.2 kg.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy any cables or batteries separately?

The unit ships as part number 83729P with internal sealed lead-acid batteries already installed. It provides eight IEC C13 outlets, one IEC C19 outlet and two IEC jumpers for linking loads. Input uses an IEC C20 inlet; a compatible mains lead for your region (Schuko, UK BS1363A, etc.) must be sourced separately.

Should I choose this 3000 VA / 2700 W model or a lower-capacity version for my rack?

Select this model when your connected equipment draws up to 2700 W (3000 VA) and you need 230 V output from a 200–240 V or 208 V supply. It occupies 2 U of rack height (85 mm). If your load is significantly lower, a smaller VA unit will cost less and use less rack space.

What does the 6-minute runtime figure mean when the UPS is powering a full 2700 W load?

At maximum rated load of 2700 W the battery provides approximately 6 minutes of backup, giving time for graceful shutdown. Runtime extends at lighter loads. Recharging to full capacity takes about 3 hours after a discharge event.
