Power Protection

Too Much of A Good Thing Can Be Bad.
Damage caused by power problems fall into two categories - they have happened to your equipment or they
will happen to your equipment. While the most obvious threat to equipment is a catastrophic power outage,
there are many events that can affect the performance and safety of computer equipment. Tropical
Computers has the expertise to help our customers protect their systems from the damage caused by
any power anomalies.

"Hidden" Dangers
Among the 'hidden' dangers facing your equipment are on-going power fluctuations known as spikes
and sags. These events happen on a daily basis and can cause as much - or more - devastation as complete
outages. Spikes can cause catastrophic damage to hardware and the cumulative effect of sags can damage
delicate IT equipment, resulting in loss of previously-stored data. In other words, things you thought were
safe are not.
The costs related to this kind of damage are not limited to equipment alone. For every hour your system is
down your organization loses valuable productivity at every level:
- Current work disappears
- On-going projects are destroyed
- Historic data is lost
- IT specialists have to switch gears to deal with the damage.
Even after the damage is repaired the costs increase as information lost must be restored or recreated.
