This beep sound during a power cut is extremely annoying. I work during the night, and if a power cut happens I have to stop working despite having a UPS. Even if I am able to stay focussed on my work, the annoying beep sound that plays every minute after a power cut is loud enough to wake up the dead let alone my poor wife asleep in the sane room.
After I misplaced my signalling cable, the APC dealer is asking for Rs.500 for a duplicate signalling cable, which is way too much for a cable. I was shocked to find out that there is no control the hardware to control the beep sound. The speaker is soldered on to the PCB itself, so I can't even remove/disconnect it.
All in all, I regret having bought an APC UPS. Not only did I pay almost double the price of other UPS devices for an APC device, I also have to pay Rs.500 for that silly cable, and Rs.350 as visiting charges to the local APC dealer to come and hand it over to me, or blow up fuel to go around town looking for that cable.
Also, I could not find any earth-shattering feature in the PAC UPS, it is as good or as bad as the devices from other manufacturers.

this is the cable you'd need, based on the information you provided:
http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP9827
is this not available in your region? i don't see why you'd need to buy an entire new UPS to get a cable?
if you can give us the exact model of your UPS from the white sticker on it, we can verify this would be the correct cable.
