APC Smart-UPS C Battery Backup & Surge Protector with SmartConnect

The APC SMC1000C is a Smart-UPS C battery backup and surge protector that keeps essential equipment running and protected when utility power fails or voltage wavers. Delivering 1,000 volt amperes and 600 watts of usable power, it supports workstations, network switches, small servers, and point-of-sale terminals that cannot afford unexpected downtime.

Eight NEMA 5-15R outlets provide pure sine wave power while on battery, so sensitive electronics continue to operate without glitches or audible noise. A 680-joule surge rating shields connected gear from spikes caused by lightning or utility events, adding another layer of defense.

With built-in SmartConnect you can view load, runtime, and battery condition from a secure cloud portal. Email and mobile alerts arrive automatically, giving IT staff or business owners time to act before a brief power issue turns into a prolonged outage.

The front LCD panel offers instant status at a glance, and Automatic Voltage Regulation quietly corrects high or low voltage without draining the battery. This feature preserves battery life and helps equipment last longer.

When the battery approaches the end of its service life, a user-replaceable cartridge slides out in minutes—no tools required. A predictive replacement reminder appears well in advance, so maintenance can be scheduled without surprises.

A tower style case fits under a desk, beside a rack, or on a shelf in the back office. Retail managers, branch offices, healthcare clinics, and home lab enthusiasts will appreciate reliable runtime paired with quiet, efficient operation. Green mode reduces energy use when conditions are stable, supporting sustainability goals and lowering operating costs.

APC backs the SMC1000C with a two-year warranty and a connected equipment protection policy up to 150,000 dollars, providing extra confidence alongside proven power protection.
