Rack-Mounted UPS Rack-Mounted UPS

Sensitive electronic equipment, such as computers, servers, medical devices, home theater systems and telephone and networking equipment, rely on a steady supply of power to operate. In the event of a power outage, a surge of voltage could damage sensitive equipment when power is restored, resulting in damage or complete loss of data. At the very least, power/surge strips should be installed to help protect devices during a power spike. For additional protection, however, consider an uninterruptible power supply, or UPS unit. A rack-mounted UPS/battery backup system is an ideal choice for protection that helps maximize space in any setting.

Features

A rack-mounted UPS system protects your valuable equipment during a power outage. UPS systems rely on stored battery power to prevent loss of power to your devices during an outage, so you can safely shut down your equipment or keep working for a few minutes to complete an important task. A UPS system also protects your devices from voltage surges that can sometimes happen once power is restored or during storms. Look for rack-mount UPS systems with a variety of ports, including USB, Ethernet, serial and data, to protect a variety of equipment from power failure. Some systems automatically shut down your devices safely in the event you are not around to do so during an outage.

Options

Once you've determined your need for a rack-mount UPS system, choose from units with a number of useful options that help eliminate worries in the event of a power outage. Some units feature audible alarms that let you know when the unit is in backup mode, so you can work to ensure your equipment is safely powered off. Some units feature useful display screens, so you can monitor voltage and battery status.

Mounting

If you have a great deal of equipment that takes up desk and shelf space, a rack-mounted unit helps you save valuable room while protecting your equipment. Our units are easily mountable and some allow either horizontal or vertical installation to suit your specific configuration.
