Why Every Modern School Needs a UPS: Powering Education Without Disruption
A UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is no longer a luxury for schools, it's a necessity. With technology now at the heart of every classroom, labs, and administrative office, power reliability can make or break the learning experience. Here's why schools across Australia are turning to APC Back-UPS by Schneider Electric, trusted and distributed by IP Trading, to keep education running smoothly.

In the context of education, this means ensuring that Wi-Fi routers, interactive displays, PCs, and AV systems stay powered even when the grid doesn’t.
