IBM 1500VA LCD 2U Rack Uninterruptible Power
Supply for IBM System x
IBM System x at-a-glance guide
The IBM 1500VA LCD 2U Rack uninterruptible power supply (UPS) delivers 1000 watts of power in only
2U of rack space, providing smart energy management and the highest level of power protection that
today's IT infrastructures require. With an efficiency rating of 95% or greater, the UPS helps reduce
energy usage and cooling costs, improves energy management, and optimizes workload performance
and availability for IBM System x and BladeCenter server applications. This high-density UPS packs
more real power (watts) into a space-saving 2U of rack space to protect more equipment and leaves room
for expanding IT systems.
The IBM 1500VA LCD 2U Rack UPS is shown in Figure 1.

Did You Know?
The IBM 1500VA UPS has a bright, easily customizable, and graphical LCD display that lets you
configure the device and displays important UPS status information in one of nine languages (English,
French, German, Spanish, Russian, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese).
The UPS is exceptionally easy to manage and an ideal solution for standardization across the global
enterprise.
This UPS enhances system availability with Advanced Battery Management (ABM) technology, which
significantly extends battery service life, allows individual control of receptacle groups to maximize run
time for critical devices in the event of a prolonged power outage, and provides a real-time clock that
enables precise shutdown and power up of systems in a preferred sequence, and records specific
power-related occurrences for more accurate trending and data analyses.
The IBM 1500VA UPS integrates with IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager to help improve
energy management.
