UPS for every HUB/Router/Switch will always be usefull :) we have requirments 
that all network equipment ( eg bridges/modems/hubs/routers/switches/ 
_servers_ ) can handle up to 1hr off power shortage ( besides alternative 
power source :) .. so every rack have nice ups  with snmp managment module 
inside .. its not "cost effective" but it works :)
