Uninterruptible Power Supply

I've looked around at manuals for the EOS and ION consoles and am not entirely sure about the the type of power supplies that go into the making of the consoles. I am specifically interested in knowing if the console's power supply uses active power factor correction or passive power factor correction. This more or less affects the choice of uninterruptible power supply types.

Would it be recommended to use a pure sine wave uninterruptible power supply or does that not particularly matter to the EOS family consoles? I haven't experimented and am curious to see what others may know or think about this.

    I have been using a standard APC Backup (APC Backup XS-1000) on my EOS and survived both blackouts and brownouts and it has worked fine both times. Needless to say, I don't know what is happening inside the console's power supply. Shoot me a text tomorrow (I have the same number) and I can pop open my EOS and get a part number for the PSU. I am kind of curious too now. 

    Hope all is well. Tell Rimes I said hi.
