IT Power Shortages can be a serious problem for a business resulting in the loss of critical data and equipment. When a power shortage occurs, it will cause a server to go down if an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is not in place. What’ more, sudden power outages can cause real damage to a machine, resulting in data corruption or, worse still, the machine being unable to restart.

Protect computers and servers from power shortages.

An Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) product is the solution. A UPS is a power protection product, trusted to safeguard critical data and equipment from power problems by supplying clean and reliable network grade power. The product has some intelligence coupled with a large battery.

How does a UPS Backup Work?

• The intelligent part monitors your main electrical power supply and communicates to the computer or computers that it protects.
• When the lights go out, it notifies the protected devices and provides emergency power from its battery.
• This emergency power is used to keep the devices running for some limited amount of time in cases of short power cuts. As the UPS power depletes, it can signal to the machine to execute a graceful shutdown. This buys time to avoid data being lost, files getting corrupted or hardware being damaged.

How to install UPS Backup

It is essential that UPS Backups are set up correctly to ensure proper protection of equipment. They must be sized depending on the type of equipment and the power-draw that would be. And most of all, the setup needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure it will work when the inevitable power cut strikes.
