FAQs
How many outlets does the APC Back-UPS Pro 1200VA have?
The unit has 8 IEC C13 outlets in total. Six outlets provide full UPS power backup and surge protection, whilst two outlets offer surge protection only. This configuration allows you to prioritise critical equipment for battery backup.
How long will the battery last during a power outage?
At a 100W load, the Back-UPS Pro provides approximately one hour of runtime. Actual runtime depends on the load connected to the UPS. Higher loads will result in shorter runtime, whilst lower loads will extend it.
Can I replace the battery myself?
Yes, the APC Back-UPS Pro features a user-replaceable battery, making maintenance straightforward. Replacement batteries (APCRBC161) are readily available and can be installed without specialist tools or training.
What is Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) and why is it important?
AVR automatically corrects voltage fluctuations without relying on battery power. It protects equipment from damage caused by overvoltage and brownouts, extending the lifespan of connected devices and improving overall power quality.
Is the APC Back-UPS Pro suitable for server rooms?
Yes, it is suitable for small to medium server environments, network closets, and equipment racks that do not require rack-mount form factors. The tower design works well on shelving or the floor, and the 1200VA capacity handles typical network equipment.
What certifications does this UPS have?
The Back-UPS Pro meets A-Tick, C-Tick, CE, EAC, RCM, TISI, and GS Mark certifications, ensuring compliance with Australian and international safety and performance standards.
Can I monitor the UPS remotely using the USB ports?
The USB Type A and Type C ports enable connectivity to monitoring software, allowing you to track power status, battery health, and receive alerts. Specific software compatibility depends on your IT management infrastructure.
What is the difference between UPS-backed outlets and surge-protected outlets?
UPS-backed outlets provide both battery backup power and surge protection during outages, keeping devices running. Surge-protected outlets only protect against voltage spikes and overvoltage events but do not provide battery backup power.
