Why everyone needs an uninterruptible power supply for your Office and Home electronics

Electronic is designed to work efficiently with the right voltages. Over/ under voltage, Power Surges and Spikes from a non-stable power supply will result in electronics destruction, or reduced efficiency consequently making Electronics lifespan small or destroying active electronics equipment.

Also, Power outages caused by utility failure, accidents, and natural disasters such as storms, flooding, or earthquakes are inevitable. There’s very little you can do to prevent any of these from happening, but you can avoid the consequences to your business by using an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

What is an uninterruptible power supply?

An uninterruptible power supply is electronic hardware that protects both your electronic gadgets by providing Automatic Voltage regulations and backup power source in case of main power source fails or Unstable due to electrical current problems such as blackouts, brownouts, and power spikes.

The most common applications of Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). In Kenya Today

• Offices – Emergency Power back up to protect computers from data loss and harmful voltages
• Data Cabinets and Server Rooms – Protect Structured Cabling Equipment Such as Network Switches, Routers and Access Points from harmful voltages
• Home Electronics for Protection and Emergency power back up

Smaller UPS units can protect individual computers in offices while larger models can power multiple devices or an entire office.

Small businesses in Kenya can opt for UPS units, which should be enough to back up critical computers and other devices that are key to business continuity. The most common UPS Types and Models used in Kenya are

• APC UPS
• Cursor UPS
• Delta UPS
• Mecer UPS

Other UPS Equipment include Power Extension & Cords and UPS Battery & Power Banks

Benefits of having UPS

It’s a known fact that power outages can damage or completely destroy electronic equipment, especially computers. Unexpected computer shutdown can cause great damage to your computer hardware and make you lose unsaved data. A UPS ensures you never experience such a scenario.

• Ups provides Uninterrupted power flow during power surges

When you have UPS, the voltage that passes from the main electrical lines to your devices is consistently stabilized. This protects your computers from power surges, which happen when the voltage in other equipment suddenly rises.

• Power Rectification – Refined and filtered power supply

It normalizes power levels so that your computers are protected against dips and spikes caused by lightning or an abnormal power supply that usually comes from restored power after a blackout.

• Emergency Back-Up- power Instant power during brownouts

An uninterruptible power supply guarantees your operations’ continuity. In the event of short-term interruptions, it gives you enough time to switch to a larger, more stable power supply such as a generator. But unlike a generator, it provides instant power to your equipment at the exact moment the power goes out.

Does your business need a UPS?

If you’re purchasing new computers for your small business, a UPS is an invaluable add-on. Businesses that require constant power to function such as hospitals, banks, academic institutions, manufacturing companies, and any business for which storing and processing data are critical tasks can benefit from uninterrupted power.

Why UPS is necessary for network equipment

Power failure and productivity loss. Using uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for computers, Electronic gadgets, and Network Equipment ensures you never lose unsaved work, but without the internet, you’re practically crippled. To avoid that dilemma, we highly recommend using UPSs for your networking equipment, including cable modems, wireless access points, and routers.

APC and Mecer UPS for network equipment

UPS systems provide backup power in case of outages and protect against power surges, which don’t just damage computers but also make you lose unsaved work. Deploying them for Wi-Fi routers and modems allows you to stay connected to the internet in what is typically a chaotic time.

Moreover, it makes sense to not just keep your PCs powered up, but to also have internet access during a disaster. This strategy works relatively well if your staff are predominantly laptop users, as that means you only need to juice up your Wi-Fi gear.

UPS Solutions are Much Better than generators

Although generators are indispensable for certain businesses, they also require greater upkeep. These can be a bit cumbersome and Pricy for Small- and mid-sized businesses that operate in Busy Office Like establishments

UPS to keep your internet running during the disaster and why internet access is important during a disaster

UPS can be used to offer emergency power back up to Network Switches modems or routers help you stay online for as much as 90 minutes, which should be enough time to get your bearings before power finally runs out.

Internet service providers are usually prepared for catastrophes and would normally have an emergency power source to stay operational. And if you can stay online via Wi-Fi during an emergency, you get the following benefits:

• Internet speed that’s faster than cellular access
• No extra telecom costs resulting from overreliance on cellular data
• All devices stay online using a stable Wi-Fi connection
• Devices don’t have to rely on cellular data-equipped phones for internet connection

Plugin your network gear now

Businesses that aren’t located in disaster-prone areas probably don’t give much thought to installing UPSs for their computers, let alone their modems. But accidents and emergencies are inevitable. And when they happen, you’ll find that having internet access is one of the most important things you need to ensure business continuity.

Think of an emergency power supply source like a UPS as an investment that not just protects your systems from data loss but also keeps your Wi-Fi equipment functioning in emergency scenarios.
