Introduction

The Dellt Tower uninterruptible power system (UPS) protects your sensitive electronic equipment from basic power problems such as power failures, power sags, power surges, brownouts, and line noise.

Power outages can occur when you least expect them and power quality can be erratic. These power problems have the potential to corrupt critical data, destroy unsaved work sessions, and damage hardware — causing hours of lost productivity and expensive repairs.

With the Dell Tower UPS, you can safely eliminate the effects of power disturbances and guard the integrity of your equipment. The UPS's flexibility to handle an array of network devices makes it the perfect choice to protect your LANs, servers, workstations, and other electrical equipment.
