Best practice is of course 1:1. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
However, as long as you are watching the amps/watts on the outlets you are using it shouldn't be any more dangerous then using an outlet splitter anywhere else and may save buying a second UPS.

There's no problem at all plugging multiple devices into a single UPS outlet with the following caveats:<br />
<br />
(1) &nbsp;Obviously, you need to be CERTAIN that the total power draw from the UPS is below the rated capacity.<br />
<br />
(2) &nbsp; Do NOT use a power strip or splitter that has built-in surge suppression. &nbsp; &nbsp;The UPS already has superb surge suppression; &nbsp;and putting multiple suppressors in series can significantly corrupt the waveform, and may damage either the connected device(s) or the UPS suppression circuitry.<br />
<br />
A simple short extension cord; &nbsp;or a very inexpensive power strip without surge suppression is best.

I have seen those cables that can make one power outlet two--one male plugs into UPS and two female connectors dangle off of it to allow two devices to be plugged in. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Is that safe if it is two low power devices, like a cordless phone and speakers? &nbsp;Or is it best practice to have one plug and one device?

Safe To Run More Than One Device In One Outlet In UPS?

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.
