APC

APC

APC (American Power Conversion) is widely recognized as an industry leader in UPS systems and IT physical infrastructure, known for over 40 years of reliability and innovation. Founded in 1981 by three MIT engineers who initially focused on solar energy research, they quickly shifted to power protection, and by 1984, APC introduced its first uninterruptible power supply (a.k.a. UPS)! In 2007, APC was acquired by the French energy management and automation specialist Schneider Electric, and today it is known globally as a provider of high-quality infrastructure gear utilized across various industries. APC products are found in homes, small offices, and large data centers, safely powering computers and equipment and driving industrial manufacturing and telecommunications. Markertek Sales Engineers know what APC has to offer, and we're here to make suggestions and help you find solutions!

UPS Power Systems
APC offers a range of Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems, offering the Back-UPS, Smart-UPS, and Easy UPS series. These systems provide guaranteed protection and backup power for connected electronics during outages, surges, and voltage fluctuations. The battery backup provides immediate power during outages, allowing you to safely shut down computers or keep essential devices, such as Wi-Fi routers, running. While the surge protection guards against surges and spikes from lightning or utility issues, Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) automatically corrects minor fluctuations (sags and surges).

Power Distribution
APC Power Distribution Units (PDUs) are devices designed to ensure efficient, manageable, and reliable power delivery to multiple pieces of equipment within server racks and are essential components for data centers and IT environments. They come in various types, offering different levels of management capabilities, from basic power distribution to advanced remote monitoring, individual outlet control, and built-in circuit breakers. Most managed, metered, and switched models offer full-featured network management interfaces (Web, SNMP, Telnet) for accessing, configuring, and managing units from remote locations. They also include ports for optional external temperature and humidity sensors to maintain optimal operating conditions.

Rack Options
APC also makes a line of high-quality, feature-rich Equipment Racks called NetShelter Server Racks. They are designed to house critical IT infrastructure in various environments, from small server rooms to large data centers. NetShelter Server Racks are known for their robust construction featuring all-steel, heavy-gauge mounting rails and a focus on cooling with perforated front and rear doors. APC provides efficient cable management engineered with broad compatibility for industry-standard 19" rack equipment and with other APC products, such as Rack PDUs featuring built-in KVM switches.
