Battery Backup
The user-replaceable battery provides 13.1 minutes of backup at half load and 3.1 minutes of backup at full load. This gives you enough time to safely shut down your computer in the event of a power outage.
LCD Monitoring Panel
The integrated LCD panel can be used to monitor and control settings on the UPS. This gives you unprecedented control over your surge protector.
Data Line and Cable TV Protection
The surge protector features an RJ-45 surge protection connection that allows you to protect network, phone, or DSL connections from power surges. This helps to preserve the life of your modem or DSL modem and further protect your computer from surges. It also features coaxial connectors, giving you protection against surges that may come in over cable TV or modem lines.
Spaced Outlets
The UPS features two spaced outlets that are designed to accommodate devices with large "power brick" AC adapters. This lets you power and protect these devices without sacrificing another plug due to their large size.
Audible Alarms
The surge protector features an audible alarm that lets you know when there is a problem with your power. This helps to make you aware of a power outage or surge.
