This 48V external battery pack for rack tower UPS deployments daisy-chains with the host UPS to provide extended backup power for AV racks, data closets, and commercial network rooms. Facilities managers specifying a GSA schedule UPS battery pack for federal or institutional buildings will find this unit compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act while delivering the same extended runtime capability as Eaton's standard 48V battery pack line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/bp48v60rt3utaa.jpg?v=1786678390\" alt=\"Eaton BP48V60RT3UTAA TAA compliant 48V external battery pack\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BP48V60RT3UTAA is a 3U external battery pack that connects to compatible 48V rack\/tower UPS systems, including SMART1500 through SMART5000 series and SMX\/SU series units, via a 20-inch attached cable with a blue 175-amp male DC connector. A blue 175-amp female connector on the unit allows additional battery packs to be daisy-chained for further runtime expansion as facility power requirements grow. Because it is TAA compliant, this extended runtime battery for government AV rack projects can be specified on GSA Schedule purchases without procurement compliance concerns, a common requirement for federal buildings, courthouses, and other government facilities running commercial AV and IT infrastructure. The 3U rackmount external battery pack fits standard 19-inch rack enclosures with a minimum depth requirement, and its heavy-gauge cabling and high-current DC connectors are built for the sustained discharge demands of a fully loaded UPS during an extended outage. Typical battery lifespan is 4-6 years under normal North American operating conditions, and the unit is rated for operation between 32-104°F (0-40°C), covering the environmental range of most data closets and equipment rooms. This is a purpose-built companion battery pack for commercial and government facilities that need documented extended runtime for boardrooms, training rooms, or auditorium AV systems tied to a rack\/tower UPS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTAA Compliance\u003c\/strong\u003e — Meets Federal Trade Agreements Act requirements for GSA Schedule government procurement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDaisy-Chain Expansion\u003c\/strong\u003e — Blue 175-amp female connector supports connecting additional battery packs for further runtime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Current DC Connectors\u003c\/strong\u003e — Heavy-gauge cabling and 175-amp connectors handle sustained discharge under full UPS load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBroad UPS Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — Works with a wide range of 48V rack\/tower UPS systems from SMART1500 through SMART5000 and SMX\/SU series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3U Rackmount Form Factor\u003c\/strong\u003e — Installs into standard 19-inch rack enclosures alongside the host UPS.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDocumented Operating Range\u003c\/strong\u003e — Rated for 32-104°F operation, suitable for typical data closet and equipment room environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2-Year U.S.\/Canada Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e — Backed by a 2-year limited warranty domestically and 1-year internationally.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment space AV and IT racks requiring GSA-compliant equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoardroom and conference room UPS runtime extension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room and multi-purpose room commercial AV racks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditorium AV system backup power expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling:touch;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;min-width:480px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding:6px;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding:6px;\"\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eSystem Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e48 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eConnector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e20-inch cable, blue 175A male DC connector;
