Description
APC Smart-UPS SMT3000RMT2U — 3kVA 208V Rackmount UPS for PDU-Fed Data Center Environments
The SMT3000RMT2U is engineered specifically for data center rack environments powered by 208V distribution — the prevailing standard in purpose-built colocation facilities, enterprise server rooms, and high-density compute environments. Operating at 208V rather than 120V allows this 2700W UPS to draw less current for the same load, reducing strain on branch circuits and enabling more efficient power distribution across large rack deployments. The two NEMA L6-20R twist-lock outlets connect directly to 208V-capable rack PDUs, serving as a managed power conditioning and battery backup layer between the facility PDU and the rack load.
Key Features
- 208V Operation: Designed for rack environments fed by 208V power distribution units — the standard voltage in most enterprise data centers and colocation facilities — delivering higher efficiency at lower current draw than equivalent 120V deployments.
- Pure Sine Wave Output: Produces utility-grade sine wave power that high-efficiency server power supplies and storage controllers require for stable, specification-compliant operation on battery.
- NEMA L6-20R Twist-Lock Outlets: Two L6-20R outlets provide secure, vibration-resistant connections appropriate for data center environments where accidental disconnection is a critical concern.
- Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR): Actively conditions incoming 208V power without battery consumption, protecting sensitive server and storage hardware from voltage irregularities in busy facility power environments.
- SmartSlot Expansion Bay: Supports optional AP9640 or AP9641 network management cards for full SNMP monitoring, automated shutdown scripting, and integration with data center infrastructure management platforms.
- LCD Status Display: Front-panel display shows load, runtime, voltage, and battery status in real time — essential for on-site infrastructure audits in large data center environments.
- 2U Rack Footprint: Standard 2U 19-inch rack form factor fits cleanly into data center racks without modification, compatible with standard rack mounting hardware.

Ideal Applications and Industries
The SMT3000RMT2U targets data center environments where 208V is the standard distribution voltage. It is appropriate for any facility where rack PDUs operate at 208V and servers are equipped with 208V-compatible power supplies — which includes virtually all modern enterprise-class servers.
- Data Centers and Server Rooms: Provides battery backup and power conditioning for 208V-fed racks in enterprise data centers, colocation facilities, and managed hosting environments.
- Healthcare and Medical Facilities: Supports 208V-powered medical imaging servers, PACS systems, and clinical data infrastructure in hospital data centers with 208V distribution.
- Government and TAA-Compliant Deployments: Non-TAA variant; contact Questyme if TAA compliance is required for 208V deployments — TAA-compliant 208V options may be available.
- Network Closets and Branch Offices: Suitable for high-density network equipment rooms where 208V distribution has been provisioned for efficiency and capacity reasons.
- Financial Services and Banking: Protects trading infrastructure and core banking systems in purpose-built financial data centers operating on 208V distribution.
- Cloud and Managed Service Providers: Ideal for MSP and cloud provider rack environments where 208V power distribution is the operational standard across all rack positions.
Not Sure Which SMT Model Is Right for Your Environment?
Questyme's power specialists work with IT teams, facilities managers, and procurement officers to identify the right UPS for specific load profiles, runtime requirements, and rack configurations. Whether you need a single unit for a network closet or a fleet of UPS systems for a multi-site deployment, our team calculates load requirements, runtime charts, and total cost of ownership before you commit to a purchase.
