Technical Deep Dive

At the core of the SMT1500CUS lies its line-interactive topology with AVR, which continuously corrects under-voltage and over-voltage conditions without switching to battery. This extends battery life while ensuring uninterrupted performance. The UPS supports a 120V output with configurable ranges between 110–125V, adapting seamlessly to fluctuating mains power.

The pure sine wave output maintains stable, clean power essential for servers, storage, and network devices, preventing data loss and downtime caused by power anomalies. Its lead-acid battery charges fully within three hours, providing reliable backup during outages, while hot-swappable RBC7 battery modules ensure minimal disruption during maintenance.

With SmartConnect Ethernet and a SmartSlot, the UPS supports both cloud monitoring and optional Network Management Cards, enabling remote oversight and integration into enterprise IT systems. Its multi-function LCD provides local control and monitoring, making it ideal for both SMB and enterprise setups.

Ideal Applications

• Small to medium business servers and storage systems
• Network closets and edge computing environments
• Point-of-sale and retail infrastructure
• Healthcare and education IT equipment requiring clean power
