About the Eaton 5SC 1500VA Rack-Mount UPS

The Eaton 5SC 1500VA Rackmount UPS delivers enterprise-grade power protection in a compact 2U form factor, providing 1500 VA / 1050 W of output capacity with pure sine wave conditioning on battery. This line-interactive topology ensures seamless voltage regulation across input ranges of 120V AC at both 50/60 Hz, making it ideal for data centers, server rooms, and distributed IT environments where space and reliability are equally critical.

Built on Eaton's proven platform, the 5SC1500R model features a sealed, maintenance-free lead-acid battery with Eaton Advanced Battery Management (ABM) three-stage charging technology, extending battery life and reducing operational overhead. The unit operates efficiently up to 99% in high-efficiency mode while maintaining exceptionally low acoustic output of 45 dBA at 1 meter—essential for co-located facilities and office environments. IT infrastructure teams will appreciate the dual communication interfaces (USB and RS-232) alongside the optional mSAB expansion slot for SNMP/web network management integration. With eight output receptacles (NEMA 5-15R) fed from a single NEMA 5-15P input, the UPS accommodates diverse downstream device configurations. Operating across 0°C to 40°C with full humidity tolerance (0–95% non-condensing), the 5SC1500R adapts to demanding thermal conditions without performance compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions about Eaton 5SC 1500VA Rack-Mount UPS

How long will this UPS run my load?

Runtime is load-dependent. Most enterprise UPS at 50% load deliver 8-12 minutes battery on standard internal batteries. Add external battery packs (XL / RBC modules) to extend to 30-60 minutes if you need ride-through past short utility blips.

Can it integrate with VMware vCenter / Veeam for graceful shutdown?

Yes — we ship the SNMP / Network Management Card (NMC) alongside the UPS, plus shutdown agents that integrate with VMware PowerChute, Veeam, NetApp ONTAP, and standard SNMP traps for orchestration platforms.
