Eaton 9SX 700VA 630W 120V Online Double-Conversion UPS – 6 NEMA 5-15R Outlets, Cybersecure Network Card Option, Extended Run, Tower

The Eaton 9SX 700VA 630W 120V Online Double-Conversion UPS is a compact, powerhouse solution designed to protect your critical equipment from power disturbances while delivering pristine, regulation-grade power. This online double-conversion UPS continuously converts incoming AC power to DC and then reconverts it back to a perfectly regulated sine-wave AC output, ensuring your devices face zero transfer-time disruptions and the highest possible power quality. Built for small offices, home labs, and essential IT gear, the 9SX 700VA offers reliable surge suppression, robust battery backup, and intelligent monitoring capabilities in a space-saving tower form factor. Its six NEMA 5-15R outlets provide flexible distribution for computer workstations, network gear, storage devices, and peripherals, all while maintaining a compact footprint that fits on a desk, shelf, or under a workstation. When you need extra runtime for critical workloads, the model supports Extended Run configurations with optional external battery packs, allowing you to stretch uptime during outages. For organizations prioritizing cybersecurity and centralized management, the availability of a Cybersecure Network Card Option adds secure remote monitoring and notification, helping IT teams stay ahead of potential issues without sacrificing performance or security.

• The Eaton 9SX 700VA uses true online double-conversion topology to deliver clean, regulated power to sensitive electronics. By continuously converting AC to DC and back to a regulated sine wave, it eliminates input sags, surges, and harmonic distortions, providing a stable power environment that protects servers, NAS devices, switches, and workstations. This architecture minimizes the risk of data corruption, unexpected reboots, and hardware wear from irregular power, delivering near-seamless protection even during severe outages or utility fluctuations.
• Six NEMA 5-15R outlets offer comprehensive coverage for essential equipment. This layout supports multiple critical devices—from a small server or network switch to a desktop workstation and storage array—without forcing you to daisy-chain power or rely on fragile power strips. The power distribution is designed to balance loads, keep energy usage efficient, and preserve battery capacity for devices that truly need uninterrupted operation during an outage.
• Tower form factor balances space efficiency with performance. The 9SX 700VA’s compact tower design makes it ideal for desks, closets, or IT workspaces where rack mounting isn’t an option. Its quiet operation minimizes desk noise, and its ergonomic footprint makes it easy to place near your equipment for short cable runs and simple maintenance. If your deployment grows, the UPS is compatible with Extended Run configurations through external battery packs, letting you tailor runtime to your uptime goals without replacing your core protection.
• Cybersecure Network Card Option enables secure remote monitoring and management. This feature is designed for modern IT environments that require robust cybersecurity, encrypted data transmission, and reliable alerts. With secure network access, administrators can monitor UPS health, configure notifications, and perform safe firmware updates, all while keeping sensitive management data protected. This option complements Eaton’s IPM (Intelligent Power Management) software ecosystem, providing a cohesive platform for power management and IT resilience.
• Extended Run capabilities and smart battery management ensure you can extend uptime when the workload justifies it. The 9SX supports optional external battery modules that augment the internal battery capacity, enabling longer runtimes for critical applications. Combined with intelligent wake-up, automatic self-tests, and user-configurable shutdown policies, this UPS helps you plan for planned outages and minimize data loss, giving you peace of mind during extended outages or during business-hours when power quality is uncertain.

How to install Eaton 9SX 700VA 630W 120V Online Double-Conversion UPS

• Choose an installation location with clear airflow and at least several inches of clearance around the UPS to prevent heat buildup. Place the unit on a stable surface or mount it in a location that supports its weight and footprint. Avoid placing the UPS where dust, moisture, or direct sunlight could compromise performance.
• Connect the UPS to a dedicated 120V wall outlet using the included power cord. Do not connect the UPS to another power strip or extension cord, as this can degrade performance or overload the circuit. Ensure the circuit can handle the UPS load plus connected equipment without tripping breakers.
• Plug protected devices into the six NEMA 5-15R outlets. Clear labeling or a quick-start map can help you assign critical devices (for example, a server, NAS, switch, and workstation) to specific outlets so you preserve power for essential gear during an outage. Distribute the load evenly to maximize runtime and avoid overloading any single outlet bank.
• Optionally install the Cybersecure Network Card if secure remote management is part of your deployment. Connect the card per the included documentation, then use Eaton IPM software or your organization’s preferred management platform to configure alerts, shutdown policies, and regular self-tests. Keep firmware up to date to maintain security and compatibility with your network.
• Charge and test the battery setup. Allow the UPS to fully charge before performing a self-test. Periodically run a self-test to verify that the UPS can transfer to battery power as expected. If you plan to use Extended Run, install compatible external battery packs following the manufacturer’s instructions and calibrate runtime estimates within the management software.
