Technical Deep Dive
The SMX1000C leverages a line-interactive design with Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR), maintaining consistent 120V output even when input fluctuates between 82–143V. This minimizes battery usage and extends operational lifespan while keeping connected equipment stable.
Its pure sine wave output ensures compatibility with sensitive electronics and active PFC power supplies, reducing the risk of power anomalies. At full load (900W), the UPS provides up to 7 minutes of runtime, while at half load (450W), it extends to nearly 20 minutes, allowing sufficient time for graceful shutdowns or generator startup.
Extended runtime capability is one of its defining features, with support for additional external battery packs to significantly increase backup duration. Combined with SmartConnect Ethernet, IT managers gain real-time cloud monitoring and alerts, ensuring maximum uptime for mission-critical environments.
Ideal Applications
- Rack-mounted or tower servers and storage systems
- Network closets and branch office IT infrastructure
- Retail point-of-sale and transaction processing systems
- Healthcare, finance, and education environments requiring scalable runtime
