Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is the best value in a UPS for a home networking user.For under a hundred bucks, you get a 500VA ups that not only has network conectivity, but has outlet control!You will end up paying many times the cost of this to find those two features in another ups, and when you do, it will likely be made to fit in a 19" rack.I've got three of these things, on powering my internet/networking gear that's in a Leviton SMC-420 structured media enclosure, and it actually fits INSIDE the enclosure.Another powers my HTPC and Xbox360 that are hooked up to my HDTV, and finally the third powers my windows Home Server machine (currently WHS is in beta/CTP).
I've got another UPS, (smart ups 700) that i bought refurb'd back in college, which i've upgraded to include the networking module and got a new battery for.This last one powers my Beyond TV Server machine which records HDTV over-the-air (OTA) and streams it to the HTPC downstairs.
I will always continue to buy APC for my UPS needs and will likely be buying another couple of these HS-500's when the need arises for another UPS unit; You just can't beat the value of all that this unit provides!
