APC by Schneider Electric SURT008 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The APC SURT008 is a 15-foot extension cable designed to connect additional 192VDC external battery packs to compatible APC Smart-UPS RT systems. This cable provides the necessary length to strategically place battery modules for optimal system configuration and environmental control within a server rack or network closet. It is essential for expanding runtime beyond the capacity of the primary battery module, ensuring continuous power during outages for critical IT equipment. The SURT008 model specifically addresses the need for extended reach in deployments where the UPS unit and battery packs cannot be co-located.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with APC Smart-UPS RT systems that support 192VDC external battery configurations. It is intended to extend the connection from the UPS unit or an existing battery pack to an additional 192VDC external battery pack. Verify your specific Smart-UPS RT model's documentation for 192VDC external battery support. It is not compatible with other voltage configurations or different UPS product lines.

Installation Notes

The cable is 15 feet (approximately 457.2 cm) in length. Ensure the cable is routed to avoid sharp bends or pinch points that could damage the conductors. The connection points are designed for secure, tool-less engagement with compatible APC battery modules. A 38.1 cm width and 5.1 cm height are the approximate dimensions of the cable's connectors and strain relief, though the cable itself is flexible. Installation requires careful planning to ensure adequate clearance and prevent strain on the connectors.
