- Online double-conversion protection for mission-critical equipment. The APC Smart-UPS On-Line delivers continuous, clean power by converting incoming AC power to DC and then re-converting it to a pristine AC output. This design isolates sensitive hardware from disturbances such as voltage sags, surges, and outages, ensuring servers, storage, and networking gear stay online and safe even when the utility grid fluctuates.
- Six NEMA 5-15R outlets for comprehensive load protection. Six rear-facing outlets provide ample, centralized power distribution for a rack or cabinet. This configuration supports mid-size server rooms, edge locations, and network closets, allowing you to connect essential equipment—servers, switches, routers, and appliances—without overburdening a single circuit.
- Rackmount 2U design with included rail kit for effortless installation. The slim 2U profile fits standard 19-inch racks, freeing valuable floor space while delivering robust protection. The included rail kit makes mounting quick and secure, helping you deploy the UPS with minimal downtime and maximum stability.
- Network Card included for remote monitoring and management. The built-in network management capability enables you to monitor UPS health, runtime, load, and environmental conditions from anywhere on the network. You can configure alerts, perform graceful shutdowns, and integrate with your existing DCIM or monitoring tools for proactive power management.
- Extended runtime options and TAA compliance for business continuity. When extended battery runtime is needed, you can upgrade with additional battery modules to extend outage protection. The TAA-compliant design makes this UPS suitable for government, military, and other regulated procurement scenarios, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of purchasing requirements.

How to Install APC Smart-UPS On-Line 1500VA Rackmount
- Prepare your installation space: ensure a stable, vibration-free environment with adequate airflow and a dedicated circuit for the UPS and connected equipment. Verify that the rack space can accommodate a 2U unit and that the 19-inch mounting rails are secure and accessible.
- Install the rail kit: attach the provided rail kit to the UPS or directly to the rack rails according to the included instructions. Use the appropriate hardware to secure the UPS so it remains level and stable during operation and vibration is minimized.
- Mount in the rack: slide the UPS into the rack rails, align with the mounting holes, and secure with screws at the top and bottom as recommended by the rail kit. Confirm a snug fit and verify that the outlets and network interfaces are accessible for cable management.
- Connect power and loads: connect the UPS input to a dedicated 120V circuit that can supply the anticipated load. Connect critical devices to the six NEMA 5-15R outlets, distributing the load evenly and avoiding outlet over-subscription. Route cables neatly to minimize obstruction and maintain airflow.
- Configure network management and runtime: insert or configure the Network Card if necessary and connect it to your management network. Use the UPS management software to set alerts, runtime targets, and automatic shutdown policies. If you’ve added extended runtime options, verify battery packs are seated and recognized by the system, then run a test to confirm proper operation and shutdown procedures during simulated outages.
