CyberPower OR1500 Overview

The OR1500LCDRT2U Smart App Intelligent LCD Equipped Uninterrupted Power Supply from CyberPower features eight battery and surge protected outlets complete with 900 watts of power. This uninterrupted power supply supports line-interactive technology to redirect the battery's DC current path from normal charging mode to supplying current when the power is lost. The integrated sealed lead-acid user replaceable battery provides up to 18 minutes of run time at half load and up to 6 minutes of run time at full load, allowing your connected peripherals to be shut down properly.

This Smart App Intelligent LCD Equipped Uninterrupted Power Supply also comes equipped with CyperPower's own PowerPanel Business Edition software. Receive up to the minute notifications via email, Windows Messenger, and XMPP alerting you to the status of your power supply. You can also avoid data loss as PowerPanel Business Edition automatically shuts down your system in the event of a power loss to help avoid data loss or damage to critical hardware components.

Intelligent LCD Diagnostic Display
The front panel LCD can be used to display detailed information on the UPS status and current power conditions. The LCD hosts 11 different diagnostics: AVR status, estimated runtime, battery capacity, load level, input & output voltage levels, output frequency, on-battery, overload, fault, and silent mode
Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR)
AVR takes irregular AC power and converts it into a consistent sine wave so sensitive electronic equipment can achieve its optimal performance. This technology will increase low voltages without switching to battery-mode. This conserves battery life, and delivers a more stable signal to your connected equipment
Reduce Energy Cost and Energy Loss
This ENERGY STAR qualified UPS system utilizes patented GreenPower UPS Bypass circuitry to save on energy costs by reducing energy consumption and heat buildup. Users can save up to 75% when compared to competitive models
Microprocessor-Based Digital Control
Digital routing is maintained through a network of integrated circuitry and discrete values used for internal system processing, which significantly increases efficiency and responsiveness
EMI/RFI
Provides shielding against electromagnetic interference and radio frequency signals. Most commonly, this is used to prevent line noise or "humming" that occurs over telephone lines or stereo electronics
USB Connectivity
An HID-compliant USB port enables full integration with built-in power management and auto shutdown features of Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X
Metal Housing
Rigid metal construction allows for placement in areas with a demanding environment
Audible Alarms
Audible tones identify when the unit is running off battery power, unit overloads, and low battery
Resettable Circuit Breaker
Convenient unit reset switch in case of an overload
Windows Compatibility
Take advantage of PowerPanel power management software that has been fully tested and is compatible with Windows 8 32/64-bit, Windows 7 32/64-bit, Windows Vista 32/64-bit, Windows XP 32/64-bit, Windows 2000, Windows 2003, Windows Server 2008 and 2012
PowerPanel Business Edition Software
• Remote management and configuration of UPS via Web Browser
• Multiple Alert Notification options: Email, Windows Messenger, and XMPP
• Supports multiple protocols: TCP/IP, UDP, SNMP, HTTP protocols
• Flexible Event Action setting
• Auto-shutdown to protect servers/workstations from data loss due to power failure
• Remote scheduling of shutdown, startup, and reboot of UPS
• Event logging to record UPS operation history
• Quick installation and user friendly interface
• Security management

Works -- No Issues

By Patrick
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2025-06-09

Unit is heavy (~50lb) and takes two people to securely mount in rack. Otherwise, it is typical of CyberPower UPS.

Does what it supposed to

By Vince

It does what it is supposed to. I will update this in a year or so. The best part was that it was nearly $150 from b&h than Amazon. I started shopping here about 15 years ago when I fell down the dslr rabbit hole. Surprisingly competitive pricing, often cheaper, and never price gouging. Whatever the msrp price is or lower, the last year or two of video cards as an example, always the msrp, not like other retailers.

Without the RMCard205, will this unit send (email or text) or display (via LCD panel) warnings of a deteriorating battery?
Asked by: Arthur
The CyberPower OR1500LCDRT2U Uninterrupted Power Supply, B&H # CYOR1500LCDQ, requires the RMCard205 for email or SMS notifications; on the LCD, if the battery is losing capacity even when you are not using battery power, it would indicate the battery is deteriorating. Generally they last between 3 and 5 years, depending on how much they are used.

Can this UPS be remotely managed?
Asked by: M
This unit is able to be managed remotely, but would require a RMCard205 installed in the expansion port on the back of the UPS to communicate over your network. Thank you for your question!

Will this be sufficient to power a 16 core 2019 Mac Pro 7,1?
Asked by: Patrick
Hello Patrick, Thank you for your question. The wattage capabilities of this UPS unit should be more than capable of supporting the computer's power needs. However, we recommend checking to see if the power supply for the computer is an efficiency rated power supply, as many of these power supplies require true sine wave output on battery to function correctly. This particular UPS unit outputs simulated sine wave power when on battery and can potentially cause compatibility issues with efficiency rated power supplies when the unit is on battery. For more information, please contact our Technical Support team at 1-877-297-6937 (press 1).

question

Will this work with Mac OS X, like the CPS1500AVR?
Asked by: Anonymous
I assume you are asking if the UPS software will shut down your MAC if the power fails? You will have to go on line to the units mfg. and read an owners manual. I bought my unit to retain power to my computers if the power failed. When I am doing a video render, I don't want my computer shut down until I am ready. My experience: It performed well during a 3 hour power outage. I would recommend this unit for its intended purpose. Walt Copeland, A/V Engineer
