INFRASTRUXURE™

APC’s InfraStruXure is on-demand architecture for network-critical physical infrastructure (NCPI). The InfraStruXure design, which integrates power, cooling, rack, management and services, allows the selection of standardized, modular components to create a customized solution. This standardization coupled with APC’s web-based Build Out Tool enables an easily scalable architecture designed to meet changing needs and future expansion. This patent-pending approach provides increased availability, improved adaptability and speed of deployment as well as lowered total cost of ownership for IT environments – from wiring closets to computer rooms to data centers.

APC HISTORY

Three Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Labs' electronic power engineers founded American Power Conversion in 1981. At the time, the research and development efforts of these three men were focused on solar power. Over the next few years, APC shifted its focus to power protection introducing its first UPS, the 750, in 1984. The need for capital to support this growing business was satisfied in August 1988 when APC became a publicly held company. The stock, trading under the symbol "APCC," was priced at $7.50, or $.125 per share when adjusted for stock splits.

Over the years, APC has developed a global, end-to-end, product offering targeted at four strategic application areas: Home/Small Office; Business Networks; Access Providers; and Data Centers & Facilities. Internal product development has been augmented with strategic acquisitions to form an industry leading product portfolio. Throughout the world, the APC brand has become synonymous with quality power back-up and management solutions.

KEY APPLICATION AREAS

Today, the Company focuses its efforts on four key application areas:

• Home/Home Office
• Business Networks
• Access Provider Networks
• Data Centers and Facilities
• Each requires customized efforts for products, sales and marketing, but each has a common theme: high availability is increasingly essential. APC is positioning itself to be the preferred brand worldwide in all four of these application areas.
