Available in a variety of forms factors and classes (entry level, standard and extended run), there is a model for nearly every application and budget. Standard models are the most popular UPS in the world for business servers, storage and network devices and have long been considered the benchmark for reliability and manageability. 

Entry level Smart-UPS models are an economical choice for small and medium businesses looking to protect small networking devices, point-of-sale (POS) equipment and entry level servers. The extended run models accept external battery packs for long runtime to power critical servers, security and communication systems through outages that could last hours.

Manageability

• USB connectivity provides management of the UPS via a USB port (not available on all models).
• Serial connectivity provides management of the UPS via a serial port.
• Network manageable provides remote power management of the UPS over the network.
• LED status indicators quickly understand unit and power status with visual indicators.
• Audible alarms provide notification of changing utility power and UPS conditions.

Serviceability

• Resettable circuit breakers Enable a quick recovery from overload events.
• User-replaceable batteries Increase availability by allowing a trained user to perform upgrades and replacements of the batteries reducing Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)
• Hot-swappable batteries Ensure clean, uninterrupted power to protected equipment while batteries are being replaced
• Predictive failure notification provides early-warning fault analysis ensuring proactive component replacement.
