120V 2880VA Tower UPS
The APC Smart-UPS SMT3000 is a 120-volt tower UPS rated at 2880 VA and 2700 W. It connects via a NEMA L5-30P input plug and provides ten output receptacles. USB communication and management software are included for monitoring and controlled shutdown.
Suited for 30 A branch circuits
This unit suits installations that can supply a 30 A, 120 V circuit and need both 5-15R and 5-20R outlets. It is not for sites limited to 15 A or 20 A service, nor for distributions that require a different input plug or output voltage.
NEMA L5-30P input requirement
The decisive specification is the NEMA L5-30P input connection, which demands a dedicated 30 A, 120 V branch circuit. If that receptacle is not available, the UPS cannot be installed without electrical work.

Questions about this item
What size rack or shelf space does the 7.70" x 21.42" x 17.00" tower require?
The unit measures 7.70 inches high, 21.42 inches wide and 17.00 inches deep, so allow at least that footprint plus cable clearance behind the NEMA L5-30P inlet.
Which cable do I connect first when setting up the USB management link?
Plug the supplied USB cable into the UPS USB port and the PC before launching the management software; the RS-232 signalling cable is optional and not required for USB monitoring.
How often should I plan to swap the RBC55 battery cartridge?
Expect to replace the RBC55 every three to five years; after a full discharge the pack recharges in 3 hours, and the audible low-battery alarm gives configurable warning before shutdown.
