CyberPower CP1500PFCLCDTAA 1500VA 900W UPS

TAA-Compliant Pure Sine Wave UPS

The CyberPower CP1500PFCLCDTAA is a line-interactive battery backup rated at 1500VA and 900W, designed for desktop computers, workstations and networking gear that require active PFC compatibility. Its pure sine wave output ensures clean power for sensitive power supplies. TAA compliance makes it suitable for federal procurement and regulated environments. The multifunction LCD panel tilts for readable status updates in low-visibility locations such as under a desk.

Capacity and Runtime Headroom

Five battery-and-surge outlets plus five surge-only outlets provide 10 total connections, with RJ-11, RJ-45 and coax RG6 data-line protection rated at 1030 joules. At half load the unit delivers 11 minutes of runtime, dropping to 2 minutes at full load, so plan for graceful shutdown rather than extended operation. Automatic Voltage Regulation corrects fluctuations between 78Vac and 142Vac without using battery capacity, while the GreenPower UPS design reduces energy waste during normal operation.

Upgrade Path and Fit

This model replaces basic surge strips or simulated sine wave units when equipment demands pure sine wave output or active PFC compatibility. The DB-9 and USB ports with PowerPanel Personal Edition software add managed shutdown and monitoring that entry-level backups lack. Buyers needing longer runtime at full load or higher wattage capacity should consider larger VA-class units, as the 900W limit and short full-load runtime constrain heavy workstation deployments.
