15 products
Will a UPS protect against lightning?
One front line device is the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). These are small devices equipped with high intelligence and a battery that offer protection from lightning surges, power sags, swells and blackouts, and that safeguard your investment in computing and networking equipment.
What is the difference between a surge protector and a UPS?
While a surge protector functions like a power strip, uninterruptible power sources (UPS) work like temporary back up power. UPS devices work independently, providing power when the main power supply fails. A UPS protects users as well as devices during disrupted power.
Can you use a surge protector with a UPS?
Plugging your UPS into a surge protector:
In order for your UPS to get the best power available, you should plug your UPS directly into the wall receptacle. Plugging your UPS into a surge protector may cause the UPS to go to battery often when it normally should remain online.
