American Power Conversion introduces next generation of its Smart-UPS line.


American Power Conversion (APC) recently announced the next generation of its Smart-UPS line of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with the new 2200VA and 3000VA rack-mount models. The new design occupies only 2U of valuable rack space, while providing up to 2700 watts of power, making them a good solution for rack optimized servers, server blades and storage devices. The new models incorporate an advanced feature set designed to provide enhanced power conditioning and management capabilities for the protection of critical business applications, data and equipment from utility power disturbances. As new additions to APC's integrated rack, power and cooling architecture, InfraStruXure, these models offer an open and adaptable solution for network-critical physical infrastructure in server rooms, wiring closets and other small to medium-sized computing environments. Highlighted features of the next generation of Smart-UPS units include: higher power output for the increasing power requirements of today's IT racks; extended range AVR, which maintains high-quality, computer-grade power even if the utility voltage drops by 30 percent without using critical battery power; improved battery management in a temperature-compensated battery charging system with redundant overcharge protection offers longer life in adverse conditions; self-contained, hot-swappable battery modules; full PowerChute Business Edition functionality with serial or USB; and a new sleek design with improved ventilation. All units are black in color and feature an advanced 16-segment bar graph display and provide front-to-back airflow for optimum cooling in enclosed racks. In addition to these features, the new Smart-UPS rack-mount units offer improved manageability with proactive alarms, a built-in emergency power off (EPO) circuit, newly enhanced VA/watt load meter and a comprehensive array of power management accessories supported through the unit's SmartSlot. Additional accessories include APC's Network Management Card products, which provide standards-based monitoring, configuration, control and event handling for APC UPSs, and PowerChute remote shutdown for systems over a 10/100BaseT network. The new modules are integrated onto a single UPS SmartSlot card and have features like a built-in modem for dial in, out of band management and environmental management capabilities for infrastructure management. www.apcc.com
