APC SBP3000

Overview

The APC SBP3000 is a service bypass panel designed to maintain continuous power to critical equipment while servicing or replacing an APC UPS. It supports input and output voltages of 100, 120, or 230 volts and handles up to 30 amps through a hardwired three-conductor connection. This panel ensures uninterrupted power transfer between utility power and the UPS, eliminating planned downtime for servers, network switches, and other sensitive devices.

Its compact 2U rack size and included mounting brackets allow flexible installation on racks or walls, making it suitable for data centers, branch offices, and industrial control rooms. The built-in circuit breaker provides over-current protection, and the panel operates at 99 percent efficiency to minimize energy loss during normal use.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
