APC Smart-UPS SMT1500RM1U 1U Rack Mount UPS Bundle 16GB USB 3.0

1U Rack-Mount UPS with 1.44 kVA Rating

The APC Smart-UPS SMT1500RM1U is a 1U rack-mountable battery backup delivering 1.0 kWatts and 1.44 kVA at 120V output. It protects entry-level servers, network switches and point-of-sale equipment from surges, spikes and lightning. An intuitive LCD interface shows operating mode, load, battery capacity and runtime in multiple languages. The bundle includes a 16GB USB 3.0 DataTraveler drive for additional data backup.

Upgrade from Basic Surge Protection

Moving from a simple power strip to this UPS adds automatic voltage regulation that corrects high and low voltages without using battery power. Green Mode raises operating efficiency while intelligent battery management extends cell life. The unit provides 4.8 minutes of runtime at full 1.0 kW load, giving time for graceful shutdowns. Four NEMA 5-15R outlets supply battery-backed power through a NEMA 5-15P input connection.

Suited for Small Server Racks and Network Closets

This 1U form factor fits standard racks where depth allows 26.2 inches and the 53 lb weight can be supported. It serves small-to-medium businesses and home users needing network-manageable protection with USB and serial connectivity. Buyers requiring longer runtime at full load or higher wattage capacity should evaluate larger UPS models. Environments limited to shallower cabinets or lighter weight allowances will need a different form factor.
