POWER FAILURES OCCUR 15 TIMES MORE OFTEN THAN VIRUS ATTACKS. YOUR BUSINESS INFORMATION STORED ON YOUR COMPUTER NEEDS ADEQUATE PROTECTION FROM POWER SURGES AND BROWN OUTS!! WHAT WOULD YOUR BUSINESS DO IF IT LOST IMPORTANT SALES AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE DATA DUE TO A SINGLE POWER PROBLEM EVENT?

• Buy and use adequate surge protectors & UPS's (Uninterruptable Power Supplies). Surge protectors don't protect you from Brown Outs (low voltage problems). A UPS Uninterruptible Power Supply) is needed to protect from brown outs.

• Surge protectors don't protect you from Brown Outs (low voltage problems) or surges of less than 300 volts,but a UPS protects from both. The less expensive UPS units are simply batteries hooked up to devices that convert the battery power to AC. The more expensive units also filter and stabilize the electricity coming from the wall. At my office we MUST have APC Back-UPS Pro units to adequately protect against dips and Brown Outs. I strongly recommend that you only buy "APC" brand surge protectors and UPS's.
