WEST KINGSTON, RI UNITED STATES
 APC's New Complete, Rack-based Solutions Provide Users with Comprehensive,
  Easy-to-Order and Install Systems for Wiring Closets and Small IT Rooms

    WEST KINGSTON, R.I., Nov. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- American Power
Conversion (Nasdaq: APCC) (APC), a global leader in power, cooling and
management solutions, today announced the availability of its
InfraStruXure(R) architecture in a variety of pre-configured, fully
assembled and tested offerings for wiring closets and small IT rooms,
including branch offices. These new systems increase the speed of the
design process by fully integrating the uninterruptible power supply (UPS),
rack, and rack-mount power distribution in a single part number, allowing
for quick and easy selection and deployment for most IT environments. These
systems are available in 2-post, 4-post, or full rack enclosure options and
represent APC's first "roll-in-place" solutions that ship fully assembled,
wired and tested.

    "Our new pre-configured systems give our channel partners and customers
the ability to easily order and install integrated rack and power solutions
for their IT environments," said Jim Simonelli, vice president of APC's
Solutions Delivery Group. "With InfraStruXure's compact rack-based design,
companies can realize lower initial capital costs and operating costs by
right-sizing their power and rack combinations."
    Each pre-configured InfraStruXure system includes APC's Rack Manager
device. This system level management device provides UPS and rack
environmental status, such as temperature and humidity levels, all through
a single IP address at the front of the rack.
    The new InfraStruXure systems are available with UPSs ranging from
1.5kVA to 16.0 kVA (1.0 kW to 12.8 kW). Additionally, each system includes
rack power distribution units, cable management brackets, temperature
monitoring, built-in management capabilities, and optional service
offerings. The InfraStruXure design also allows users to purchase
additional power or run-time capacity when needed, eliminating the need to
oversize for future growth.
    The newly designed bundled systems are available immediately in North
America.
