Dear Muditha, This is our configuration, and it works especially well: Our network that needs constant power: (a) 14 Pentium II Servers (b) 1 Bay Stack 303 Switch, 1 Bay 7 Port sw507 and 1 Bay AN Router, 1 Kentrox CSU/DSU (c) Digital phone system We have a Liebert 3000 VA GXT UPS. It gives us about 50 minutes of backup power. The most important aspect is it _cleans_ power (sags, spikes, distortions in frequency). We run our SEARS brand, $899 4250 Watt Generator right to our Liebert, then around our network through 30 AMP circuts. It all worked great during tests.
