IBM 6000VA LCD 4U Rack UPS
IBM System x at-a-glance guide
The IBM 6000VA LCD 4U Rack uninterruptible power supply (UPS) delivers 5600 watts of power in only
4U 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 4U of rack space to protect more equipment and leaves room
for expanding IT systems. The IBM 6000VA LCD 4U Rack UPS is shown in Figure 1.

Did You Know?
The IBM 6000VA 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. This
technology 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; 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 6000VA UPS integrates with IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager to help improve
energy management.
