Backup for Offices
Protect router, network, laptops, screens and priority desks instead of trying to power the whole office blindly.
Problem to solve
- Most offices lose productivity because internet and a few priority desks go down.
- Desktop PCs, printers, AC and servers change the sizing completely.
- A good plan separates network cabinet, workstations and optional comfort loads.
Typical consumption
| Load | Typical watts | Planning note |
|---|---|---|
| Router / firewall | 20-80W | Continuous |
| Network switch / ONT | 20-120W | Continuous |
| Laptop | 60-100W each | Workstation |
| Monitor | 30-70W each | Workstation |
| Desktop PC | 150-500W each | High variability |
| Printer / laser printer | 500-1500W peak | Usually exclude |
Autonomy and recommended solution
| Level | Load range | What it covers | Recommended solution | Runtime guide |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essential Office | 150-350W | Network + 2-3 laptop desks | 2 kWh station class | 5-11h typical |
| Team Continuity | 350-900W | Network + several desks/screens | 3-5 kWh high-capacity station class | 4-10h typical |
| Business Critical | 900W+ | Servers, several PCs or long autonomy | Assisted proposal | Manual review |
Technical notes before buying
- Exclude printers, AC and kitchen equipment from essential backup unless the client explicitly asks and provides wattage.
- For companies, classify as high-value lead when urgency and budget are clear.
