Pure sine-wave UPS for active-PFC servers

The APC SMC1000C delivers 1000 VA and 600 W of pure sine-wave output from its sealed lead-acid battery, keeping active-PFC power supplies and sensitive electronics running during an outage. Automatic voltage regulation corrects high and low mains voltage without using battery capacity. An etched-glass LCD with LED indicators shows real-time status and alarms, while USB and RJ-45 serial ports enable local management.

Suits rack or tower gear needing clean battery power

This unit fits workstations, network switches and entry-level servers that require pure sine-wave output and cloud monitoring via SmartConnect. It is not suited for loads above 600 W, for environments where only 120 V mains are unavailable, or for applications needing longer runtime than 9.2 minutes at full load or 22.5 minutes at half load.

600 W pure sine-wave rating decides compatibility

The 600 watt pure sine-wave rating is the single figure that determines whether your equipment will stay online on battery; add up the power supplies of every device you plan to protect and ensure the total stays at or below this value.

Questions about this item

How loud does the SMC1000C run and how much heat does it put out during all-day operation?

The unit uses a sealed lead-acid battery that recharges in three hours and delivers 9.2 minutes of runtime at the full 600 W load or 22.5 minutes at half load; normal operation is quiet with only the LCD and LED indicators active.

What cables or devices must I already have to connect the UPS and start protecting equipment?

Plug the NEMA 5-15P input cord into a standard 120 V wall outlet, then connect up to eight devices to the NEMA 5-15R outlets; a USB or RJ-45 serial cable is needed only if you want to use the management interface.

Will my older server with an active PFC power supply stay compatible when the SMC1000C switches to battery?

Yes, the pure sine-wave output at 120 V and 47–63 Hz maintains full compatibility with active PFC power supplies and other sensitive electronics during battery operation.
