AC Receptacles: The receptacles provide your connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power dur- ing blackouts and brownouts. They also protect your equipment against damaging surges and line noise.

Tel/DSL Protection Jacks (Select Models Only): These jacks protect connected equipment against surges travelling over the modem/fax or telephone line. Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional. Your UPS will still work properly without this connection.

USB or DB9 Communication Port: These ports can connect your UPS to any computer for automatic file saves and unattended shut- down in the event of a power failure. Use with Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Software and appropriate USB or DB9 cable.
