Eaton SMART1500RXLTAA – 1440VA Rack/Tower UPS

Product Overview

The Eaton SMART1500RXLTAA is a 1440VA/1440W line-interactive sine wave UPS designed for rack-mount UPS installations protecting AV racks, network closets, and workstation clusters. As a rack-mount UPS for AV rack and line-interactive UPS for commercial AV installation projects, it keeps switches, DSPs, and control processors online through blackouts, brownouts, and line noise using eight outlets and millisecond-fast battery transfer. Its TAA compliance makes it a fit for TAA-compliant UPS for GSA projects, and extended battery modules let integrators add runtime as project needs grow.

Product Description

The SMART1500RXLTAA packs 1440W of pure sine wave output into a 2U rack/tower chassis suited to commercial-grade AV racks, network closets, and conference room equipment credenzas. Automatic voltage regulation corrects an 80V-151V input range (adjustable to 70V-153V in extended mode) without drawing on battery power, which extends battery service life on rack UPS units that see frequent brownouts. Line-interactive switching transfers to battery in milliseconds, keeping connected AV switchers, DSPs, and network gear running through short outages without a reboot or dropped session. Field-replaceable, hot-swappable VRLA battery modules allow maintenance staff to service the battery without powering down the rack, and up to four optional BP48VRXLTAA extended battery modules can be added when a longer runtime is required for a specific deployment. Automatic restart after a prolonged blackout returns the UPS to service without a technician visit, which is useful for AV racks in unattended equipment rooms or government facilities. Eight outlets and 380 joules of surge suppression give integrators room to protect multiple pieces of rack-mount AV and networking equipment from a single UPS.
