Always stay online
and prevent data loss
As soon as
the power goes out, an APC Smart-UPS immediately provides emergency
power to all connected equipment. Because an APC UPS does this
automatically, you prevent unwanted failure of, for example, a PC,
server or switch. With the free APC PowerChute software you can even
have critical IT hardware shut down automatically and in a controlled
manner when the battery of the UPS is almost empty. This way you prevent
data loss, downtime and physical damage to hardware.
Safety
In addition, a Smart-UPS protects connected devices against
peak voltage caused by lightning, among other things. This APC emergency
power supply is ideally suited for (small) business use.
Battery life
You can easily read the expected battery life in the runtime
graph, which you can find between the product images. You can easily see
how long the UPS supplies emergency power at a certain load.
SmartConnect
Out-of-box remote UPS monitoring, free for a 6-month trial
period. Using the SmartConnect ethernet port, you can easily connect the
Smart-UPS to your network and easily monitor it remotely via the secure
APC SmartConnect cloud-based web portal*. In addition, the UPS can
always be monitored via this port via EcoStruxure IT Expert
(SFTWES1-DIGI).
Network Management Card
If you connect the UPS directly to your network via the
optional APC Network Management Card (AP9640/AP9641), it can easily be
managed remotely via SNMP or our remote management software Ecostruxure
IT Expert (SFTWES1-DIGI). You can also automatically send a shutdown
signal via the network to multiple physical and/or virtual servers. By
means of the APC PowerChute Network Shutdown Software associated with
the network card can even be differentiated in the shutdown moment and
the order in which this happens.
Ease of use
By means of physical buttons and an LCD screen make it possible
to set and read the basic functionalities.
Extend the lifespan
The internal battery cartridge (RBC7) can be replaced easily,
safely and independently by the user. This without having to switch off
the APC SMT1500IC or connected equipment. This way you can easily and
cheaply extend the lifespan of the APC Smart-UPS and your equipment
always remains online.
Warranty extension
The manufacturer's warranty of the SMT1500IC is 3 years, with
the exception of the battery cartridge, which has a 2-year
manufacturer's warranty. Both are extended by 3 years to 6 and 5 years
respectively with the APC service pack (WBEXTWAR3YR-SP-03).
Switched Outlet Groups: Remote reboot and phased start-up
Thanks to the Switched Outlet Groups, it is possible to
configure a phased/delayed power-on per UPS outlet group. This reduces
the peak load on the UPS and brings it closer to the constant load,
which limits oversizing of the UPS.
It is also possible to reset a group of multiple UPS outputs and the
equipment connected to them. If SmartConnect Advanced (ERWPLUS1-1Y-DIGI)
is used, a UPS with SmartConnect port + Ecostruxure IT Expert
(SFTWES1-DIGI) or a network card (ap9640) in combination with
Ecostruxure IT Expert (SFTWES1-DIGI), this is even possible at a
distance.
