Eaton BP48VRM2U – 48V Extended Battery Module for SmartPro UPS

Product Overview

The Eaton BP48VRM2U is an extended battery module for SmartPro UPS systems rated 750VA, 1000VA, and 1500VA, giving AV integrators and facilities teams a way to add runtime beyond a UPS's internal battery capacity. This 48V EBM for 750VA 1000VA 1500VA UPS installations is built as a 2U rack/tower module with hot-swappable battery cartridges, making it a practical fit for conference room and boardroom AV racks where extended backup power is essential but downtime for battery service is not. As a hot-swappable UPS battery module for rack environments, it supports daisy-chaining for further runtime expansion as facility needs grow.

Product Description

The BP48VRM2U connects to a range of compatible SmartPro UPS models, including the SMART750RMXL2U, SMART1000RMXL2U, and SMART1500RMXL2U series (and their networked variants), using heavy-gauge cabling with high-current 48V DC connectors. Two replacement battery cartridges (model 744-A3297) provide the module's valve-regulated lead acid (VRLA) capacity, and both are hot-swappable and user-replaceable without powering down the connected UPS or load, an important consideration for AV racks supporting always-on conferencing, digital signage, or control system equipment. The 2U rack-mount chassis requires a minimum 21-inch rack depth, so facilities teams should confirm enclosure clearance before installation, particularly in shallower conference room or huddle room AV racks. This extended runtime battery for SmartPro rackmount UPS deployment daisy-chains with additional battery packs for further capacity, giving integrators a scalable option as power requirements increase across multi-purpose rooms, training rooms, or boardrooms. Backed by a 2-year U.S./Canada warranty, the BP48VRM2U is a dependable companion module for facilities standardizing on Eaton's SmartPro UPS line for commercial AV and IT power protection.
