Overall, the SmartOnline 6000VA UPS combines reliable power delivery, intelligent management, and deployment flexibility to protect your critical workloads and uphold data integrity in today’s dynamic IT environments.

• Uninterruptible online power with no transfer time: Online double-conversion technology continuously converts incoming AC to DC and back to a clean, regulated AC waveform, ensuring a pristine output even during input disturbances and outages. This eliminates transfer time and minimizes risks of data loss or application crashes for mission-critical systems.
• Flexible outlet configuration for mixed loads: The unit provides two L6-20R outlets and two L6-30R outlets to accommodate a range of devices—from power-hungry servers to network appliances—without compromising protection or accessibility. The 208V input/output design aligns with common data-center and edge deployments, simplifying integration into existing power architectures.
• Remote management and monitoring: The UPS ships with a Network Card included, enabling real-time status monitoring, event logging, and graceful shutdown automation. Administrators can proactively manage the UPS from a central console, trigger alerts, and integrate with enterprise monitoring tools to streamline IT operations and uptime.
• Extended Run options for longer backups: Extend the runtime by adding additional battery modules to meet maintenance windows, recovery time objectives, or off-grid events. Extended Run provides the flexibility to tailor the UPS to your organization’s specific tolerance for power interruptions and to support long-running applications during outages.
• Versatile 3U enclosure for rack or tower deployment: The SmartOnline UPS is designed for flexible placement, occupying 3U of rack space or functioning as a stand-alone tower. This dual-form-factor capability simplifies installation in data centers, network closets, and edge locations, while preserving valuable rack real estate for other critical equipment.

how to install Eaton Tripp Lite Series SmartOnline 6000VA 5400W 208V Online Double-Conversion UPS

• Plan your installation in a cool, well-ventilated area with adequate clearance for airflow, service access, and cable management. Avoid cramped enclosures or locations with excessive heat or moisture.
• Mount the unit in a standard 19-inch rack to utilize the 3U footprint, or place it on a stable surface to function as a tower if rack space is limited.
• Connect the input power using the L6-30P plug to a dedicated 208V power source. Ensure the circuit can handle the UPS’s input current and that the feed is properly protected and grounded.
• Connect your protected equipment to the two L6-20R and two L6-30R outlets. Group critical servers and storage on essential outlets, and place networking devices and peripherals on less critical outlets as appropriate for your protection strategy.
• Install the included Network Card if it isn’t pre-installed, and connect the UPS to your network. Use the provided management software to configure notifications, shutdown policies, and SNMP or other management integrations.
• Power on the UPS and perform an initial self-test followed by a graceful shutdown test to verify that connected systems respond correctly to power events. Regularly test battery health and perform maintenance checks according to your organizational policies.
