CyberPower PR1000LCDRT1U Smart App Sinewave UPS (1000VA / 800W)

Overview

The CyberPower PR1000LCDRT1U is a smart uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed to provide stable and clean power to sensitive electronics. Delivering 1000 volt amps and 800 watts of true sine wave output, it ensures compatibility with devices that use Active PFC power supplies. Its compact one rack unit design allows flexible installation either horizontally in a rack or vertically on a shelf, making it suitable for network closets, small data centers, or home labs.

This UPS uses a line-interactive topology with Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor voltage fluctuations without switching to battery power, which helps extend battery life. In the event of a power outage, the hot-swappable battery provides approximately thirteen minutes of runtime at half load and three and a half minutes at full load, allowing time for safe shutdown or backup generator activation.

Key features

• Line-interactive design with Automatic Voltage Regulation stabilizes incoming power and reduces battery use during minor voltage changes
• True sine wave output supports equipment with Active PFC power supplies, ensuring reliable and clean power delivery
• Seven rear outlets with six providing battery backup and surge protection, plus one surge-only outlet for non-critical devices
• Built-in EMI and RFI filters reduce electrical noise that can affect network performance and audio/video clarity
• Multifunction LCD panel displays real-time input voltage, load level, and estimated battery runtime for quick system monitoring
• Hot-swappable, user-replaceable battery allows maintenance without interrupting connected equipment
• Optional SNMP or HTTP card slot enables remote monitoring and management through existing network platforms
