Intrex has some UPS units. That is where I bought mine. I wanted one 
that would do some filtering of spikes and brownouts, plus be available 
to charge cell phones during an extended outage. I have my desktop, plus 
the cable modem & router on it with no problem. <http://intrex.com/> Specs

UPS-CP685AVR

The AVR Series CP685AVR UPS is an ideal unit for basic to mid-level computer 
systems. The 685AVR guards against surges, spikes, sags, and brownouts, and 
protects your computer system and valuable data during a power outage. 
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) monitors incoming AC power and maintains a 
safe voltage level. This model also has full dataline protection for 
RJ11/RJ45 and RG-6 coax. PowerPanel PE™ Power Management supplements the 
backup/surge protection by monitoring the status of your UPS and safely shuts 
down your system in event of a power outage. The standalone design allows for 
vertical, horizontal, or out-of-site wall mount.
