What is CyberPower line-interactive UPS?

Line-interactive UPS keeps the load on utility power most of the time and uses an autotransformer with Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct sustained low or high voltage without engaging the battery. On a true outage, transfer to battery is 2–4 ms. The right topology for the majority of SMB server, networking, and POS loads.

CyberPower's line-interactive catalog covers three families: CP / CP-AVR for entry workstation tier, PFC Sinewave (CP and PR variants) for active-PFC server PSUs, and Professional Rackmount/Tower (PR, OR) for the rack-mounted server tier. UPSPLUSBATTERY.CA sources CyberPower on demand and stocks replacement batteries from inventory. For zero-transfer requirements see CyberPower online UPS. For entry standby tier see CyberPower standby UPS. Full CyberPower catalog: CyberPower UPS.

CyberPower line-interactive families

Family	Model prefix	VA range	Output waveform	Use
CP-AVR Series	CP, CP-AVR	685 – 1500 VA	Simulated sine	Home office, gaming PC, workstation
PFC Sinewave	CP, PR	1000 – 1500 VA	Pure sine	Active-PFC server PSUs, NAS
Professional Rackmount / Tower	PR, OR	1000 – 3000 VA	Pure sine	Network rack, small server, AV install

For workstation and small office: CP-AVR. For server / NAS / rack: PFC Sinewave or PR / OR. For zero-transfer (medical / VoIP): step up to OL series.

How to choose

Sizing

CP-AVR runs 0.6 PF — CP1500AVRLCD delivers 1500 VA / 900 W. PFC Sinewave and PR series 0.9 PF — PR1500LCD delivers 1500 VA / 1350 W. Add nameplate watts × 1.25 buffer, pick UPS whose watt rating exceeds. UPS sizing guide.

CP-AVR vs PFC Sinewave

CP-AVR produces simulated sine on battery — fine for desktop and consumer gear, marginal for active-PFC server PSUs. PFC Sinewave produces pure sine — required for any server, NAS, or active-PFC load. For any rack-mounted server, choose PFC Sinewave or PR / OR.

PR vs OR

Both are Professional Rackmount/Tower line-interactive with pure sine. PR is the standard rack/tower convertible chassis. OR is the variant designed for AV / cable-TV / telecom installations with extended runtime support. Confirm by model.

FAQ

Pure sine on battery?

Yes on PFC Sinewave (CP1500PFCLCD) and Professional PR / OR series. CP-AVR produces simulated sine.

Will CP-AVR protect a NAS?

Marginal. Many NAS use active-PFC supplies that reject simulated sine. Choose CP1500PFCLCD or PR1500LCDRT2U for any NAS or server.

SNMP / network management?

PR series accepts the RMCARD205 SNMP / web card. PowerPanel Business Edition integrates with VMware, Hyper-V, Windows, Linux. CP-AVR uses USB-only PowerPanel Personal Edition.

External battery packs?

BP-series modules supported on PR XL variants. Confirm by model.

$500K Connected Equipment Guarantee?

CyberPower's standard policy that reimburses connected equipment damaged by surge / power event while protected by the registered UPS. Specific terms in the policy at registration.

Battery life?

3–5 years SLA in 20–25 °C climate-controlled.

Canadian warranty?

Yes. CyberPower 3-year manufacturer warranty covers Canada. RMA coordinated through our Canadian team.
