Eaton SMART5000XFMRXL – 5kVA 3U Extended-Run Sine Wave UPS

Product Overview

The Eaton SMART5000XFMRXL is an extended-run 5kVA UPS for AV rack and broadcast installations that require simultaneous 208V and 120V output from a single 3U enclosure. This 208/120V dual output UPS for AV systems is built for server, network, and telecommunications equipment where a mix of high-current and standard-voltage loads share the same rack. As a 3U rackmount UPS for broadcast equipment, it delivers full sine wave output and expandable runtime for commercial UPS battery backup installation projects where downtime carries a high operational cost.

Product Description

The SMART5000XFMRXL is a line-interactive UPS rated for 5000VA/3.75kW, accepting 208V nominal input and delivering simultaneous 208V and 120V output through eleven total receptacles. Eight switchable 5-15/20R outlets serve standard 120V AV and IT equipment, while two L6-20R and one L6-30R receptacle handle higher-current 208V loads, letting a single UPS support a mixed broadcast or data rack without a separate step-down transformer. Sine wave output maintains battery-derived power during blackouts and severe voltage fluctuations, correcting brownouts and overvoltages from 167V to 260V without drawing on the battery. The unit's extended-run design supports optional external battery packs, allowing facilities to scale runtime well beyond the internal battery capacity as load and outage-duration requirements grow. A NEMA L6-30P input connection supports either a user-supplied 30A circuit or hardwired input, and network-grade AC surge and noise suppression protects connected equipment on the incoming feed. Network management interfaces include USB, DB9 serial, and an SNMPWEBCARD slot, giving facilities teams remote visibility into a high-capacity power system supporting broadcast studio equipment, government facility racks, or large commercial AV deployments.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this UPS power both 208V and 120V equipment at the same time?

Yes. The SMART5000XFMRXL provides simultaneous 208V and 120V output across eleven receptacles, allowing mixed-voltage equipment to run from a single unit.

How is runtime extended beyond the internal battery?

The unit supports optional external battery packs, allowing facilities to add runtime as load or outage-duration requirements increase.

What remote monitoring options does this UPS support?

It includes an SNMPWEBCARD slot for an optional network management card, plus built-in USB and DB9 serial ports for unattended shutdown integration.

What input connection does this UPS require?

It uses a NEMA L6-30P plug and requires a dedicated 208V, 30A circuit, or can be hardwired by a licensed electrician.

Is this UPS suitable for broadcast studio installations?

Yes. Its combination of high capacity, dual-voltage output, and expandable runtime makes it well suited for broadcast studio racks and other high-demand commercial AV environments.

What is the warranty on this UPS?

Standard coverage is 2 years, extendable to 3 years with product registration, and includes $250,000 Ultimate Lifetime Insurance coverage in the US, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Contact Creation Networks for warranty assistance.

Can the internal batteries be serviced without powering down the connected rack?

The internal VRLA batteries are replaceable; contact Creation Networks to confirm hot-swap procedures and compatible replacement battery part numbers for your installation.
