The Powerware BladeUPS is a revolutionary power quality solution, expanding power protection from 12 kW to 60 kW in a single industry standard 19-inch rack, and most significantly, providing this robust, compact solution without generating the additional heat associated with legacy end-of-row, modular UPS products. The Powerware BladeUPS is designed to be the most flexible UPS on the market. It can be deployed in a number of configurations from a distributed architecture (one in every rack), to end of row (up to six units in a rack), to a central system (not on the IT floor, but in the electrical closet). In addition, the exceptionally high efficiency rating is not a large energy cost burden when installed inline with the output of a large, central UPS or in highly critical computing areas where dual UPS redundancy (2N) is required.
