FAQ

What is the difference between line-interactive and double-conversion UPS?
A line-interactive UPS such as the SMX3000HV uses automatic voltage regulation to correct voltage fluctuations without switching to battery, making it highly efficient for office and networking environments. A double-conversion UPS continuously reconverts power, providing tighter regulation at higher cost.

Can the SMX3000HV be rack-mounted?
Yes. The SMX3000HV ships with rack mounting brackets and occupies 2U of rack space. It can also be used as a freestanding tower unit without modification.

Does the SMX3000HV support remote management?
Yes. The SmartSlot port accepts optional APC network management cards for SNMP and web-based remote monitoring. USB and RS-232 serial ports are also provided for local management via APC PowerChute software.
