CyberPower OR1500 Overview

The Smart App LCD Series 2U Line Interactive Sine Wave UPS from CyberPower provides simulated sine wave output of 1,500 VA and 1,125 W. Along with the battery backup, it also provides surge protection for department servers, workgroup servers, workstations, network devices, and telecom installations without active PFC power supplies. It uses Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which extends battery life. AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently. This UPS system is ENERGY STAR qualified with GreenPower UPS Bypass circuitry to save on energy costs by reducing energy consumption and heat buildup.

Data Line Protection
  • Prevents power surges that travel through telephone and Ethernet lines from causing damage to electronics
Surge Protection
  • Diverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to prevent damage
Line-Interactive Topology
  • Exists when a line-interactive UPS has an autotransformer that regulates low voltages (e.g., brownouts) and over voltages (e.g., spikes) without having to switch to battery
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)
  • Provides clean, consistent AC power by automatically boosting low voltage without using battery power when incoming utility power experiences minor fluctuations
Simulated Sine Wave Output
  • Uses pulse wave modulation to generate a stepped, approximated sine wave to supply cost-effective battery backup power for equipment that does not require sine wave output
GreenPower UPS Bypass Design
  • Allows utility power to bypass the UPS transformer, when AC power is stable, which reduces energy consumption, noise, and heat build-up
Rotatable Multifunction LCD Panel
  • Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions, alerting users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime
  • Rotatable panel is easily readable whether the UPS is rack mounted or standing as a tower
PowerPanel Business Edition Software (Included)
  • Provides tools for monitoring and managing the UPS and backup power, also offers remote management functionality
ENERGY STAR
  • ENERGY STAR certified Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system
Connected Equipment Guarantee
  • CyberPower will repair or replace properly connected equipment if it is damaged by a power surge
Applications
  • Department servers, workgroup servers, workstations, network devices, and telecom installations

CyberPower OR1500 Reviews

So far so good!

By David
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2025-02-17

Haven't had any outages yet to test that it's working - but with a small rack of networking equipment and a NAS, it's barely registering a load and has worked great. Came with everything I needed to easily mount it in the rack or set upright. Instructions were plenty clear. All in all, no complaints and I'd absolutely buy another one!

Great UPS at a Great Price

Our CyberPower UPS is working great. Per its display it provides us with 72 minutes of run time. It is easy to install and use. We love it.

Can this UPS be remotely managed?

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 Anders
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).

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
