Best Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for Home Network
That''s where an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) comes in. It acts as a safety net, keeping your devices powered during outages and protecting them from power surges.
What is a UPS? An uninterruptable power supply (UPS) is a type of backup battery that will continue to provide electrical power to the electronics that you have plugged into it even if electricity from your home outlets cuts out. Unlike a backup generator, it does not need to power up in order to start generating power.
Many models of uninterruptible power supply USP also provide surge protection. A surge protector blocks spikes in voltage so that they do not harm your electronics. So, your battery backup is always at work, protecting your desktop computer, network equipment, or other electronic equipment and charging its battery when not in use.
However, to power your entire home during a power outage, you may need as many as 17 to 40 batteries to supply power for one day without electricity. The cost to hire a professional to install a UPS battery system is $250 to $500 on average. In some instances, you can offset these expenses by DIYing your project.
But if you want to keep your home Wi-Fi network and some other key electronics up and running in the event of an outage, an uninterruptible power supply, or UPS, is worth the investment.
