Technical Deep Dive
The SMX1000CNC operates on a line-interactive topology with AVR, stabilizing input voltage levels before they impact connected loads. This design minimizes battery use while maintaining continuous uptime, an essential feature for protecting servers, POS systems, and networking equipment.
Equipped with a lead-acid battery system, it delivers a runtime of over 19 minutes at half load (450W) and more than 7 minutes at full load (900W), ensuring ample time for orderly shutdown or generator switchover. For businesses requiring additional protection, its extendable runtime feature supports external battery packs to meet custom backup needs.
Management is enhanced through SmartConnect Ethernet and a pre-installed Network Management Card 3, enabling real-time monitoring, proactive notifications, and integration into enterprise networks. These features provide IT managers with visibility and control from anywhere, ensuring resilience for distributed or mission-critical deployments.
Ideal Applications
- Small to mid-size server racks and storage systems
- Retail POS systems and branch office IT setups
- Healthcare and education facilities requiring reliable backup
- Distributed IT environments needing extended runtime solutions
