Tripp Lite AV550SC 550VA UPS 300W Battery Backup Surge Protector AVR

Utility lines fluctuate constantly, dropping low in the heat or spiking when heavy equipment starts up. We built this unit to steady that incoming feed and carry connected gear on internal battery long enough to save work. It sits neatly under a desk or alongside network hardware.

What it does

How this one is built

Voltage regulation

Automatic voltage regulation trims high line conditions and boosts low voltage back to nominal levels. Connected gear receives steady utility feed without drawing down the internal battery during common sags.

Routed power outlets

A dedicated delay outlet holds back power to network hardware until the upstream modem syncs. That sequence helps your router grab a clean connection automatically after a brief utility outage.

Low voltage DC tap

Regulated direct-current output feeds auxiliary desk hardware directly from the chassis. It frees up regular outlets while maintaining steady current for small peripherals that run on direct current.

Signal line jacks

Coaxial cabling and telephone lines get the same surge suppression as the main AC plugs. The jacks sit along the housing to clean up transient line spikes before they reach modems.

On the nameplate

These are the figures our retail partner lists for this unit. Where a number is missing here it was not printed on the listing, and we would rather leave the row out than fill it with a guess.
