About uninterruptible power supplies
An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is a device that acts as a defensive barrier between electronic
equipment and incoming power problems. It conditions, regulates, and filters out power disturbances to
ensure a clean power source for IT equipment. A UPS also provides battery backup in the event of a
power failure.
In today’s high availability server environments, unplanned power outages or line quality irregularities can
have a considerable financial impact on businesses of all sizes. The typical utility power is 99.9%
available, but that means that there can be almost 9 hours of downtime a year, not to mention brown-outs
and other power quality problems.
Selecting the right IBM UPS can help protect against these potentially costly incidents.
