Eaton SMART3000RM2UN – 3kVA 2U Rack/Tower UPS

Product Overview

The Eaton SMART3000RM2UN is a high-capacity rackmount UPS built for AV racks, server rooms, and telecommunications closets that carry heavier equipment loads than a standard 1500VA unit can support. Rated at 3000VA, this 3000VA rackmount UPS for AV rack installations delivers pure sine wave output in both line and battery modes, protecting sensitive processors, amplifiers, and network gear from clean power interruptions. Its 2U line-interactive UPS with LCD design makes it a strong fit for broadcast studios, large boardrooms, and auditoriums running substantial AV equipment loads that need dependable, unity-power-factor backup.

Product Description

The SMART3000RM2UN is a line-interactive UPS with built-in automatic voltage regulation that corrects both slight under-voltages and severe brownout conditions using two separate levels of voltage boost, a configuration suited to buildings with historically poor utility power quality. Its seven-outlet configuration includes one L5-30R outlet for high-current equipment and six 5-20R outlets split across two independently switchable load banks, giving AV integrators the flexibility to shed non-critical loads during an outage while keeping essential broadcast or conferencing equipment running. The interactive LCD interface reports operating mode plus detailed UPS and site-power data, and also enables on-unit setup and configuration changes without external software. Transfer from line to battery power happens within milliseconds, and the unit operates at 98 percent line-mode efficiency, reducing heat generation and operating cost in equipment rooms with limited cooling. Communication options include a USB port, DB9 serial port, and a pre-installed WEBCARDLX network management card for remote monitoring across a facility's UPS fleet. The 72VDC VRLA battery set is hot-swappable and user-replaceable, minimizing downtime during battery service on equipment supporting mission-critical broadcast or commercial meeting space systems.
