APC Smart-UPS SMT2200RM2U Rackmount Uninterruptible Power Supply
Overview
The APC Smart-UPS SMT2200RM2U is a line-interactive uninterruptible power supply designed to provide battery backup and power protection for servers, storage equipment, networking devices and business IT systems. Its 2U rackmount form factor makes it suitable for compatible server racks and network cabinets.
This model provides pure sine wave output while operating on battery power and incorporates Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to help correct utility voltage fluctuations. An LCD interface provides local status information, while USB and serial connectivity support monitoring and controlled system shutdown through compatible APC software.
Key Features
- Rackmount 2U design: Fits compatible rack installations and helps consolidate power protection within an equipment cabinet.
- Pure sine wave battery output: Provides a sinusoidal waveform for compatible connected equipment during power interruptions.
- Automatic Voltage Regulation: Helps correct under-voltage and over-voltage conditions without relying exclusively on battery operation.
- LCD status monitoring: Displays UPS operating information and supports local monitoring.
- USB, serial and SmartSlot connectivity: Supports computer communication, compatible shutdown software and optional management expansion.
Technical Information
The SMT2200RM2U is the 120V North American model. APC identifies its rated capacity as 2200VA, while the official product page lists a 1920VA/1920W line-interactive pure sine wave UPS specification. Confirm the rating shown on the unit and its applicable regional datasheet before finalizing electrical load calculations.
The unit has eight output receptacles: six NEMA 5-15R and two NEMA 5-20R. Its input connection is NEMA 5-20P. This outlet and input configuration is designed for compatible 120V installations and should not be assumed suitable for 230V electrical systems.
The internal lead-acid battery is rechargeable, with a typical recharge time of approximately three hours. The battery is replaceable using the APC RBC43 replacement battery cartridge. Actual runtime depends on the connected load, battery condition and operating environment.
Applications
- Server and storage equipment protection
- Network switches, routers and network closets
- Business VoIP systems
- Retail point-of-sale equipment
- Compatible rack-mounted IT equipment
Compatibility and Installation Considerations
- Designed for compatible 120V electrical installations using a NEMA 5-20P input connection.
- Connected equipment must be compatible with the UPS's output voltage and available receptacles.
- USB and serial connections support communication with compatible computers and APC PowerChute Serial Shutdown software.
- The SmartSlot supports compatible management accessories; additional cards may be sold separately.
- The included rack mounting hardware is intended for compatible rack installation.
- Check the connected equipment's total wattage and required runtime before selecting this UPS for a deployment.

DC Supplies Product Note
Important voltage consideration: The SMT2200RM2U is a 120V model with North American NEMA receptacles. It is not interchangeable with a 230V model simply because both belong to the APC Smart-UPS family. Confirm the electrical supply, output voltage, plug types and equipment requirements before purchasing. APC lists this model as discontinued, so verify stock condition, battery condition and warranty details with the seller.
