Description
The Eaton 5SC1000 is a professional-grade line-interactive uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed to safeguard critical IT infrastructure. With a 1000VA/700W capacity, it delivers pure sine wave output, ensuring full compatibility with modern active PFC power supplies found in high-end servers and workstations. Its compact tower design and high efficiency rating of 94% make it an ideal solution for protecting equipment in environments where space and energy consumption are key considerations.
This product is for:
- Small Business IT Managers: Perfect for protecting entry-level servers and storage arrays from data corruption during power fluctuations.
- Creative Professionals: Ensures high-end video editing workstations and RAID systems remain stable during brownouts or outages.
- Network Engineers: Provides clean, regulated power to critical switches, routers, and wireless access points in edge computing locations.
- Retail & POS Operators: Keeps point-of-sale systems and security DVRs operational to prevent transaction loss and maintain site security.
- Home Lab Enthusiasts: Offers a reliable power foundation for virtualization servers and smart home controllers requiring pure sine wave signals.

- Input Voltage Range: 96–144 Vac (120V nominal)
- Output Receptacles: (8) NEMA 5-15R outlets
- Battery Management: ABM technology with 3-stage charging
- Communication Ports: USB (HID-compliant) and RS-232 (RJ45)
- Dimensions: 8.2 x 5.9 x 13.4 inches; Weight: 25.6 lbs
- Noise Level: <40 dB at 1 meter
Operating the 5SC1000 is streamlined by the front-panel LCD, which offers clear visibility into input/output voltage, load percentage, and remaining battery runtime. The unit operates exceptionally quietly, maintaining a noise profile below 40 dB, which is suitable for office placement. Integration is simplified through the HID-compliant USB port, enabling automatic, graceful shutdown for Windows, macOS, and Linux systems without the need for complex software installation.
In contrast to entry-level standby UPS units, the 5SC1000 features Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR), which corrects voltage sags and swells without depleting the battery. While online double-conversion systems offer total isolation, the 5SC1000 provides a more cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative for IT equipment that can tolerate the standard 2-4ms transfer time of a line-interactive system, all while maintaining a pure sine wave output.
Q&A:
- What is Eaton ABM technology? Advanced Battery Management (ABM) uses a three-stage charging cycle that increases battery service life by up to 50% compared to traditional trickle-charging methods.
- Can I connect this UPS to my NAS? Yes, the 5SC1000 is HID-compliant, allowing it to be recognized automatically by Synology, QNAP, and other NAS platforms for safe shutdown during power loss.
- Does this unit support 220V input? No, this specific model is designed for 100/110/120V electrical systems common in North America and parts of Asia.
- Is the output pure sine wave? Yes, the 5SC series provides a pure sine wave output while on battery, making it safe for sensitive electronics with Active PFC.
- What is the warranty for the Eaton 5SC1000? The product comes with a 3-year warranty on electronics and a 2-year warranty on the internal batteries.
