Marketing Information: Energy-Saving 550VA/300W/120V Battery Backup for PCs, Home Theater and Digital Signage
The standby ECO550UPS UPS system provides reliable battery backup and AC power protection against blackouts, brownouts, overvoltages, surges and line noise that can damage valuable electronics or destroy data. The 10-outlet 120V battery backup is ideal protection for your home office, media center or professional kiosk, security and small-business phone applications, including computers, routers, printers, HDTVs, Blu-ray players, game consoles, ATMs, security systems and digital signage equipment.
Allows Time to Back Up Critical Files During a Blackout
Backup support allows you to work through short power failures and gives you enough time to safely save files and shut down your system in case of a prolonged blackout. Backup time varies according to load, but the ECO550UPS should keep an energy-efficient desktop computer with small LCD monitor powered as long as 16 minutes. During normal operation, incoming utility power keeps the replaceable internal battery fully charged, so backup power will always be available.
10 NEMA 5-15R Outlets Protect Your Connected Components
Five 5-15R outlets provide battery backup and surge protection for your computer, monitor and other crucial components. The other five 5-15R outlets provide surge suppression only for printers, speakers and other desktop equipment regarded as non-essential during a blackout.
ENERGY STAR-Certified to Help You Save Money and Protect the Environment
By meeting strict EPA efficiency guidelines, this ENERGY STAR-certified UPS system helps you save money and energy. An ECO power-saving option features three switched ECO outlets (two surge-only, one surge- and battery-protected) that turn off automatically when the device connected to the Battery Backup Master Outlet is powered down or in sleep mode. These outlets are recommended for printers, desk lamps and other non-essential peripherals that don't need to be operational all the time.
316 Joules Fight Back Against Unexpected Power Surges
A 316-joule surge suppression rating protects connected components from the harmful effects of power surges.
HID-Compliant USB Port Allows for Automatic Saves and Shutdowns
This USB port connects the ECO550UPS to a computer running free downloadable PowerAlert ® software to enable safe unattended file saves and system shutdown in case of a prolonged power failure. USB cable is included.
Combats Electromagnetic Interference That Can Harm Equipment
Various electromagnetic and radio sources found in virtually every home and business can cause disruptive interference on the AC line. Known as EMI (electromagnetic interference) and RFI (radio frequency interference), this line noise is a common cause of performance problems and can lead to incremental hardware damage, data corruption and audio/video transmission problems. The ECO550UPS incorporates technology that filters out disruptive line noise so that it won't affect your equipment.
Home-Friendly Alarm and Diagnostic LEDs Keep You Informed 24/7
The UPS remains silent in both line and battery backup modes. The alarm sounds only to warn you of a low battery, overload or fault condition. A front-panel green LED indicates operating mode, ECO mode and fault status.

Technical specifications
How long it'll keep your equipment up.
Manufacturer-specified runtime at typical loads. Real-world figures depend on battery age, ambient temperature, and load profile.
Estimate based on manufacturer-specified runtime curve. Real-world runtime varies with battery age, ambient temperature, and load profile.
Before you order
How do I know this UPS will run my equipment?
Add up the wattage draw of every device you'll plug in (servers, switches, monitors). The UPS's wattage rating — not VA — is the number that matters. Aim for the UPS to run at 60–70% of capacity at full load: this gives headroom for inrush current and a meaningful runtime margin. Email us your equipment list and we'll size the right UPS within one business hour.
What's covered by the warranty, and how long does it last?
New units carry the full manufacturer warranty registered to you on receipt. The manufacturer handles claims directly via their North American support channel. Refurbished units are covered by our own 1-year UPSPLUSBATTERY warranty handled in-house in Canada.
Can I extend runtime beyond what's shown above?
Many Smart-UPS-class models accept an external battery pack (XBP) connected to the rear battery port. If this UPS shows "Extended Runtime Capable: Yes" in the spec grid above, an XBP is supported. Compatible XBPs and the runtime gain they deliver vary by model — contact us if you don't see the right XBP in our catalogue.
