APC Smart-UPS, Line Interactive, 1500VA, Rackmount 2U, 120V, 6x NEMA 5-15R outlets, SmartConnect Port+Network Card, AVR, LCD

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a Smart-UPS from APC which is specifically the Line Interactive 750VA Rackmount 2U. It is 120V with 6x NEMA 5-15R Outlets). Here is my review of this product. The APC Smart-UPS 750VA Rackmount 2U is a reliable line-interactive uninterruptible power supply designed for small to medium server racks, network closets, or IT setups needing clean power protection in a compact form factor. I notice it gives me 5-6 minutes at full load (500W), and it is then 16 minutes at half load (250W). This I think is sufficient for graceful shutdowns. It features an Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR), hot-swappable battery, LCD display for status monitoring, and a SmartSlot for optional network card. This product earns praise from me for durability. I would describe it as solid and reliable, with flawless operation that I'm sure will last me years. It's a go-to for protecting routers, switches, firewalls, and small servers from surges, sags, and outages. Unlike other modified sine wave UPS units, this provides clean power compatible with active PFC power supplies, there is no compatibility issues with modern hardware. The 2U design fits well in space-constrained racks. The LCD interface is intuitive for local configuration, and features like AVR extend battery life by correcting minor voltage fluctuations without switching to battery. The fact that it has a Hot-swappable battery means there wouldn't be downtime for replacements, and predictive battery alerts help with planning. After installing it and testing it, I confirm that this is an excellent choice for rackmounted network equipment where pure sine wave power is essential. APC's track record for reliability makes it a worthwhile investment for avoiding downtime. I would say this is highly recommended for IT pros or home labs with critical gear.

Plug and play. Works instantaneously after plugging it in . This product works as intended and it does what it's supposed to do. The noise is very low which is great. It's also the perfect size and it's not too heavy. I recommmned this to anyone who wants to keep their products safe for local home network, desktops or servers at home.
