Cyberpower CP900EPFCLCD Backup UPS PFC Pure Sinewave 900VA/540W 2 x UK Sockets 4 x IEC, Black (CP900EPFCLCD-UK)

5 stars for the product so far, though not had it long... Apart from arriving safely and promptly the product itself is looking good so far and a great improvement over an older AEG one it is replacing which was horribly noisy and confined to a large soundproofed enclosure. On mains power the CP900EPFCLCD has been to all intents and purposes silent so far. Even a short accidental use of battery power was quiet. The display information giving power/current/runtime etc. is useful. Seems to have integrated fine with iMac power/shutdown features though not tested it works yet. Software straightforward. With a 21.5" iMac with screen on +3 external HD + another unit with an HD in it, it is indicating a runtime of 20-25mins currently (with about 105W or so load). NB this is the smallest (900VA) model. UPSes seem a bit overpriced in general, in technology terms (not this make/model in particular which is one of the relatively lower priced ones), but at least it seems to do what's required nicely. Also small and sits comfortably on the desk.

This was due to be delivered in about 2 weeks, but arrived in less than 3 days. I have a home server which I constantly keep running and the power in our area cuts out often due to a plant close by, so I needed something to protect my equipment. I have my Home Server and Router connected to this UPS and it shows that it can keep them running for around 45 mins without power which I am VERY impressed with as I was expecting about 15 at most. 1 advise I can give is to try out the 'Business Edition' of the Power Panel software which you can get from the CyberPower website for FREE. Here is the link: [...] It takes some setting up but is worth it. This software will send you an email and/or text message when the power goes out or comes back and you can configure a lot more with it.

Bought 320 of these for a project, not performed as good as APC one which i bought previously but they are cheaper to buy. So far i have 100 failed in 5 years so not bad.

The 900VA 540W version of this CyberPower UPS isn't currently available in the UK, so I had to order it instead from one of the Amazon Marketplace Continental firms here. Being weighty, I thought it'd suffer during the 1 week of freighting but it arrived double-boxed and in pristine condition. First job was to charge the battery which is done in situ and I chose to do it overnight. No problem there. The LCD display on the front, normally off, gives you lots of info and configurable settings. I didn't use the software supplied with the CP900 but instead used my Mac's built-in UPS settings which appear in the System Preferences/Energy Saver applet once you connect the Mac with the UPS using the USB cable. The only small gripe I have is that, being the Continental version, it came with all six outlets as european Schuko sockets, but I expected that. All six on the version I received were battery-backed outlets. I therefore separately bought some Schuko-to-UK adaptors (inexpensive), and had to be careful about their pin polarities, as otherwise the Line and Neutral could get reversed. CyberPower Europe tell me that they're due to introduce later in 2014 a version with a mix of UK sockets and IEC sockets on it, for sale here in Britain. This 'problem' therefore won't then exist on the UK version, as the plug-and-socket arrangement will be fully keyed. Despite the casing being made of some sort of plastics material, I found the build quality really quite good. This CP900 is of a physical size equating to an A4 boxfile and so comfortably sits under my table, protecting my Mac system. There's still oodles of power in reserve, and really all that's needed is a wait of about 3 mins after the outage, for the computer to then turn itself off. You can set the precise time you want in the UPS settings. The turn-off will happen irrespective of whether the computer's left in Sleep mode or you're working at the computer at the time, so is a good catch-all. If tripped by an outage (even momentarily) or a large brownout, the battery-backed output kicks in and an internal fan runs at high speed for about 5 mins, then turns off. The UPS is otherwise dead silent in operation. Admittedly, this PFC type is expensive but in many cases the cost will still represent only 6 - 10% of the computer and other kit, so you have to view it in that context. This is a 'pure sinewave' type and there was no way I was going to risk an expensive Mac with anything less. Pretty well all IT power supplies of 100 watts and more will, by EU stipulation, be low power-factor types nowadays, and approximated, squared sinewave UPSs don't interface very well with LPF power supplies. CyberPower Europe have fielded some additional technical questions I've put to them. They've been very helpful, exemplary even. Thus far, a good product and a good manufacturer. Haven't put it to the ultimate test yet but I pre-tested it crudely with a 40 watt anglepoise lamp as the load and it worked okay.

I already have this unit's larger brother to power my main computer (That can draw over 1KW at full load!) and its has proved to be compact, excellent and reliable. I'd previously had an APC unit which I returned, as the fans kick in even when using AC power once they are over 75% load. These units are SILENT when not providing power. I have this unit powering my 4G router, wireless router and 4 Disk NAS enclosure. on normal use its expected reserve time is over an hour, which usually sees out most power outages in rural Oxfordshire.

Supports NAS, broadband router and 16-Port switch for over an hour. Display provides a useful read out of power input data and consumption.

Neat, with excellent display that can be turned off/on that can display various parameters and settings that are adjustable. Is virtually silent when operating.

You simply don't even notice that it is doing what it does - in a GOOD WAY

Bueno, pues este SAI es una compra segura. Calidad de construcción realmente buena que otorga al producto un aspecto y un acabado dignos de elogio. El funcionamiento, por otra parte, es genial ya que en el uso diario no hace absolutamente ningún ruido, lo único es cuando se va la luz y salta para cargar su batería, pero aunque en ese momento se oye perfectamente, el ruido que emite es durante poco tiempo y no es demasiado molesto (he probado SAIs que metían un zumbido de continuo que era muy, muy molesto, pero este no es el caso). Los conectores traseros son de los "gordos", los llamados "schuko", y trae 6 girados para que sea más fácil enchufar los cables. Aparte incorpora también unas entradas RJ11/RJ45 para proteger estas líneas de voz y/o datos de interferencias y un puerto USB para conectar el SAI al ordenador. Su software, PowerPanel, funciona a las 1000 maravillas (incluso en el novísimo Windows 10 de 64 bits) ya que nunca se ha colgado y nos informa en todo momento de lo que el SAI está haciendo. Además se pueden programar horarios de encendidos y apagados, regular los voltajes a partir de los cuales el aparato entrará en funcionamiento, tanto por arriba como por abajo, realizar una autocomprobación, quitar o no las alarmas, llevar un registro de incidencias con el suministro eléctrico, etc. Y por si todo esto fuera poco su gran pantalla LCD nos informa en todo momento del consumo del equipo en varias medidas, la carga de la batería, los Hz de la línea eléctrica, el tiempo restante de ejecución... en definitiva, un aparato 100% recomendable que seguro que os saca de más de un apuro. Para que os hagáis una idea, yo tengo un ordenador con un Intel Core-i7 4790K @ 4.4GHz, una gráfica NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti, un disco duro, un SSD, bastantes ventiladores, también tiene cinco periféricos conectados, a parte de dos routers y tres pantallas Dell de 24", y cuando se va la luz me permite mantener todo esto encendido unos cinco minutos para que me de tiempo a apagar el sistema. Por cierto, su salida de onda sinusoidal pura ("pure sinewave") es 100% compatible con fuentes de alimentación con PFC Activo, mi ordenador lleva una Corsair AX860 y cero problemas. Lo dicho, un gran SAI a un precio muy bueno. Yo pagué por él, creo recordar, 230€, ahora está por 190. Por cierto, su batería es intercambiable si quitamos un tornillo y una tapita de la parte inferior: [....]

Mooi compact product en fluisterstil.

très bien !!

Sono davvero soddisfatto! Venduto e spedito da Amazon una garanzia! E finalmente un corriere che mi fa apporre una firma a prova della consegna! Dopo un attenta ricerca sul mondo Ups e sulla completa compatibilità con il mondo Linux, il mio occhio é caduto su CyberPower Il CyberPower CP900EPFCLCD é spettacolare e per il mio utilizzo mi da un autonomia di quasi 80 minuti, con un mini pc e un piccolo tv collegati sempre accesi, e fino a 100 minuti con mini pc acceso e lo stesso tv in stand-by. Credo anche che siano numeri conservativi quelli che vengono mostrati! In futuro farò dei test effettivi ma mi ritengo soddisfatti già di quello che vedo Ha un software proprietario decente ma non eccelso, per quelli seri bisogna pagare abbonamenti, e quindi l'ho configurato, smanettando un pochetto con Nut (su Linux) per controllo totale e autospegnimento (tramite usb mini pc) e grazie a script, pianificato notifiche telegram per aggiornamenti di stato. Tutto funziona alla perfezione. Inoltre aggiunto il controllo di stato visivo con Conky e risulta tutto perfetto. Upower Linux lo identifica ma risulta troppo limitato e senza autospegnimento e quindi NUT é la soluzione piú giusta in ogni caso. Questo modello ha 6 prese schuko completamente sotto batteria , un bottone reset posteriore, usb per comunicazione software ed un piccolo display completo con tutte le informazioni basilari utili. Emette suoni sui cambi di stato che potete serenamente disattivare se non volete uscirne pazzi. I test confermano la bontá del prodotto e la continuità di corrente sulle device collegate. Sul tv quando il CP900EPFCLCD entra in funzione é visibile uno sgancio sul segnale video ma ritengo sia normale. La cosa che conta é salvaguardare il mini pc e dare continuità al suo funzionamento e il CyberPower fa egregiamente tutto questo Era la mia prima esperienza con un Ups e CyberPower mi ha dato delle certezze. Vedremo la durata della batteria sperando che il basso carico collegato faccia rendere al massimo il prodotto e la durata della stessa. L'ho posizionato, assieme ad un sensore di temperatura, in una nicchia dove probabilmente si crea un po piú di calore ma allo stesso tempo risulta leggermente piu protetto dalla polvere assassina! E comunque lavorerebbe serenamente fino a 40 gradi quindi non ci sono problemi basta lasciarlo respirare sui suoi lati e la climatizzazione estiva eviterà temperature folli Prezzo poco sotto i 240 euro ma al momento posso dire che li vale tutti

Ich habe mir die Cyberpower CP900 als Ersatz für meine überdimensionierte APC Back UPS 1500 geholt. Aktuell hängt an meiner USV eine Fritzbox, Synology NAS (2 Festplatten), 2x 34" Monitore, Drucker, 2x Macbook. Die CP900 schafft das ohne an ihre Leistungsgrenze zu kommen. Der Hauptgrund für den Wechsel war der Stromverbrauch der APC, diese hat ohne last im geladenen Zustand 21W verbraucht, auf den Monat gesehen sind das knappe 5€ Stromkosten. Auf der suche nach einem neuen Modell sind die APC Back UPS 900, Eaton Ellipse Pro 650 und die Cyberlink CP900 in der engeren Auswahl gewesen. Die Eaton ist direkt herausgeflogen da diese laut Foren und Bewertungen annähernd genauso viel wie meine bisherige APC braucht, die APC 900 scheidet laut anderen Bewertungen in diesem Teil auch nur geringfügig besser ab. Über die Cyberpower hat man nichts negatives gelesen einzig das falsche Produktbild von der Rückseite schreckt im ersten moment ab, ich kann jedoch bestätigen das die USV 6 Schuko-Stecker hat die alle über die Batterie laufen, daneben sind noch 2 Netzwerkstecker und eine USB Buchse vorhanden. Meine Synology NAS hat ebenfalls keine Probleme mit der USV. Im Lieferumfang war ein ein Telefonkabel für das durchschleifen an der USV (die zwei Buchsen sind für RJ45 und RJ11 Stecker geeignet) und 2 Kaltgeräte-kabel (warum auch immer ein zweites dabei ist), USB-Kabel (ca. 2m) und zuletzt noch Anleitungen in verschiedenen Sprachen (auch deutsch) und die CD für die Software am PC (diese nutze ich nicht). Nun noch ein kurzer vergleich zu den APC Modellen: - APC Back UPS 1500 hat 21W im Standby CP900 gerade einmal 5,5W - Beide haben 6 Schuko Dosen, bei APC sind nur 3 über die Batterie versorgt - Das Menü der Cyberpower ist um einiges Umfangreicher und es ist auch möglich per PC software Ein und Ausschaltzeiten zu definieren. - Beide haben einen Lüfter jedoch ist der von der APC deutlich lauter bei der CP kaum wahrnehmbar, beide laufen erst im Batteriebetrieb los, bei APC hört dieser unmittelbar nach dem Netzbetrieb auf bei CP läuft dieser noch etwas nach - Bei beiden Geräten kann man den Akku problemlos tauschen - APC hat einen relativ labilen Stecker für die kommunikation bei CP ist es ein normaler USB-B stecker wie bei jedem Drucker - APC hat ein festes Anschlusskabel für den Strom bei CP ist es ein normaler Kaltgeräte-Stecker wie an einem PC - Laut Cyberpower hat die USV eine "echte" Sinuswelle am Ausgang, APC nicht - Die APC hat ein störendes Transformator Geräusch gemacht (auch während geladenem Akku) bei der CP900 hört man nur ein ganz leises Geräusch wenn man sich auf ca 50cm nähert Da APC und Cyberpower ungefähr gleich viel kosten (bei gleicher Größe) würde ich auf jeden fall die Cyberpower bevorzugen, das soll aber nicht heißen das die APC Geräte schlecht sind.
