Differences between APC UPS tower models and rack models
The APC UPS Tower models and the APC UPS Rack models are both part of Schneider Electric's extensive portfolio of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, but offer different form factors and deployment options. Here are the main differences between the two types:
| Tower Models | Rack Models | |||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shape and assembly | Tower models are designed as free-standing units and are ideal for office environments or areas where there is no rack for the equipment. The tower model allows for flexible placement. | Rack models are specially designed for mounting in server racks. They optimise space in data centres or server rooms by allowing them to be inserted into standardised rack systems. They are ideal for environments where multiple devices are centralised and organised in a uniform format. | ||||||||||||||||
| Area of application and target group | Often favoured by small to medium-sized companies or home office set-ups that want to protect individual workstations, network equipment or smaller servers. | Preferred in larger corporate environments or data centres where multiple devices are organised in a rack. They are ideal for centralised UPS backup of multiple servers or network devices. | ||||||||||||||||
| Expandability and scalability |
Depending on the specific model, some tower units can be expanded to accommodate additional battery modules, but scalability may be more limited compared to rack units. | They typically offer high scalability and are designed to integrate seamlessly into complex data centre environments with multiple rack units. | ||||||||||||||||
| Management and connectivity |
Specific features may vary by model, but in general, both tower and rack models offer similar features in terms of monitoring and management. | |||||||||||||||||
The decision between tower and rack models depends mainly on the specific requirements of your IT infrastructure, available space and preferences in terms of organisation and aesthetics. Both offer the reliable protection that APC UPSs are known for.
