Applications
The Altos UPS/2 was designed for use with Altos minicomputers, workstations, and similar office computing equipment of the late 1980s and early 1990s — an era when uninterruptible power supplies were increasingly standard in data rooms and server closets to protect against unexpected outages and power fluctuations. Units like the UPS/2 provided a brief window of battery runtime to allow a controlled system shutdown, preventing data loss and hardware damage. Today, a working UPS/2 may still serve as a basic power-conditioning and backup device for legacy equipment it was originally paired with, or as a parts/restoration unit for collectors and technicians working with vintage Altos computing systems. Buyers should verify battery availability before purchasing, as the proprietary battery requirement is the primary limitation of this unit.
This Altos UPS/2 1400VA Uninterruptible Power Supply has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The chassis is clean with normal light wear consistent with previous use in an office or server environment. The rear panel shows multiple AC output receptacles and the AC power cord is present. Note: this unit does not include a battery. The Altos UPS/2 requires a model-specific battery pack, which may use a proprietary connector — the battery is not a standard off-the-shelf replacement.
