APC BR1000MS

Overview

The APC BR1000MS is a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) designed to keep home offices, small studios, and network closets operational during power interruptions. It delivers 1000 volt-amps and 600 watts of continuous pure sine wave output, which is ideal for protecting sensitive electronics from outages, surges, and voltage fluctuations that can reduce component lifespan. With ten NEMA 5-15R outlets, it supports a full desktop setup by providing battery backup and surge protection where needed.

Key features

• Provides pure sine wave output compatible with active PFC power supplies, ensuring clean and stable power delivery.
• Includes six battery-backed outlets to keep critical devices like workstations, modems, and routers running during outages.
• Four additional outlets offer surge protection for peripherals that do not require battery backup, such as printers and speakers.
• Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) corrects minor brownouts and overvoltages without using battery power, extending runtime for true emergencies.
• Front panel LCD displays real-time information on runtime, load level, and input voltage for easy monitoring.
• USB Type A and Type C ports on the front allow convenient charging of phones and tablets without needing extra chargers.
• RJ-45 and coaxial surge protection ports safeguard network and cable equipment from power spikes traveling through data lines.
• User-replaceable lead-acid battery simplifies maintenance and extends the UPS’s service life.
• Includes PowerChute software for automated safe shutdown of connected computers and energy usage tracking.
• Backed by a lifetime equipment protection policy, providing additional assurance for connected devices.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
