DESCRIPTION
Furman proudly introduces the F1000-UPS: battery backup designed
exclusively for audio/video professionals and home theater acionados.
For decades, traditional audio/video components were simple analog devices
designed to easily weather power outages of well over two seconds. Later, as
computer and microprocessor based components gained in popularity, their
extraordinary sensitivity to even a fraction of a second’s power loss was
managed with traditional UPS (uninterruptible power supply) technology.
Unfortunately, these units were solely designed for the I.T. professional.
Though they included many technologies and features appropriate to that
application, they fell short for premium audio/video components. Though
many of these manufactures later recognized the ever-emerging professional
audio/video, broadcast, and home theater market, their lack of experience
led merely to a re-tooled chassis. These hastily produced UPS devices lacked
the technologies necessary to truly optimize protection, performance, and
control for today’s audio video components.
The Furman F1000-UPS more than lls this void, and offers your system
unparalleled battery back-up technology, created from the ground up to
meet the exacting demands of the world’s most sensitive audio, video and
control systems!
Protection
Typical UPS systems feature antiquated surge suppression technologies that
can cause as much damage and annoying lock-ups as they attempt to prevent.
Only Furman offers battery back-up with our road-proven SMP non-sacricial,
zero ground contamination surge suppression technology and EVS Extreme
Voltage Shutdown. After all, the most robust battery can not function if
the accompanying circuits are damaged. With Furman’s F1000-UPS, you can
expect years of trouble free operation*.
Filtration
Though many control devices are relatively immune to moderate levels of AC
line noise, today’s more sensitive devices (such as DLP projectors) certainly
are not. High-denition technologies have pushed resolution to levels so
extreme that virtually any AC noise capable of coupling with your system’s
signal will distort, mask, or destroy the performance advantages we all strive
so hard to capture and reproduce. Once again, the F1000-UPS is different.
While other UPS devices feature AC line lters suitable for a I.T. closet,
only Furman employs our exclusive Linear Filtering Technology (LiFT). This
advanced noise ltering technology assures that today’s ultra-wide dynamic
range is maintained as it must be – pristine. Remember, less AC noise equals
greater content, greater resolution, and higher denition.
Programmability & Control
Audio/video systems can vary greatly in their size and components, and
as such, exibility is needed in determining how a battery backup solution
should function under different circumstances. Because of this, Furman has
provided open source RS-232 control over two independent AC outlet banks,
with a wide range of control features to interface with an existing automation
solution. Dual programmable IR control allows the unit to send a shut down
command to remote components – no more expensive projector bulbs to
replace in the event of a blackout.

Typical Backup Components
Because of the nature of battery backup technology, high-current audio and
video components such as power ampliers, powered subwoofers, and highwattage displays are not recommended for use with the F1000-UPS. Not only
will these components drain battery power quite rapidly, line impedance will be
raised due to the F1000-UPS’s (or any) AVR and AC to DC inverter, which can
induce current compression and noticeably diminish performance with high-
current A/V equipment.

The following components are ideal for use with the F1000-UPS:
Satellite Receivers • Cable Boxes • Digital Video Recorders
Media Servers • High Resolution Game Gaming Consoles
Lamp Based Video Displays • Control Systems
For power management of other components, Furman recommends Elite i
or Reference i Series Power Conditioners. For high-current components such
as power ampliers and powered subwoofers, solutions featuring Furman’s
exclusive Power Factor Technology are ideal.
