Eaton SMART1000RMX2UN – 1000VA Rack-Mount UPS

Product Overview

The Eaton Tripp Lite series SmartPro SMART1000RMX2UN is a 1000VA/1000W rack-mount UPS built for server room and network closet power protection where clean, uninterrupted sine wave output is required. Designed for 2U rack-mount, wall-mount, or tower installation, this line-interactive UPS provides automatic voltage regulation (AVR) and battery backup for servers, network switches, and other commercial-grade IT equipment. It is a practical fit for data center edge deployments, network closets, and small server rooms that need reliable UPS protection without a large footprint. Facilities and IT teams specifying rack-mount UPS systems for commercial deployment will find the SMART1000RMX2UN a straightforward, standards-based option.

Product Description

The SMART1000RMX2UN delivers 1000VA/1000W of pure sine wave output, matching the power characteristics of utility power so connected equipment, including servers and active network gear, runs the way the manufacturer intended. Its line-interactive topology corrects brownouts and overvoltage conditions on the fly using automatic voltage regulation, without switching to battery, which extends battery life in environments with frequent minor utility fluctuations.

Installation is flexible: the 2U chassis mounts in a standard equipment rack, on a wall, or stands as a tower unit, making it adaptable to network closets, telecom rooms, and server rooms with varying rack space. Eight NEMA 5-15R outlets are split into two switchable outlet banks, allowing IT staff to configure non-critical loads to shed automatically during extended outages while critical equipment stays powered.

A front-panel LCD with multiple selectable screens gives on-site staff immediate visibility into load level, battery status, and input/output voltage, which simplifies routine facilities checks in a data center or network closet. For remote monitoring and integration into a broader network management platform, the unit ships with a pre-installed network interface card, supporting SNMP-based monitoring alongside standard USB and RS-232 connections. An emergency power off (EPO) port supports integration with building safety systems, a requirement in many commercial and government facility deployments.

For integrators and IT managers responsible for uninterruptible power supply deployment across multiple network closets or a data center, the SMART1000RMX2UN offers a dependable, serviceable platform backed by a manufacturer warranty and available extended runtime options.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the SMART1000RMX2UN compatible with standard equipment racks?
Yes. It is a 2U rack-mount unit that fits standard 19-inch equipment racks and can also be wall-mounted or used as a freestanding tower, giving integrators flexibility across network closet and data center layouts.

Does it support remote monitoring for a network operations center?
Yes. The unit ships with a pre-installed network interface card that supports SNMP-based monitoring, so IT teams can integrate it into an existing network management platform without purchasing a separate accessory.

Can the battery be replaced without removing the UPS from the rack?
The UPS uses a user-replaceable VRLA battery designed for straightforward service, minimizing downtime during maintenance in a rack-mount installation.

What is the runtime at full load versus reduced load?
At full 1000W load, expect approximately 6 minutes of runtime; at half load, runtime extends to approximately 17 minutes. Actual runtime depends on battery condition and connected load.

What warranty coverage applies to this UPS?
The SMART1000RMX2UN carries a 2-year manufacturer warranty, extendable to 3 years with product registration.

Does the EPO port integrate with building safety systems?
Yes. The Emergency Power Off port allows this UPS to be wired into a facility's emergency power shutdown system, which is commonly required in commercial and government space deployments.

Can outlets be configured to shed non-critical loads during an outage?
Yes. The eight outlets are split into two switchable banks, letting IT staff configure non-critical equipment to power down automatically while critical devices remain on battery backup.

What support is available if I need help with installation or configuration?
Creation Networks provides pre-sale and post-sale technical support for commercial AV/IT deployments, including guidance on rack integration and network card configuration.
