Frequently Asked Questions
What is the benefit of double-conversion (online) UPS topology?
Double-conversion online topology provides the highest level of power protection by continuously converting incoming AC power to DC, then back to clean AC. This isolates connected equipment from all power disturbances, ensuring a consistent and stable power supply without any transfer time during outages.
Can this APC Smart-UPS be managed remotely?
Yes, this UPS features a SmartSlot that supports an optional Network Management Card (NMC). With the NMC, IT professionals can remotely monitor the UPS status, configure settings, and initiate graceful shutdowns of connected servers and virtual machines via PowerChute Network Shutdown software.
What is the typical battery backup time for this UPS?
The APC Smart-UPS SRT 3000VA RM 120V provides approximately 3.3 minutes of backup time at full load (2700W) and extends to about 10.3 minutes at half load (1350W). This allows ample time for graceful system shutdowns or for generators to start.
What type of electrical outlets does this UPS provide?
This UPS is equipped with a NEMA L5-30P input plug for its power source. For output, it provides eight NEMA 5-20R receptacles and one NEMA L5-30R receptacle, accommodating a variety of server and networking equipment connections.
