Product Features

  • The electronic devices you rely on every day for communication, security, and entertainment such as networking equipment, computers, televisions, security systems, and gaming consoles are at risk of damage and disconnect due to unexpected power outages, voltage fluctuations, and other power disruptions.

    The APC by Schneider Electric Back-UPS BK500 provides instant battery power to your critical electronics when the power goes out, reducing risk of damage and keeping you connected and available both personally and professionally. Additionally, the BK500 (uninterruptible power supply) offers guaranteed surge and lightning protection for attached electronics. By connecting your valuable devices, you are ensuring these investments against potentially irreversible damage. When the power goes out, the APC BK500 will power critical devices including home networking equipment, allowing you to maintain your internet connection. This allows you to work productively, avoid the loss of valuable data, and safely shut down equipment.

    The BK500 UPS power supply includes PowerChute Personal Edition software which provides UPS management options, safe system shutdown, and energy monitoring to enable cost savings and prevent potential data corruption. This UPS power supply unit offers six surge protected outlets, three of which provide battery backup, and a 300-watt/500-volt ampere output power capacity.

  • Battery Backup Keeps Critical Components Running

    The BK500 UPS offers guaranteed backup battery power for your electronic devices. When power is interrupted or fluctuates outside safe levels, the BK500 instantly provides clean battery power to your sensitive electronics. Work safely throughout brief outages or save your data and safely shut down electronics during extended outages.

  • Protection from Dangerous Surges and Spikes

    The BK500 UPS battery backup features a total of six power outlets, all of which shield your devices against dangerous surges and spikes in voltage. Three of these are UPS battery backup outlets to protect critical devices like computer and home networking equipment.

  • Prevent Data Corruption with PowerChute Software

    APC PowerChute Personal Edition power and energy management software is included. PowerChute prevents data corruption by automatically saving files and shutting down your system in an extended power outage or low-battery condition. PowerChute monitors and displays energy usage and reduces costs via customized energy management planning. Connect the USB cable that's included with your UPS backup unit to your computer to easily use the software.

  • Phone and Network Data Line Surge Protection

    In addition to standard power surge protection, the BK500 also provides protection from dangerous ‘backdoor’ surges that travel along telephone and network data lines. Just route the phone or data line through the BK500 UPS to protect your devices from lightning, surges, and spikes.

  • ENERGY STAR Certified for Energy Efficiency

    The BK500 UPS is ENERGY STAR® certified for its efficient operation and ability to help realize lower energy costs.
