APC SCL500RM1UC 1U Rack UPS 500VA 400W 4x NEMA 5-15R SmartConnect 16GB USB 3.0 Drive

Compact Rack UPS for Edge Deployments

The APC SCL500RM1UC is a 1U rackmount uninterruptible power supply delivering 500 VA and 400 W of line-interactive pure sine wave output. Its short-depth chassis fits shallow cabinets, making it suitable for network closets, back-office racks and small edge sites where space is limited. A bundled 16 GB USB 3.0 drive is included in the package.

Suitable for Shallow Racks; Not for High-Draw Loads

This unit targets IT professionals managing wireless access points, switches or entry-level servers that operate within a 400 W envelope and use NEMA 5-15 plugs. The four NEMA 5-15R outlets and single NEMA 5-15P input match standard North American office circuits. Buyers whose equipment exceeds the rated wattage, requires different receptacle styles, or needs extended runtime beyond what the internal lithium-ion cell provides should evaluate larger-capacity units.

Lithium-Ion Battery Eliminates Routine Swaps

The integrated lithium-ion chemistry is designed to last the usable life of the UPS, removing the periodic lead-acid replacement cycle common in traditional rackmount units. This reduces scheduled maintenance visits to remote or crowded rack locations. Cloud monitoring via the SmartConnect Ethernet port adds remote visibility without extra hardware.
