Load balancing helps IT teams better protect devices
Designed to be stacked in server racks, each Eaton 9PX UPS occupies 2 units of space. When installing multiple devices, power management software makes it easy to distribute the load across all UPSs to maximize efficiency. The device also has a large LED panel for local status updates and a network card for setting up remote monitoring.
The 1,350 Watt UPS has eight outlets for connecting equipment. The device is rated to deliver power for up to 5 minutes at full load and up to 14 minutes at half load. In my testing, it slightly exceeded that rating, giving administrators plenty of time to safely shut down connected servers and other equipment. You can also configure an automatic shutdown procedure that is triggered whenever mains power is lost.
How Eaton 9PX Powers Your Devices Cleanly
It uses double conversion technology to regulate power to ensure only clean power is delivered to your connected devices. This helps extend the life of your device by protecting it from surges and providing an optimal and stable power supply.
Another Eaton innovation is advanced battery management charging technology designed to extend battery life. Instead of using battery-taxing trickle charging, his UPS units from Eaton use three-stage charging technology, which the company says extends the UPS’s lifespan by up to 30 months and It can effectively double the battery life.
The Eaton 9PX UPS also comes with a network card and management software, allowing IT administrators to monitor power management from a central location.
