Tower UPS with 500VA capacity

The APC Back-UPS Pro BK500BLK is a tower-form uninterruptible power supply rated at 500VA and 300W output. It provides battery backup and surge protection for connected equipment through six NEMA 5-15R outlets. A 16GB USB 3.0 DataTraveler drive is included for portable file storage. The unit operates on 120V input with a NEMA 5-15P plug.

Suitable for basic desktop and networking gear

This UPS suits users needing short runtime for a computer, modem or router during brief outages. It delivers 3.4 minutes of backup at full 300W load and features automatic self-test plus audible alarms. Buyers requiring extended runtime for servers or high-power workstations should consider higher-capacity units. The USB port enables management software connectivity.

300W output capacity defines the load limit

The single specification that determines suitability is the 300W maximum output power capacity. Connected devices must not exceed this combined wattage for battery-backed operation. Three outlets provide battery backup and surge protection; the other three provide surge protection only. The unit measures 6.5 inches high, 3.6 inches wide and 11.2 inches deep, weighing 13.8 lbs.

Questions about this item

How long does the internal battery typically last before it needs replacing?

The internal battery is designed for several years of service; APC recommends replacement when the self-test indicates reduced capacity.

What is the maximum runtime at the full 300-watt load?

The unit provides 3.4 minutes of backup power when all 300 watts are being drawn.

How much heat does the UPS produce when running continuously at full load?

At 300 watts the unit dissipates heat equivalent to its power rating; the tower design vents passively without a fan.
