Eaton 9SX 3000i Rack2U Online UPS 3000 VA 2700 W Black

With a rated capacity of 3000 VA and 2700 W, the 9SX 3000i gives you serious headroom for servers, storage arrays, switches and other rack-mounted hardware. That output lets you consolidate several devices onto a single UPS instead of spreading the load across smaller units. Always add up the power draw of your connected equipment before you buy, so the UPS runs comfortably within its rated capacity and leaves room for future additions to the rack.

The 9SX uses online topology, the design typically chosen for sensitive and business-critical equipment. Instead of switching over only when the mains fails, an online UPS continuously conditions the power it delivers to your devices. That means connected hardware is shielded from fluctuations in the incoming supply as well as from full blackouts, making this unit a solid foundation for server rooms, network cabinets and other environments where downtime is costly.

The Rack2U designation means the unit is built to mount in a standard server rack and take up two rack units. Keeping power protection inside the cabinet keeps cabling tidy, frees up floor space and puts the UPS right next to the equipment it protects. The black finish matches the look of typical rack hardware, so the 9SX blends neatly into a professional IT installation rather than sitting on the floor as a separate box.

The 9SX 3000i comes with an embedded rechargeable battery, so the essentials for backup power are built right into the unit. There's no need to source a separate battery pack just to get started. The manufacturer does not list battery capacity or runtime figures in the specifications provided, so if you need a specific runtime at a particular load, check Eaton's official documentation to match the unit to your requirements before you buy.

This UPS carries IEC/EN 62040-1 and IEC/EN 62040-2 certifications, which cover UPS safety and electromagnetic compatibility, plus UL 1778, cULus Listed, CE and EAC markings. Together they show the unit has been assessed against recognised requirements across multiple markets. For IT managers and procurement teams, a documented certification list like this makes approval and compliance checks noticeably easier when you're adding equipment to a company network or data room.

At a net weight of 26.50 kg, the 9SX 3000i is a substantial piece of hardware, which is expected for a 2700 W UPS with an embedded battery. Plan for two people when mounting it, and make sure your rack and rails are rated for the load. Once installed, the unit is designed to stay in place and quietly protect your equipment day after day as a permanent part of your infrastructure.

This UPS is a strong fit for small and mid-sized businesses, server rooms, network cabinets, labs and managed service providers that need dependable online protection inside a standard rack. If you run servers, NAS devices, firewalls or core switches and want 3000 VA of conditioned power without dedicating floor space to it, the 9SX 3000i Rack2U ticks the key boxes. It's also an easy, well-documented choice for IT resellers and system integrators.
