Product Overview
The APC Smart-UPS SMTL1500RM3UCNC is a 1500VA / 1350W lithium-ion rackmount UPS with a pre-installed network management card, providing high-capacity power protection with an extended battery service life and enterprise SNMP monitoring for commercial AV and IT environments. This unit combines the practical advantages of lithium-ion battery technology — longer service life, lower weight, faster recharge — with full NMC functionality including SNMP v1/v2c/v3, web management, and EcoStruxure IT integration in a single 3U rackmount package. Purpose-built for enterprise AV deployments requiring both long-term battery reliability and network-integrated UPS management.
Product Description
At 1500VA / 1350W, the SMTL1500RM3UCNC protects mid-size to large commercial AV racks with the added benefits of lithium-ion battery chemistry and enterprise-grade network management. The pre-installed NMC enables SNMP integration with IT monitoring platforms, building management systems, and APC's EcoStruxure IT cloud from day one — eliminating a procurement and installation step critical in enterprise project timelines. Lithium-ion battery service life of up to 10 years substantially reduces the 5-year battery replacement cycle associated with lead-acid UPS units, lowering the total cost of ownership for long-term commercial AV installations. AV integrators and facilities managers can remotely monitor battery health, configure alert thresholds, and integrate UPS status into enterprise dashboards. The 3U chassis mounts in standard 19-inch racks with included hardware. Automatic voltage regulation continuously corrects power quality issues without battery engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this a suitable replacement for a lead-acid 1500VA NMC rackmount UPS?
- Yes. The SMTL1500RM3UCNC is a direct functional upgrade with longer battery service life, lower weight, and the same NMC functionality. The main considerations are 3U vs 2U rack height and higher initial cost, offset by reduced battery replacement costs over time.
- Can I manage this alongside lead-acid Smart-UPS units in the same NMC dashboard?
- Yes. APC EcoStruxure IT and NMC web management support mixed UPS deployments, allowing unified monitoring of both lithium-ion and lead-acid Smart-UPS units.
- What certifications does the SMTL1500RM3UCNC carry?
- APC Smart-UPS products carry UL, CE, and other applicable safety certifications. For the latest certification details, consult the APC product datasheet or contact Creation Networks.
