Description
APC Smart-UPS SRT192RMBP2US – 192V 8kVA/10kVA Rackmount Battery Pack for Extended Runtime & Scalable Power Protection
The APC Smart-UPS SRT192RMBP2US is a high-capacity, hot-swappable external battery pack designed to extend runtime for APC Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA and 10kVA (192V) rackmount uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. Engineered for data centers, server rooms, and critical IT environments, this scalable battery solution ensures continuous power during outages—protecting servers, storage, networking gear, and virtualized workloads from disruption, data loss, and hardware damage.
As part of APC’s trusted Smart-UPS SRT (Smart-UPS RT) series, the SRT192RMBP2US delivers enterprise-grade reliability, intelligent battery management, and seamless integration with APC’s power infrastructure—enabling IT teams to customize runtime based on operational needs without overspending on oversized UPS units.
Key Features & Specifications

- Warranty: 2-year limited warranty (batteries included)
Why Extend Runtime with the SRT192RMBP2US?
While the internal batteries of the SRT 8k/10kVA UPS provide 5–15 minutes of runtime (depending on load), this may be insufficient for:
- Graceful system shutdowns in large virtualized environments
- Riding through extended outages in areas with unstable power
- Bridging to generator startup (typically 10–30 seconds, but longer runtimes add safety margin)
By adding one or more SRT192RMBP2US packs, organizations can double, triple, or quadruple backup time—ensuring critical systems remain online long enough to: ✅ Complete automated shutdown scripts
✅ Maintain operations until utility power returns
✅ Support failover to secondary sites
Seamless Integration with Smart-UPS SRT Ecosystem
The SRT192RMBP2US is not a generic battery cabinet—it’s engineered specifically for APC’s 192V SRT platform, ensuring:
- Automatic voltage and capacity recognition by the UPS
- Accurate runtime estimation in PowerChute and management interfaces
- Balanced charging across internal and external battery strings
- Unified monitoring—no third-party drivers or complex configuration
Simply connect the battery pack to the UPS using the included high-current cable, and the system auto-detects and integrates the additional capacity.
Hot-Swappable Design for Zero-Downtime Maintenance
Unlike traditional UPS battery replacements that require downtime, the SRT192RMBP2US supports hot-swap battery modules:
- Replace aging or failed batteries while the UPS is online and powering critical loads
- Minimize risk during maintenance windows
- Extend total battery system life through modular upgrades
Note: While the pack is hot-swappable, individual battery modules inside may require brief disconnection—follow APC’s service guidelines.
Ideal Use Cases
- Enterprise server rooms running VMware, Hyper-V, or SQL clusters
- Network closets with core switches, firewalls, and storage
- Edge data centers requiring reliable, scalable backup
- Healthcare or financial systems where uptime is non-negotiable
- Hybrid cloud infrastructures needing time for cloud failover
