First time in 20 years of my IT career I’ve heard someone call it an “UPS” and not a “U-P-S” lol

Lol I like your sense of humor. Just installed this in a home rack for a friend and while it bairly provides a couple minutes of battery back up, it works perfectly to stop the whole system from shutting down when the power flickers

Absolutely loved this video! Thank you very much for the amazing humor 😂

Do you know if I have 3 switches with 48 ports in a rack then do I need 1 ups for every switch? thank you

Hi, What I would suggest is running each power supply on a separate UPS just in case you loose power and 1 dies, then your server does not crash, I have had that problem on my desktop PC before.

Wait so the UPS has a fan? I don’t see any ventilation holes on the back or sides…

The purpose for dual power supplies in equipment is so you can run from two separate power sources. When that isn't an option and you're utilizing a UPS, I would suggest just plugging a single PSU into the wall and the other into the UPS. This could increase your on-battery time, however, I haven't tested it myself. I don't have two sources of power in my house but in a datacenter environment, each PSU would be connected to independent power sources. My current set up starts at the main power panel to the house. I installed two dedicated circuits for the server rack. Equipment with dual PSU's are plugged into circuit A while the PSU is plugged into circuit B. The second PSU is plugged into the UPS. For critical hardware with single PSU's I have them plugged either into the UPS directly or into a PDU plugged into the UPS. This solves the issue if something trips the breaker.

*UPS is just for proper shutdowns. For continuous electricity, get a propane or CNG generator for the whole house OR a solar panel + battery DIY setup for your rack.*

Hey Stefano, thanks for showing this unit. I normally use APC gear but decided to give this one a try and I'll have it in Tuesday so it was nice to get a little preview. Small pro-tip for next time, which you may know, but a standard rack unit (U) is three of the square holes. By starting at hole 3 (top hole of first unit) instead of hole 4 (bottom of second unit) you'll eventually have lost TWO units of rack space IF you fill the rack to the top. Totally not an issue for a home rig but something to consider even in a home rack if it's small in size or dense with gear. This is one reason I favor rack rails that are numbered for each U so it's easy to spot front and back what unit I'm in and then also to make sure I always optimize my units. Also, nice recovery at 2:52 on getting those cage nuts in with the nut inside the rack. :) I'm curious, did Cyberpower only include 3 or did the dog sneak by and slurp up the fourth?

The biggest idea i got from this video...is your desk, never thought of using the adjustable work bench from huskey as a desk

Would this work if you plugged it into a power conditioner?

Hey, what server rack is that?

thanks for this video.Its sad,manafacturer didnt do that

My UPS has 4 minutes of runtime and I have a 1500VA one.

Why would you replace a 900w UPS with a 400w when space is not an issue?

Have you found a way to keep the front panel display on and keep it from going to sleep?

"It comes with mounting brackets..." Thank you! Cyber power themselves doesn't tell you this and all the marketing material doesn't show or tell you that it comes with these much needed brackets. Lol. Now that I know it does... I am buying one. Cyberpower owes you money for landing them this sale.

Does it have a fan?

Those are not 10/100 ethernet ports. It's a surge-protection circuit with RJ-45 connectors.

wow only 175 watts per server nice

Meh, line interactive, not double conversion (online)

You lose redundancy that way. If you have one ups, then you connect one PSU behind that one and the other one just normally to wall socket. Better if you have two UPS and they are behind of those ones. But newer both behind the same one. Now when your UPS get broken you server will shutdown. If you have them one in UPS and one live, then it doesnt matter if electricity goes down or UPS gets broken your server still runs. But have to say this is maybe most common mistake that you can see in server rooms.

You really need to get a wireless mic. for your youtube videos

did you study the specs of the UPS you had vs the one you installed in this video???? buahahahahahahah

no, the important question is not the UPS noise. The question is the short 12 min ups time which is horrible. Put your other UPSs back.

This video should have stopped the SECOND you saw that new U-PEE-S had a runtime of 12 min compared to 30-40 min from your other.

Ups lol 🤣 YOU, PEE, ESS honey

59dB is not loud ? are you on crack dude? for a 700 vA, it's horribly loud.

"1U"... it's "1 RU". Also it's "You Pee Ess", not ups. Don't try and be cute.
