I needed to change some cabling, as it only has 2 standard UK plug sockets on the back, but has 4 IEC C14 connectors.

I bought an IEC C14 4 Gang extension to plug the other devices (Virgin Modem, AirPort Extreme, Soundsticks and Freecom Hard Drive Dock) into, although they probably don&#8217;t need to be in there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even with everything powered on, I&#8217;m only pulling about 25-30% of what the UPS is capable of, and it&#8217;s telling me it will run on batteries for ~20 minutes, which is more than enough time for my server to shutdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I still need to test that, but just haven&#8217;t found the time.
