APC SMT1500I

APC Smart-UPS 1500VA

What it is

The difference between this and the units above is the shape of the power it produces. A cheap UPS approximates the mains with a stepped wave; a server power supply or an active PFC supply does not like that and may refuse it entirely. This one produces a true sine wave.

It also talks to the server over USB or the network, so when the battery runs low the server shuts itself down cleanly rather than dying mid-write.

Buy this where the thing being protected holds data. For a till or a desk, the smaller units are the right money.
