Downtime for your equipment means lost opportunities and profit, which your small business can't afford. You need to be up and growing at all times, so use a Tripp Lite UPS to provide power for your computers during unexpected power outages to help keep critical information safe. We also have a broad selection of UPS and battery backup solutions as well as more standalone UPS solutions for you to browse.
Pick the Right Amount of Output
A key feature of a Tripp Lite uninterruptible power supply is the amount of output that it offers. A higher amount can power more devices, but the extra output is wasted if you're only attaching one or two computers. Consider the needs of your small business; if you only have a handful of computers to protect, a UPS with a high-end amount of output might not be the best choice. Also keep in mind the type of computer you're connecting. High-end servers require much more power than your typical desktop or laptop computer, so if your UPS is used in your server farm, consider getting a model with a higher amount of output.
Battery Life
Each UPS provides a certain amount of battery life to the devices that are connected to it. A smaller amount of battery life can be sufficient for non-critical computers that are used for simple, everyday tasks. A few minutes can be enough time for you to save your work and exit out normally, eliminating any potential data loss. On the other hand, mission-critical computers might need substantially more battery life to help ensure that important processes are maintained while the power is out. Look for a UPS with at least several hours of battery life to help ensure that you can find an alternate power supply to keep things going.
