Other contenders

  • CyberPower CP1500PFCRM2U

    Choose the 2U rack-mount CyberPower CP1500PFCRM2U for a 120V rack installation needing eight backed sockets and up to 1,000W.56

  • Eaton 9SX1500

    Choose the tower Eaton 9SX1500 when a 120V setup specifically needs online double-conversion power; it has six backed sockets and a 1,350W output limit.7

For a gaming PC or workstation you need to shut down safely

A higher-load computer setup needs a UPS whose output rating covers the combined connected load.16 The desktop CP1500AVRLCD3 suits a 120V computer setup within 900W; its battery output is simulated sine wave, so check the equipment’s waveform requirement.24

For a router, modem and network gear

Count the network devices that need battery-backed sockets and check their combined load.12 The BE600M1 gives a 120V setup five backed sockets and a 330W output limit.12

For power supplies that need pure sine-wave power

Equipment with a sine-wave requirement needs that waveform while the UPS runs on its battery.5 The 2U rack-mount CP1500PFCRM2U supplies sine-wave battery output within a 1,000W combined load limit.56

For keeping several devices on battery

Count battery-backed sockets separately from the total AC outlet count.28 All eight AC sockets on the 2U rack-mount CP1500PFCRM2U are battery-backed, for equipment within its 1,000W total limit.56
