Technical Deep Dive

The SMX3KRMLVNCUS leverages line-interactive topology with AVR, correcting input voltage drops and surges before they affect connected equipment. This reduces unnecessary battery use and extends operational life.

Its pure sine wave output ensures sensitive IT infrastructure—such as servers, storage, and networking gear—receives clean, stable power even during disturbances. With a maximum output of 2700 watts, it provides reliable coverage for medium to large loads.

Management is streamlined through APC SmartConnect Ethernet and a pre-installed Network Management Card 3. These tools enable cloud-enabled monitoring, environmental sensing, and remote control, giving IT teams complete visibility and control over power conditions across distributed sites.

Ideal Applications

• Enterprise server rooms and network closets
• Branch offices requiring high-availability power
• Healthcare and financial IT systems
• Edge computing and distributed IT environments
• Critical business applications needing extended runtime
