As a 230V international UPS tower, it protects video conferencing codecs, network switches, and control processors from blackouts, brownouts, and surges without requiring a step-down transformer. Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) corrects out-of-range voltage in real time, keeping AV equipment powered during common utility fluctuations. This UPS is well suited for any commercial AV battery backup installation where reliable, international-voltage power protection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/smx1500lcdt.jpg?v=1786678649\" alt=\"Eaton SMX1500LCDT 230V international tower UPS\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SMX1500LCDT is a line-interactive UPS with C13 outlets designed to give commercial AV integrators a dependable, all-in-one power protection solution for equipment running on 230V circuits. Its AVR circuitry regulates brownouts and overvoltages from 170V to 280V back to usable levels without switching to battery, which extends battery life and keeps connected loads running through minor utility events. The unit includes 8 IEC C13 outlets: 6 with full battery backup and surge suppression for codecs, switches, and control processors, plus 2 surge-only outlets for accessories like displays or auxiliary equipment that do not require runtime. A front-panel LCD display gives installers and facilities staff a quick read on load level, battery status, and input\/output voltage without needing separate monitoring software. In a conference room or boardroom AV rack, this tower-format UPS sits comfortably on a shelf or floor-standing rack next to switchers, DSPs, and network gear. Because it is purpose-built for 230V international AV installations, it is a practical fit for export projects, international offices, and any commercial AV deployment operating outside the 120V US market. The compact all-black cabinet keeps it visually unobtrusive in finished spaces such as huddle rooms and training rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey

Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the SMX1500LCDT compatible with 120V North American equipment?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. This unit is designed for 230V international markets with configurable 220\/230\/240V output. For 120V commercial AV installations, choose a North American SmartPro or 5PX model instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan this UPS be rack-mounted in an AV equipment rack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SMX1500LCDT ships in a tower (0U) configuration. It can be placed on a rack shelf alongside AV and networking gear but does not mount directly into rack rails like a dedicated rackmount UPS.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do I monitor this UPS from an AV control system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe included USB port allows connection to a computer or monitoring gateway for status polling and automated shutdown scripting, which integrators can use alongside AV control processors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the 6 battery-backed outlets and the 2 surge-only outlets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 6 battery-backed outlets provide runtime and surge protection for critical loads like codecs and switches. The 2 surge-only outlets protect accessories such as displays but do not draw from the battery during an outage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty does Creation Networks offer on this UPS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SMX1500LCDT carries the manufacturer's standard warranty. Contact Creation Networks for full warranty terms and registration details specific to your region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan the battery be replaced without professional service?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the unit uses two user-replaceable RBC51 battery cartridges, allowing facilities staff to perform battery replacement without returning the unit to the manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this UPS suitable for a commercial meeting space with mixed AV and IT loads?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the 8-outlet configuration lets integrators separate mission-critical AV\/IT loads on battery-backed outlets from secondary accessories on surge-only outlets within the same commercial meeting space rack.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eaton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48159973540076,"sku":"SMX1500LCDT","price":419.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/smx1500lcdt.jpg?v=1786678649","url":"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/eaton-smx1500lcdt-1500va-900w-ups-international-smart-lcd-tower-avr-230v-usb-c13","provider":"Creation Networks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
