The USP over IP, 1 port, is a decent appliance, but it doesn't see everything. I wanted to be able to put my Makerbot Replicator (3D printer) in another room, I thought this would make it possible. After installing the required software and connecting the USB Over IP to my Makerbot I was disappointed to find my computer could not recognize it. I tested different items to see if it was the USB Over IP or the "end" item.. I was able to successfully use the USB Over IP to connect to USB web cams, thumb drives and TV tuner cards (as an SDR appliance.) I did not try an external hard drive. I'm sorry to say, but the only answer I can give you is "I don't know." It works for some items, not for others. The USP over IP, 1 port, is a decent appliance, but it doesn't see everything.

On mine, I've been able to hook up my label printer, flash drive, and external hard drive all without problems; but it doesn't see my phone (to access the SD card in it, etc). It's really random with what devices it can and can't see. So I'm going to have to agree with the other responses and say that you really won't know until you've tried. Sorry.

I have only a little experience with this. I used it to remotely hook up a PLC device. This device is very picky on protocol. I believe that it works for me is because my software has a wide range of comports and the USB over IP set up a virtual COM 12. It's works smoothly where other devices have failed. So, I would say it depends on the software you are using to monitor your UPS.

NO, The circuity of the UPS will interfere with the signal, in fact most power strips, computers, t.v.s and Compact fluorescent bulbs can and will interfere with the signal

No there are no concerns...I am assuming you are coming off the output side of the UPS......just have to remember that your UPS has a output load and if you exceed that then on a power fault you would lose the protection for your workstation. So if you don't exceed the watts output of your UPS then you are good to go

It did not work for me. I tried returning it but UPS didn't pick up and I still have it unused.

Probably not. I haven't tried because I've had it hooked to the computer when I turned it on.

Yes you can either through the internet if u have it set up that way or u can just hook it direct to your computer via the USB or the Ethernet port

No, it's not like other ups with easy battery access. For the price, you would replace the unit if the battery goes out.

Not quite - it can be configured to monitor many types of UPS, either via SNMP or a USB connection, and it will do a graceful shutdown, but at this time it will not power back up when power is restored. The power on functionality may be added later, but there is no guarantee.It can be remotely powered on using Wake-on-LAN and I have been able to use this in a workaround to get my RN102 repowered automatically

Buy a UPS of the type you use on your computer. All functions are there. Size it to how long a power failure you want to ride through.

My router is plugged into a computer outlet that is connected to the UPS and I can continue using the internet on battery power when the commercial electric fails. You can also plug the router directly into an outlet on the UPS that is protected by the internal battery.

think about this, how would you really know is the power got that bad or bad enough and if you saved anthing by buying this thing. I had smart-UPS with surge protector, and lost most of my internet connection and a few computer mother boad. I didn't lose one TV, but to be safe , the only real answer is to disconnect any and all line to it.

Yes, I have two power strips and my UPS plugged in to mine. There is only on AC outlet on the unit so you would need a power strip or adapter.

I only used this and it is easy to connect and it shows if problems with HD, CD/DVD and PSU. Sorry, I can not comment on basic PSU in comparison to this unit

The UPS unit will maintain a/c power to all devices connected to the battery backup outlets of the UPS unit. Loss of internet connectivity is a separate issue which would be dependent on the "cable" or "dsl" etc service provider. You might need to reboot the router after internet connectivity has been lost.

Yes, it can monitor the status of your UPS through a USB connection and automatically power off to preserve data if the battery charge gets low. I use mine with a CyberPower UPS

NO! Only for communication between an APC UPS and a computer via USB. This is not the cable you are looking for. Hope this helps!
1349401
No, it will probably not work. This is a custom cable to connect an APC UPS to a USB port (mac or pc.) It is not a standard usb or network cable.If you are connecting to a router, you should use either a standard RJ45 network cable or a standard USB A-B cable, depending on which the net gear router will support.
