UPS APC Smart-UPS X SMX2200HVNC

The APC Smart-UPS X SMX2200HVNC is a 2200 VA line-interactive UPS designed to keep critical IT equipment online during power interruptions. It delivers pure sine wave output, supports up to 1980 W, and includes 8× IEC 320 C13 and 2× IEC 320 C19 outlets. The unit is rack/tower convertible (2U/4U mounting options depending on installation) and includes a preinstalled Network Management Card for remote monitoring and management. The UPS supports external battery packs (SMX120BP) to extend runtime, user-replaceable internal battery cartridge (APCRBC143), and comes with PowerChute Network Shutdown software for graceful shutdown of physical and virtual servers.

Advantages

The SMX2200HVNC provides automatic, uninterrupted backup power to prevent data loss and hardware damage during outages, plus protection against peak voltages. Remote management via the preinstalled network card enables SNMP monitoring and controlled shutdowns. Expandable runtime with external batteries, user-replaceable battery cartridge, Switched Outlet Groups for phased start-up or remote reboot, and compatibility with EcoStruxure IT and other SNMP systems add operational flexibility. The UPS includes temperature sensing (AP9335T) and multiple power cords for regional compatibility.

Suitable for

• Small and medium business servers and network switches
• Virtualized environments and HCI clusters (requires PowerChute licensing for HCI/VM advanced support)
• Remote or branch office racks and tower installations
• Environments requiring remote monitoring and controlled shutdowns

How to use

Install the SMX2200HVNC in a rack or place it as a tower using the included hardware. Connect critical equipment to the C13 and C19 outlets and plug the UPS into a suitable AC supply via the provided power cord. Configure the Network Management Card through its web interface or EcoStruxure IT to enable remote monitoring and SNMP. Install PowerChute Network Shutdown on the supported systems to enable automated, graceful shutdown procedures for physical and virtual machines. If extended runtime is required, connect compatible external battery packs (SMX120BP) following the user manual instructions. Replace the internal battery cartridge (APCRBC143) when indicated by the UPS without powering down connected equipment if following the hot-swap procedure.

Usage recommendations

For virtualized and hyperconverged infrastructures, procure the appropriate PowerChute Network Shutdown license (1, 3 or 5 years) to ensure orderly VM and cluster shutdowns. Use the Switched Outlet Groups to stagger equipment start-up and reduce peak inrush loads, and disable non-critical loads during extended outages to maximize runtime for critical devices.
