Eaton SMART3000RMXL2U – 3000VA Rack UPS with AVR and LCD

Product Overview

The Eaton SMART3000RMXL2U is a 3000VA/2880W line-interactive UPS built for commercial AV racks, data closets, and telecom equipment closets that require dependable, rack-mount UPS for AV rack protection. It combines automatic voltage regulation (AVR), a 2U rack/tower form factor, and pure sine wave output to keep switchers, matrix routers, and network gear running through brownouts and short outages. Designed for commercial UPS battery backup installation in AV integration projects, this unit gives system designers a compact, high-capacity power protection platform that fits standard 19-inch racks without consuming excessive rack space. It is a strong fit anywhere extended runtime UPS for data closet applications are specified alongside rack-mounted AV and networking equipment.

Product Description

The SMART3000RMXL2U delivers 3000VA/2880W of line-interactive power protection in a 2U rack/tower chassis, making it well suited for AV equipment racks, network operations centers, and commercial data closets where floor space and rack real estate are limited. Automatic voltage regulation corrects brownouts and overvoltage conditions without switching to battery, extending battery life while keeping connected AV and networking gear stable during minor utility fluctuations. The unit ships with rack-mounting hardware and tower support stands, so integrators can deploy it either rack-mounted in an AV credenza or standing as a tower unit in a server closet. Two switchable outlet load banks allow staged shutdown sequencing of non-critical devices, a feature commercial AV integrators use when configuring rack-mount UPS for AV rack setups with mixed-priority loads. USB and RS-232 ports support integration with power management software, while an available network card slot lets facilities teams add SNMP monitoring for centralized alerting across a building. The valve-regulated lead-acid battery is field-replaceable, and the unit supports external battery packs for extended runtime UPS for data closet deployments where longer ride-through time is required. This UPS is commonly specified for commercial UPS battery backup installation projects supporting AV control processors, network switches, and digital signage players in equipment racks.
