Comment Power strips (Score 1) 141
Hook up power strips to the UPS outputs but beware about powerstrips not playing nicely with the generated square wave coming from the UPS when the AC line drops. Some fancy power strips see it as a voltage dip and spike and switch off to protect the equipment.
You should have no problem with running a small home office with a 3000VA UPS. I have two servers (mid towers), a gaming machine, 3com 24 port layer 2 switch, and a 3com pathbuilder s500 split between a APC 1500 RM and a APC 1400 RM XL. I would recommend getting the ethernet management card to go with it. It's nice to have it send pages when the power goes out, battery failure, etc.
