| APC Offiline UPS: |
| |
The APC Back-UPS ES 700 is an offline UPS, and in this respect it suffers in comparison to the two line interactive models we have reviewed this month, but you do get a lot of kit for the price. |
| |
The Back-UPS ES 700VA looks like a chunky mains distribution board, so it's a unit that you'll want to hide away under your desk. |
| |
All eight outlets (four with battery backup, four with spike protection only) are 13A sockets, so, unlike products with IEC sockets, anything that plugs into a wall socket will work |
| |
At the full 700VA load, you'll get just under four minutes of back-up time, which is somewhere in the mid-range. This more than doubles at half load, though, meaning that if you only attach a PC and monitor you'll probably get in excess of 10 minutes. |
| |
The data line protection is unusual in that it'll work with either a telephone line or with a network connection, but not both at once. |
