Additional Cyberpower CP685AVR UPS - 685VA/390W AVR 8-Outlet RJ11/RJ45 Compact Design EMI/RFI USB Information
|
The AVR Series CP685AVR UPS is an ideal unit for basic to mid-level computer systems. The 685AVR guards against surges, spikes, sags, and brownouts, and protects your computer system and valuable data during a power outage. Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) monitors incoming AC power and maintains a safe voltage level. This model also has full dataline protection: RJ11/RJ45 (phone, fax, Ethernet, network, DSL) and RG-6 coax (DSS, cable modem, satellite, cable TV). PowerPanel PE ¿ Power Management supplements the backup/surge protection by monitoring the status of your UPS and safely shuts down your system in event of a power outage. The standalone design allows for vertical, horizontal, or out-of-site wall mount. ¿Surge-Only¿ outlets are perfect for the addition of peripherals such as monitors, printers, scanners, iPods, or CD/DVD players. * Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) - AVR technology will stabilize the AC signal and maintain a safe voltage level without switching to battery-mode. This conserves battery life, and delivers a cleaner signal to your connected equipment. * GreenPower UPS¿ - GreenPower UPS¿ technology significantly reduces UPS energy costs by bypassing the AVR transformer when incoming AC power is clean. This not only dramatically reduces UPS utility consumption, but also reduces heat dissipation and system noise. * Ultra-Quiet UPS - The combination of an advanced ventilation design, high-end system components, and GreenPower UPS¿ technology give CyberPower UPS systems the lowest sound emissions in its class. This makes our UPS perfect for desktop applications, audio/video installations, and quiet workstation environments. * USB Connectivity - An HID-compliant USB port enables full integration with the built-in power management and auto shutdown features of Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. * PowerPanel PE ¿ Smart Management Software * 3-year Warranty

What Customers Say About Cyberpower CP685AVR UPS - 685VA/390W AVR 8-Outlet RJ11/RJ45 Compact Design EMI/RFI USB:

No software required, it just "shows up" in the energy settings of the Mac and you can tell it to shutdown after a certain length of time and so on.THE PROBLEM: This model will not allow the Mac to go to sleep. Setup on a Mac is so easy. If you unplug the USB cable from the AVR685, the Mac will then sleep, but you lose the auto shutdown functions.Good thing is, Cyberpower is replacing this unit with the 800AVR as this apparently is a known issue with the 685 and Macs.The only other thing I'd like is for the 4 battery backup plugs(the other 4 are surge protector only)to be further apart to better accommodate AC adapter bricks. In terms of what the main function of this device is (battery backup), it performs great. Had a power outage shortly after acquiring it and everything worked perfectly. I do this every night so I'm not wasting so much power, but as soon as the Mac goes to sleep, it kicks right back on.
Case in point, I have a Linux system running mythdora and every time I have a power blink, the box reboots. Unless you have a system running their power monitoring widget, the UPS function doesn't work. If I have my XP system with the widget running, the UPS functions properly during a power blink.My APC unit does not require the APC widget to be running to keep power to the outlets.Poor design, I guess they never considered someone using a UPS for something other than a Windows or Mac desktop, like a switch, cable modem, etc.[.].
I understand that the function of that is probably to alert me that it is being used and therefore will run out of power at some point. When the power goes out, the house is completely silent, except for this thing beeping every couple of minutes. I end up turning everything off as quickly as I can that is plugged into it so that I can turn the battery off to stop the beeping.However, it has saved me much work that would have otherwise been lost because it gives me ample time to save anything I'm working on and shut down my computer without feeling a need to hurry before it runs out of battery. The length that the battery lasts on this is well worth the money. I have not tried to configure it to automatically shut down my computer; I'm not sure I want to worry with that with Vista.The only negative I have for it is that, while the power is out and the battery is being used, it beeps at a regular interval that is too frequent. However, it would be more useful if it beeped once when it first has to come on and then maybe when it is at 50% power and possibly again just before shutting itself down.
Functions as advertised. Power panel is a very useful program for monitoring what is going on with the power coming into your equipment.
This unit always seemed to have an electrical/ozone smell coming from it which made me concerned and also slightly nauseous. (someone at an office supply store said was typical on these units) I ended up returning the unit.
