The CyberPower EC550G Uninterruptible Power Supplyfrom CyberPower EC550G Uninterruptible Power Supplycomes equipped with eight electrical outlets. Three of these outlets are eco controlled outlets designed to conserve energy by cutting power to USB connected peripherals when that computer is in sleep mode. This UPS also comes equipped with four battery- and surge-protected outlets and four surge-only protected outlets providing both surge protection and battery backup in the case of a power interruption.

The included sealed lead-acid battery comes with a typical recharge time of 8 hours and is capable of an 2.4 minute run time at 300W and 7.35 minutes at 150W. The integrated surge protected outlets are capable of absorbing up to 526 Joules keeping your attached electrical devices safe from harmful spikes in electrical current. Also included with this UPS is CyberPower's own PowerPanel Personal Edition software. When this software is used with a compatible Windows-based PC, you can instruct the PowerPanel software to save open files, set the machine to hibernate mode, and eventually safely shut down the PC when the backup battery is depleted.

The user selectable ECO mode removes power to computer peripherals connected to the ECO designated outlets when the UPS detects the computer, connected to the UPS via USB, is turned off or in sleep mode. This results in additional cost savings by eliminating the power consumption of idle devices.

This ENERGY STAR qualified UPS system utilizes CyberPower's own patented GreenPower UPS High Efficiency design to reduce power consumption by increasing power efficiency to greater than 98% to save costs and reduce emissions.

This uninterruptable power supply comes with reduced sound emissions.

Shielding against electromagnetic interference and radio frequency signals prevents line noise ("humming") over telephone lines or audio systems.

Widely-spaced outlets accommodate large transformer-based plugs without compromising the utility of other outlets.

The integrated HID compliant USB port enables full integration with built-in power management and auto shutdown features of Windows, Linux, and Mac OS.

Compact size for mounting horizontal or vertical.

LED status lights indicate Power-On and ECO on/off.

Distinctive tones identify when the unit is running on battery power, if it is overloaded, or when the battery is low.

The user may use this convenient unit reset switch in case of an overload.

In the event of a power outage, PowerPanel Personal Edition saves open files and "hibernates" the PC to increase the run-time on the UPS unit. PowerPanel is easily installed on any Windows-based PC and uses minimal system resources. Diagnostic screens display the status of the UPS, including silent operation mode, configurable system notifications, automatic self tests, adjustable high/low voltage warnings, event/data logging, and scheduled shutdowns.

The included PowerPanel power management software has been fully tested and is compatible with Windows 8 32/64, Windows 7 32/64, Vista 32/64, XP 32/64, 2000, 2003, Server 2008, and Server 2012.
