APC Smart-UPS · SMT Series Rackmount
APC Smart-UPS Rackmount — 230V, Line-Interactive, AVR, LCD
Line-interactive Smart-UPS SMT units in a 1U or 2U rackmount chassis. Thirteen SKUs cover 750VA to 3kVA: one 1U model at 1500VA and 2U models at every capacity. Each has Automatic Voltage Regulation, pure sine wave output and a multifunction LCD console, and, on the models without a pre-installed network card, APC lists graceful shutdown over serial or USB cables via PowerChute Serial Shutdown. Plain models list an available expansion slot (SmartSlot); C-suffixed models add a SmartConnect Ethernet port for cloud-based monitoring and also list the slot; NC-suffixed models come with a Network Management Card 3 pre-installed instead. APC suggests servers, storage, network closets, business VoIP and retail POS. Supplied across Dubai and the wider UAE.
Quick Glance
Key Features
1U or 2U Rackmount Bodies
Line-interactive with Automatic Voltage Regulation in a 1U body at 1500VA (SMT1500RMI1U) or a 2U body at every capacity from 750VA to 3000VA, 1500VA included. Pick the U-height your rack has spare, and check the dimensions in the spec tab, which differ by model.
Three Ways to Monitor It
Plain models list an available expansion slot (SmartSlot). C-suffixed models add a SmartConnect Ethernet port for cloud-based remote power monitoring and also list the slot. NC-suffixed models ship with a Network Management Card 3 pre-installed, with a 1-year Secure Network Management Card subscription listed as included.
Rack Mounting Rails Supplied
APC's supplied-equipment list for every model on this page includes rack mounting support rails; the 2200VA models and SMT3000RMI2UC also list rack mounting hardware. Contents differ by model, so ask us to confirm exactly what ships with yours.
Detailed Specifications
Where variants differ, every value is listed in the same order as the compare table above. Tell us the SKU and we will confirm the exact figure.
Specifications from Schneider Electric’s product data for each SKU on this page (se.com, UAE). No efficiency figure is quoted because Schneider’s published row for it could not be read unambiguously. Where a row lists several values, they are the different values across the models on this page. Ask us and we will confirm any value against the unit.
Need-to-Know
Thirteen SKUs share this page across two rack heights and three monitoring levels. Capacity, U-height and whether SmartConnect or a Network Management Card is fitted are what change between them.
- NC-suffixed models come with a Network Management Card 3 pre-installed; APC lists that card in place of the available expansion slot that plain and C-suffixed models show.
- C-suffixed models add a SmartConnect Ethernet port for cloud monitoring (APC notes feature availability varies by terms of use) and also list an available expansion slot.
- 1U is available only as SMT1500RMI1U; every other SKU, including the other 1500VA models, is 2U.
- Replacement battery differs by model: APCRBC123 (750VA), APCRBC132 (SMT1000RMI2U), APCRBC157 (SMT1000RMI2UC), APCRBC88 (SMT1500RMI1U), APCRBC159 (other 1500VA) and RBC43 (2200VA and 3000VA).
- APC lists the AP9625 2 Post Rail Kit as a compatible mounting accessory for eight SKUs (SMT750RMI2UC, SMT1000RMI2U, SMT1000RMI2UC, SMT1500RMI2U, SMT1500RMI2UC, SMT2200RMI2UC, SMT3000RMI2U, SMT3000RMI2UC); SMT1500RMI1U lists NBAC0302 and the NC models list none.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plain models list a serial port, a USB port and an available expansion slot (SmartSlot). C models add a SmartConnect Ethernet port for cloud-based remote power monitoring and also list the expansion slot. NC models list a pre-installed Network Management Card 3 with environmental monitoring in place of the available slot. Ask us to confirm the model you need.
APC lists rack mounting support rails as supplied with every model here. Only SMT1500RMI1U is 1U (44 mm high); every other SKU is 2U. Depth ranges from 406 mm to 683 mm, with the 2200VA and 3000VA models the deepest at 683 mm, so check the dimensions against your cabinet and ask us to confirm.
Plain and C-suffixed models list an available expansion slot, and APC lists Network Management Card 3 models AP9640, AP9641 and AP9643 as compatible with them. NC models already have the card pre-installed. Tell us your model and we will confirm the right card before you order.
It depends on the load you actually put on it. Tell us the watts you need to carry and we will size the capacity and confirm the runtime rather than quote the datasheet's best case.
APC lists APCRBC123 for the 750VA models, APCRBC132 for SMT1000RMI2U, APCRBC157 for SMT1000RMI2UC, APCRBC88 for SMT1500RMI1U, APCRBC159 for the other 1500VA models and RBC43 for every 2200VA and 3000VA model. Tell us your exact model and we will confirm the replacement.
