Short-depth rackmount UPS systems are designed for shallow racks, wall-mount enclosures, and space-constrained IT environments where standard-depth UPS systems will not fit. These solutions are commonly deployed in network closets, edge IT locations, AV racks, retail environments, and distributed infrastructure.
Xtreme Power offers a focused portfolio of short-depth lithium and compact power solutions engineered to deliver reliable power protection while minimizing rack depth, weight, and ongoing maintenance.
Network cabling and edge infrastructure where compact UPS protection helps maintain uptime and connectivity
What Is a Short-Depth Rackmount UPS?
A short-depth rackmount UPS typically measures 12 inches or less in depth, enabling installation in environments such as:
- Shallow wall-mount racks
- Network cabinets and IDF/MDF closets
- AV and broadcast enclosures
- Retail and restaurant IT cabinets
- Edge computing and distributed IT locations
Compared to traditional full-depth UPS systems, short-depth designs simplify installation and airflow in compact enclosures. Lithium-based platforms further reduce weight and maintenance, making them well suited for unattended and space-limited deployments.
