Power problems tend to show up at the worst possible time. A client is in the middle of payroll. Someone is uploading files to a shared drive. A server is running updates. Then the power dips, flickers, or cuts out for a few seconds. It doesn’t sound like a big deal, yet it causes corrupted files, system crashes, and long recovery times.
For MSPs, resellers, and IT teams, these issues mean more support tickets and more frustrated users. Even short interruptions slow down business. Because most SMB environments now rely on cloud apps, local servers, and network gear to function, stable power is no longer optional.
This is why many partners working with Bluechip IT choose to deploy the CyberPower PFC Sinewave UPS range. It delivers clean and consistent power that works well with today’s equipment. And because we stock and support the full line in Australia, partners know they can deploy these units with confidence.
In this article, we’ll look at what makes a PFC Sinewave UPS different, why CyberPower has become a preferred choice among IT providers, and how these UPS models help maintain stability in real environments. If you work with SMB customers or manage multiple sites, you’ll find helpful insight here.
Power Stability Backed by Real Data
Before we dive into the product itself, it’s worth looking at what’s happening in the wider industry. Power-related failures continue to create problems for organisations of all sizes. According to the Uptime Institute’s 2023 Global Data Center Survey, over 60% of data centre operators reported an outage in the past three years, with many caused by electrical issues.
While SMB offices aren’t running hyperscale facilities, the trend is similar. As equipment gets more sensitive and workloads become more continuous, even small disturbances can trigger downtime. This is why cleaner power, better regulation, and more reliable failover protection matter.
What Is a PFC Sinewave UPS and Why Does It Matter?
Most modern computers, servers, networking devices, and even high-end home office setups now use Active PFC (Power Factor Correction) power supplies. These power supplies expect a clean sine wave, similar to the electricity that comes from the grid.
A pure sine wave output delivers that clean, smooth pattern. A simulated sine wave from older UPS units does not. When an Active PFC power supply receives a rough waveform, you may see buzzing, instability, or unexpected shutdowns. Some devices may even refuse to operate during a transfer to battery.
This is why a PFC Sinewave UPS has become the new standard. A CyberPower pure sine wave UPS produces a waveform that sensitive devices can actually use. It also improves power stability and helps maintain consistent power system stability and control, especially during voltage dips or short outages.
For MSPs and resellers, this means fewer callbacks and smoother site performance. It’s one of the main reasons these units have grown in popularity across Australia.
Key Benefits of CyberPower PFC Sinewave UPS
Pure Sinewave Output for Modern Devices
Pure sinewave output helps protect workstations, NAS devices, servers, and creative systems. It keeps voltage clean and predictable, which reduces stress on components. Over time, this means fewer failures and better hardware longevity.
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)
Australian power grids can vary from suburb to suburb. You might see slight drops in voltage during peak hours. AVR smooths these drops and raises the voltage when needed. Because the UPS doesn’t switch to battery every time the voltage changes, batteries last longer.
Line-Interactive Topology
This design gives faster correction during minor disturbances. MSPs like it because it suits most SMB workloads without adding unnecessary complexity. It also handles noise and fluctuations well.
Energy-Saving Design
CyberPower’s GreenPower UPS™ technology reduces heat and power draw. That helps businesses save energy and cut operating costs. For long-term deployments, this matters.
LCD Display for Easy Monitoring
The LCD panel provides information at a glance. You can see runtime, battery status, load percentage, and alerts instantly. It also allows quick decision-making during outages.
Remote Management When Needed
For MSPs supporting several clients, remote monitoring is a real advantage. CyberPower’s software gives you visibility across multiple UPS units, helping you respond before issues escalate.

Spotlight on Two Popular Models: CP1350EPFCLCD & CP1600EPFCLCD
These two models appear in many SMB and home office deployments. They balance performance and footprint well, which is why they’re often recommended.
They work well for:
- Small server racks
- Workstations for engineers and designers
- Backup appliances and NAS units
- VoIP and network gateways
- Remote worker setups
Partners who check the PFC Sinewave UPS user manual often comment on the straightforward layout. CyberPower includes clear diagrams and instructions, which makes installation smoother. In addition, both models frequently show up in PFC Sinewave UPS review articles because of their reliability and the consistent pure sinewave output.
Introducing the New PFC Sinewave (E) Series
Some sites have rack and wall-mount constraints, especially retail stores, clinics, and micro-offices. The PFC Sinewave (E) Series was designed with these spaces in mind.
It offers:
- A slimmer profile
- Better airflow
- Easier cable management
- Flexible mounting options
This series reduces clutter and helps MSPs maintain a clean, organised environment. For small spaces, this matters more than most people realise.
