Know before you buy
Yes, the PR1500RT2U features a versatile, convertible design that allows you to mount it in a standard server rack or stand it upright as a tower to suit your workspace requirements.
Pure sine wave output mimics the clean power provided by a wall outlet, which is essential for sensitive electronics like high-end servers, workstations, and networking gear. It prevents the potential crashes or hardware damage that can occur when using simulated sine wave units.
AVR corrects minor power fluctuations, such as brownouts or over-voltages, without switching to battery power. This stabilizes the voltage delivered to your equipment, which extends the lifespan of your connected devices and preserves battery health.
The internal battery typically reaches a full charge in approximately 3 hours, allowing your system to be ready for the next potential power event relatively quickly.
This UPS offers a robust surge protection rating of 2430 Joules, which is designed to absorb high-energy spikes and protect your connected hardware from damaging electrical surges.
Yes, the unit includes both USB and RS-232 communication ports, allowing you to connect it to a computer for status monitoring, configuration, and automated shutdown management.
