The coax cable connection feeding the modem, and the telephone line, are both routed through the Furman.
How would you advise to connect this system?
1. Daisy Chain:
- Furman plugged into the wall. UPS plugged into the Furman. Modem, VOIP box, router and NAS plugged into the battery backup outlets on the UPS.
2. Shut-down protection for the NAS
- Furman plugged into the wall. Modem, VOIP box, router and UPS plugged into the Furman. NAS plugged into the UPS.
3. Parallel operation
- Furman plugged into the wall, everything plugged into the Furman except the NAS.
- UPS plugged into the wall, feeding the NAS only
My main goal is to protect the NAS from power outages. My secondary goal is to maximize sound quality in my audio systems. Which system would you recommend from the above, or maybe there's a better solution?
