Reliable Battery Backup

UPS battery backup support enables you to work through short power failures, and provides time to save files and perform an orderly system shutdown in case of a prolonged blackout. The INTERNET350U features an internal battery that provides 3 min. of battery support for a full load (180 watts), 11 min. for a half-load (90 watts) or 12 min. for a basic desktop PC. During normal operation, incoming utility power keeps the UPS battery fully charged so that backup power will always be available if needed.

Surge Suppression

A sudden power surge or spike can damage or destroy electronic components and wipe out irreplaceable data. The INTERNET350U features built-in surge suppression to protect all connected components and the data they contain.

EMI/RFI Line Noise Filtering

Various electromagnetic and radio sources can cause disruptive interference on the AC line. This line noise is a common cause of incremental hardware damage, data corruption and audio/video performance problems. The INTERNET350U incorporates technology that filters out disruptive line noise, preventing it from affecting your equipment.

Data Line Protection

The INTERNET350U includes one set of tel/DSL (RJ11) jacks to protect a standard telephone, fax, dialup modem or DSL connection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Update: YOU CAN STOP THE BEEPING!, February 11, 2010

There's very little that needs explaining with this, really. Read the item description -- it does all of that, and it does it flawlessly in my experience. I've had absolutely no trouble using the thing, and the few power outages I've experienced were handled perfectly. (Even the one time it was accidentally unplugged.) The battery lasts my computer and monitor about 20 minutes.

The only small caveat I've noticed is that turning the power on or off causes the device to beep loudly. There may be a way to turn this off, but I've not found one, and it can be a bit of a pain when I'm trying to turn it off late at night! Of course, you really only need to turn it off if you're the type to unplug your computer at night (like me), so it may not be an issue for you.

UPDATE: I've learned after a bit of playing that YOU CAN TURN OFF THE ANNOYING BEEPING NOISE! Use the included strange USB thing to hook it up to your computer, then use the free PowerAlert software from Tripp Lite's website. Switch the software into Business mode, then go over to the Action section. In the list of actions is "Set Audible Alarm". Set the value to 1 (even if it's already 1, overwrite it), then execute the command. After a second or two, the program will unfreeze, and it will be completely silent when it loses power from then on!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for routers, November 27, 2009

I bought this to use with my Verizon FIOS router as the router is not protected from power issues. This unit is small and works well replacing a bulkier APC unit that failed on me. I suggest this for all home routers. I have a lot of experience with Battery Backups, both at home (I have them on every TV and computer) and previously as a IT Network Manager and would recommend this to everyone. The size and capacity are perfect for a router. Trust me on this one, getting one of these for a router will really save you headaches in the long run. I went with Tripp Lite as they have been around for a very long time, and to me, the lower priced APC units jut don't cut it anymore for me. AMAZON was the best deal for this compact ups when you consider shipping costs. I used Super Saving shipping and it shipped for free - the final price you pay is what matters. And I received it quite fast. No complaints. I bought it directly form AMAZON (as the seller) , it came fast, I installed it, and it is working fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect UPS for WD ShareShace, January 25, 2010

I live in an area that isn't that old and all the power is underground. So, you'd think that I wouldn't need a product like this. However, we seem to lose power several times a year and I started to get really paranoid about losing power to my ShareSpace NAS device. This was listed under the support matrix for UPS devices and was nearly the least expensive. I've read more positive reviews of this on other sites, so I thought I'd give it a try.

The device works very well and is very easy to install and take advantage of. It's almost plug and play. First, you plug this into the wall socket. It has six outlets, but only three of them are protected by the battery. Next, plug in any devices that you'd like protected into the protected outlets. The UPS has a USB port, which can be used to notify ONE device to safely shutdown before the battery is depleted, due to a power outage. Next, I connected the ShareSpace to the UPS via the USB cable. I loaded up the ShareSpace GUI and went into the UPS configuration screen. It took a couple of minutes for the ShareSpace to recognize the UPS and gather information such as the current battery status.

It wasn't more then a month before the UPS was tested when we lost power. During this period, the UPS continously beeped, which was to notify that the battery is in use. The ShareSpace knew that it was being protected by the UPS through the status screen. The power was out for nearly 15 minutes and the ShareSpace stayed up the whole time. Once the power was restored, everything went back to normal.

Needless to say, I am extremely happy with this device. And the price point is excellent! In fact, I plan on purchasing at least one more to keep a couple more devices powered up. I highly recommend this based on an excellent value and on real world experience. Plus, if you have a ShareSpace, rest assured that this will work perfectly.
