Overview
- The APC Smart-UPS C 1000VA (SMC1000I-2UC) is a 2U rackmount line-interactive UPS engineered to protect critical business infrastructure during mains power events. Rated at 1000VA/600W with pure sine wave output, it delivers clean, stable power to servers, switches, and network equipment in small offices and growing businesses.
SmartConnect technology enables cloud-based remote power monitoring, firmware upgrades, and predictive diagnostics via email notifications. This eliminates the need for on-site manual checks and enables proactive maintenance planning. The unit integrates seamlessly with server environments using USB and Serial connections, supporting unattended shutdown capabilities via PowerChute Business Edition.
With four IEC C13 outlets and approximately 6 minutes of runtime at full load, the Smart-UPS C provides practical protection for maintaining network connectivity and gracefully shutting down systems during extended outages. Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) handles mains voltage fluctuations between 200-240V without consuming battery power, extending battery life.
Designed for entry-level to mid-market deployments, the Smart-UPS C balances cost-effectiveness with essential monitoring and protection features demanded by Australian IT managers and business owners.

FAQs
How long will the APC Smart-UPS C 1000VA run my equipment during a power outage?
Runtime depends on the connected load. At maximum capacity (600W), the unit provides approximately 6 minutes of runtime. At lower loads (e.g. 300W), runtime extends proportionally. Actual runtime varies based on battery age and ambient temperature.
What does SmartConnect do and how does it help my business?
SmartConnect is APC's cloud-based remote monitoring service. It enables real-time UPS status visibility, predictive battery diagnostics, automatic firmware updates, and email alerts with recommended actions. This reduces on-site monitoring needs and supports proactive maintenance planning.
Can I upgrade the battery in the Smart-UPS C?
Yes. The replacement battery model is APCRBC124. Battery replacement is straightforward and can extend the unit's useful life beyond its initial warranty period.
Is the APC Smart-UPS C suitable for my server room?
Yes. The 2U rackmount form factor is designed specifically for server cabinets and network racks. It supports serial and USB connections for automated server shutdown integration, making it ideal for small to mid-sized server environments.
What happens if mains voltage fluctuates between 200V and 240V?
The Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) feature automatically compensates for input voltage variations between 200V and 240V without consuming battery power. This protects equipment and extends battery life by reducing unnecessary switching events.
How many devices can I connect to the Smart-UPS C?
The unit has 4 IEC C13 outlets plus 2 IEC jumpers, allowing connection of multiple devices. However, total connected load must not exceed 600W. A PDU (Power Distribution Unit) can be connected to expand outlet availability on compatible models.
What certifications does the Smart-UPS C hold?
The unit is certified to CE, C-Tick (Australian regulatory compliance), GOST, VDE, and UL 1778 standards, ensuring safety and compliance across global and Australian markets.
Can I remotely manage UPS shutdown across multiple units?
Yes. PowerChute Business Edition software enables unattended shutdown of servers and workstations via USB or Serial connections. SmartConnect adds cloud-based remote diagnostics and monitoring capabilities for coordinated power management.
