FAQs
How is SMC different from BV/BX series?
SMC delivers pure sinewave output, LCD diagnostics, and SmartConnect (IC), aimed at servers/IT. BV/BX are entry-level line-interactive models (stepped waveform) for home/office electronics.
What does “IC” mean on SMC models?
“IC” indicates APC SmartConnect support — secure, cloud-based UPS monitoring with email alerts and remote visibility.
Which form factors are available?
Tower models (SMC1000IC / SMC1500IC) and 2U rack models (SMC1000I-2UC / SMC1500I-2UC). Outlet counts differ by SKU; see datasheets.
What’s the difference between “I” and “IC” suffix models?
“I” models are the standard APC Smart-UPS with basic monitoring, while “IC” models include an integrated SmartConnect cloud management port for remote monitoring and proactive alerts. IC versions are better suited for businesses that need visibility and remote management of their UPS fleet.
Is the battery replaceable?
Yes. SMC models use genuine APC APCRBC142 batteries which are user-replaceable. We can supply and install them in the UAE.
Are the batteries user-replaceable?
Yes. SMC uses sealed lead-acid RBCs; we can supply, install and recycle old batteries across the UAE.
Will it run active-PFC servers and NAS reliably?
Yes — SMC’s pure sinewave is designed for active-PFC PSUs common in servers, workstations and NAS.
