It just means it is not an actual sine wave, but an approximation; like almost every UPS sold. A few are real sine wave, but they are expensive. Unless you plan on running a motor off it, it doesn't matter. The other poster was just being silly.
How do I know if my current model has a real sine wave or approximate?

I currently sport an APC Back-UPS RS 1000MS.

This model should be pure sinewave.

With APC models are you able to mute all audible notifications? Meaning, when power goes out I don't want to hear the annoying beep every 30 seconds.

I have a couple very old 1500 cyber power that I am able to mute.

Edit: yes you can according to the manual: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/lit_...612697.pdf

This seems like a pretty good deal. Usually the only good deals I ever see on these is at Costco. Thanks.

Man... I bought one of these last month for a "good deal" at $129. I wish I would have waited! I might buy another one just because.

Ok there is no shipping and the closest Office Depot is 4 hours away, so is this a YMMV type of deal?

Power went off for a day and therefore, I didn't have internet. To add insult to injury, cell phones weren't working either which I assume was because the power went off for cell towers as well.

I just want to use this for the cable modem and my router. How many hours will this give me in the event of a power shut off?

You can try to power up your modem and router DIRECTLY with 12V battery. Most modems uses 12V any way. Some routers uses 12V while some uses 19.5V. I used a 12V battery to power up my TM-AC1900 and it worked perfectly.

This is much more efficient than the 12V (or 24V) DC --->120V AC -->12V / 19.5V DC procedure and saved a UPS.

Not that many. These aren't a generator. I'm not going to do the math, but these are meant to allow you to gracefully shut down your equipment for an outage or keep them on just long enough to power up a backup generator.

Or in my case, my power almost exclusively goes out for a second and then comes back, and these allow me to keep my internet and PC uninterrupted while I'm working.

Would this keep my PC on for seconds to safely shut down? My PC has a 1000w psu.

What about PS5 and AV receiver? Is it ok to use simulated sine waves on them?
Besides pure sine wave what you want to look for is automatic voltage regulation or AVR in many
cases AVR is more important than pure sine wave. keeping that voltage steady is more important than a step or a sine wave voltage drops are the leading killer of electronic equipment. in short you want a steady voltage at all times coming out of your UPS so in a sense it's actually a voltage regulation system for sensitive electronics that don't like 1
0 or 15 volt swings

It really matters if you run a compressor; say on a refrigerator... The stepped wave causes this small compressor to lug. A pure sine wave will not cause a compressor to lug. So if you have a window air conditioning unit as well I would run a pure sine wave on it as well.

I don't use mine as a battery backup except on my router modem VOIP system-these UPSs are more for power conditioning and I would worry more about voltage drops than the step wave versus sine wave. For the same price if you look cyberpower sells a good sine wave UPS
but seriously, who's going to put a refrigerator or compressor on a 1000VA battery backup?
