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 :)
