Reliable Power Protection for Firewalls, VPN Gateways & Network Security Infrastructure
Firewalls, VPN gateways, and network security appliances protect the network perimeter and enable secure access to applications, cloud services, and remote users. If these devices lose power, both connectivity and security are immediately compromised, exposing organizations to downtime, data risk, and compliance violations.
Xtreme Power Conversion offers a purpose-built portfolio of UPS systems engineered specifically for firewalls, VPN concentrators, and security appliances—from ultra-compact branch deployments to rack-mounted enterprise platforms. Our J60, J60C, V70, J90 (120V), and J90i (208/230V) UPS solutions ensure continuous perimeter protection during outages, brownouts, and unstable power conditions.
UPS protection for firewall and security appliance infrastructure to maintain secure network uptime
Why Firewalls & VPN Gateways Need UPS Protection
- Maintain network connectivity
Without firewall uptime, branch offices, remote users, and cloud applications are disconnected. - Protect the security perimeter
A firewall outage removes perimeter defenses until power is restored. - Support VPN access
UPS backup keeps site-to-site tunnels and remote-access VPNs active. - Avoid business disruption & compliance risk
Healthcare, finance, retail, and government environments require continuous firewall availability. - Enable remote management
UPS protection keeps IT and security teams connected for monitoring, updates, and troubleshooting.
