Overview

A UPS unit is used to provide a stable supply of power to the system in the event of
a power failure or an extensive power interruption.
When a failure is detected in the supply of power, an error can be reported to the
server through the signal cable connection between a UPC port on the server and a
UPS that has the UPC interface. Then the server can execute emergency shutdown
processing to safely shut down the system.
