Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
Avid highly recommends you create a separate derived power system for your Avid
Airspeed 5000. This provides protection against sudden power surges or losses that could cause
you to lose files or experience data corruption.The power outlets need to be from the same
distribution panel. This helps prevent ground loops that can be caused by plugging equipment
into power sources with different ground potentials. Make sure there is adequate, dedicated
power for the UPSs.

You should have all the electrical work at your site done by a licensed electrician. All the
electrical changes must meet country, state, and local electrical codes.
Avid AirSpeed 5000 supports UPS devices that are connected using network connections, USB
connections, and serial connections. Install the software from the UPS manufacturer for
advanced shutdown behavior, calibrate the UPS device. These software packages also allow for a
connected Windows servers to send alerts to other Windows servers to perform actions.
Your Avid AirSpeed 5000 is connected to a network, network policy settings might also prevent
you from completing this procedure. Make sure there is adequate power and the correct
receptacle type for each hardware component, the rack power strips, and the UPS devices. Do
not use extension cords to plug in any of the hardware components.
