APC Introduces Innovative Smart-UPS[R] RT 15kVA and 20kVA Models in 12U Size for Data Centers, Server Rooms and Wiring Closets.APC (1) (American Power Conversion Corporation, West Kingston, RI, www.apcc.com) The leading manufacturer of UPS systems and surge suppressors, founded in 1981 by Rodger Dowdell, Neil Rasmussen and Emanual Landsman, three electronic power engineers who had worked at MIT. Introduces Innovative Smart-UPS[R] RT 15kVA and 20kVA Models in 12U Size for Data Centers, Server Rooms and Wiring Closets APC's New Double Conversion UPS Models Offer Power Dense,Scalable Runtime for Rack or Tower Configurations APC, a global leader in integrated critical power and cooling services, today introduced its Smart-UPS RT 15kVA and 20kVA power protection models in a space-saving 12U size for rack or tower installations. This versatile double conversion online UPS offers users a flexible electrical configuration of 1:1, 3:1 or 3:3 input/output wiring that avoids rewiring of the server room or network closet (networking) network closet - The place where network hardware (other than cabling) is installed. The space should be used primarily for storage, be dry, and have electricity available. . APC expects the new models will appeal to IT and facilities professionals who manage server rooms, server closets and small to medium data centers utilizing high density and critical applications. For example, when implemented together, APC's new Smart-UPS RT products can help IT and networking managers protect increasingly popular Power over Ethernet Power over Ethernet or PoE technology describes a system to transmit electrical power, along with data, to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet network. (PoE) equipment investments against power overloads, outages, surges and spikes. Also, APC anticipates that its Smart-UPS RT models will play an important role as a major power protection source to the new, higher end Coordinates: For other places with the same name, see Billinge.

The "virtual machine" method can run different operating systems simultaneously, whereas the "OS virtualization" method runs applications for only one operating system (see virtual machine and OS trend.The new models, offering improved adaptability, availability, manageability and serviceability, are tested and certified for use within APC's InfraStruXure[R] architecture. APC's new Smart-UPS models can support applications such as single high density racks using blade servers, as well as medical imaging and diagnostics, VoIP/IP telephony, industrial or factory floor machinery, RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) A data collection technology that uses electronic tags for storing data. The tag, also known as an "electronic label," "transponder" or "code plate," is made up of an RFID chip attached to an antenna. and storage equipment. The Smart-UPS RT 15kVA and 20kVA also are application optimized and compatible with a variety of operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. and network management platforms. "With the introduction of the Smart-UPS 15kVA and 20kVA models utilizing the most advanced technology in the industry, APC continues to address its customers' needs for innovative power supplies offering excellent power quality and performance in an extremely dense form factor," said Dave Johnson Dave Johnson may refer to:
Notable highlights include:Adaptability: ● High density design in a 12U size that saves valuable space. ● Configurable as single- or three-phase system offering flexible electrical configurations. ● Convertible form factor allows for rack or tower installations. Availability: ● Hot-swappable battery and system fans ensure uptime. ● Dual mains input increases availability by allowing the UPS to connect to two separate power sources. ● Intelligent 3kW charger that automatically detects the addition of Smart-UPS battery packs and adjusts charging voltage for faster recharge time. Manageability: ● Bundled management solutions allow UPS configuration and diagnoses remotely or on-site. ● LCD display communicates UPS status for fast diagnosis and control. Serviceability: ● Field replaceable See FRU. receptacle panels allow direct connection enabling fast installation of new IT equipment.● Removable wiring tray enables fast, easy, reliable installation in any existing wiring scenario. The Smart-UPS RT family also offers a wide range of options and related products and services. Users can select additional items such as external battery enclosures, external power distribution units, NetShelter[R] racks and enclosures, service bypass panels, APC Global Services offering onsite service, and management capabilities. All units come with a remote management capability featuring APC's PowerChute monitoring and management software. In addition, centralized management of the Smart-UPS RT is simple using APC's InfraStruXure Manager as well as other server management tools such as Intel's LAN Manager (1) A network operating system from Microsoft that runs as a server application under OS/2. It supports DOS, Windows and OS/2 clients. LAN Manager was superseded by Windows NT Server, and many parts of LAN Manager are used in Windows NT and 2000. See LAN Server. and similar tools from HP, IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) , Sun, Cisco and other hardware vendors.The Smart-UPS RT 15kVA and 20kVA models are available later this month from a variety of fulfillment channels including resellers, contractors and distributors worldwide except in North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. and Japan.
