Product overview

Professional UPS, convertible between rack and tower: line-interactive with voltage regulation, 1500 VA / 1200 W.
Technology & protection: it switches to battery the instant the power cuts out, absorbs surges and continuously corrects voltage fluctuations without tapping into the battery.
Power: 1500 VA for 1200 W of usable output — its good power factor (0.8) leaves plenty of headroom in watts.
Runtime: approx. 17 minutes at half load (600 W), 10 minutes at 70%.
Outlets: 8 C13 outlets, all with battery backup.
Quiet operation (40 dB); convertible rack or tower form factor.
LCD display: it shows the load, battery level and remaining runtime at a glance — so you can monitor the UPS without any software.
Ideal, for example, for a server, storage or networking equipment.
Remember to check how much power your equipment draws and to choose the capacity according to the runtime you need.

Frequently asked questions about this product

How long does the SMX1500RMI2U run on battery?
17 minutes at 50% load, i.e. 600 W, and 10 minutes at 70%, i.e. 840 W. A full recharge then takes only 3 hours.
Why does this 1500 VA unit give 1200 W?
Thanks to a power factor of 0.8: 1500 × 0.8 = 1200 W actually available. A desktop UPS at 0.55 would provide only 825 for the same rated power — the usable margin is much wider.
Are all the outlets on the SMX1500RMI2U battery-backed?
Yes: eight C13 outlets and two IEC jumpers, all powered by the battery. Input is via a C14 inlet, with a 1.83 m cord.
Can the SMX1500RMI2U be installed in a rack or as a tower?
Both: a convertible chassis 89 mm high, 432 wide and 490 mm deep, weighing 24.9 kg. The rack mounting rails and removable feet are included.
Over what voltage range does the SMX1500RMI2U's AVR operate?
Between 160 and 286 V, at a frequency auto-sensed at 50 or 60 Hz ±3 Hz. As long as the mains stays within it, the battery is not used and remains fully charged for real outages.
What is in the SMX1500RMI2U box?
The rack mounting rails, removable feet for upright installation, an RS-232 cable, the installation guide and the CDs. Both installation formats are therefore covered with no accessory to order.
Is the SMX1500RMI2U quiet enough for a shared room?
Yes, it is rated at less than 40 dBA, which is low for a 1500 VA rack UPS. It can stay in an occupied room without requiring a dedicated equipment room.
Is the APC Smart-UPS X SMX1500RMI2U new and under warranty?
Yes, new equipment, with the invoice serving as the warranty document, for a period of 3 years. It delivers a pure sine wave and shows its status on a multifunction LCD console. The datasheet covers the rest.
