Symmetra

Highly available, redundant and scalable double-conversion on-line power protection

The first UPS with redundancy and scalability within a single chassis
Engineered to deliver the highest level of business continuity possible, Symmetra's modular, redundant architecture can scale power and run time as demand increases or when higher levels of availability are required. Integrated network manageability provides real time status updates of UPS health and environmental conditions. Hot-swappable, user replaceable power, battery, and intelligence modules enables low MTTR and ease of service. Symmetra's modular design provides redundant power in a single chassis for business-critical applications in server rooms and network closets.

Features & Benefits

Availability
Modular design	Provides fast serviceability and reduced maintenance requirements via self-diagnosing, field-replaceable modules
Configurable for N+1 internal redundancy	Provides high availabilty through redundancy by allowing configuration with one more Power Module than is necessary to support the connected load
Redundant Intelligence Modules	Provides higher availability to the UPS connected loads by giving redundant communication paths to critical UPS functions
Hot-swappable intelligence modules	Ensures clean, uninterrupted power to protected equipment during Intelligence Module replacement
Hot-swappable power modules	Ensures clean, uninterrupted power to protected equipment during Power Module replacement
Hot-swappable batteries	Ensures clean, uninterrupted power to protected equipment while batteries are being replaced
Power Modules connected in parallel	Enhances availability by allowing immediate, seamless recovery from isolated module failures
Battery modules connected in parallel	Delivers higher availability through redundant batteries
Automatic internal bypass	Supplies utility power to the connected loads in the event of a UPS overload condition or fault
Automatic restart of loads after UPS shutdown	Automatically starts up the connected equipment upon the return of utility power
Scalability
Scalable power capacity	Reduces UPS over-sizing costs today by allowing quick upgrades later
Scalable runtime	Allows additional run time to be quickly added as needed
Plug-and-Play external batteries	Ensures clean, uninterrupted power to the loads when adding extra runtime to the UPS
Field-replaceable power distribution panel	Ensures compatibility with equipment that has different plug types
Programmable frequency	Ensures compatibility with different input frequencies
Manageability
Manageable external batteries	Reduces preventative maintenance service needs by monitoring the health and status of the external batteries and their expected runtime
Network manageable	Provides remote management of the UPS over the network
InfraStruXure Manager Compatible	Enables centralized management via the APC InfraStruXure® Manager
LCD display	Alpha-Numeric Display which displays system parameters and alarms
Intelligent battery management	Maximizes battery performance, life, and reliability through intelligent, precision charging
SmartSlot	Customize UPS capabilities with management cards
Serviceability
Predictive failure notification	Provides early-warning fault analysis ensuring proactive component replacement
Automatic self-test	Periodic battery self-test ensures early detection of a battery that needs to be replaced
Audible alarms	Actively let you know if the unit is on battery, if the battery is low or if there is an overload condition
User-replaceable intelligence modules	Enables simple upgrades and replacements of the Intelligence Modules
User-replaceable batteries	Increases availability by allowing a trained user to perform upgrades and replacements of the batteries reducing Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)
Disconnected battery notification	Warns when a battery is not available to provide backup power
Protection
Power conditioning	Protects connected loads from surges, spikes, lightning, and other power disturbances
Frequency and voltage regulation	Gives higher application availability by correcting poor frequency and voltage conditions without using the battery
Input power factor correction	Minimizes installation costs by enabling the use of smaller generators and cabling
Generator compatible	Ensures clean, uninterrupted power to the loads in the event of an extended power outage
Cold-start capable	Provides temporary battery power when the utility power is out
Resettable circuit breakers	Enables a quick recovery from overload events
Safety-agency approved	Ensures the product has been tested and approved to work safely with the connected service provider equipment and within the specified environment. UL, FCC, CE, C-Tick approvals
