APC supports Federal Regulation Section 508 and the continuing efforts of the federal government in making IT products and services easily accessible to all people including those with disabilities.

APC fully understands our government customers must act in accordance to Section 508 of the United States Rehabilitation Act. APC is committed to develop innovative products and services which will provide accessibility for all our customers, including those with disabilities.

APC Hardware Products
APC believes that the majority of the products manufactured or offered by APC are exempt from Section 508 of the United States (U.S.) Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (the “Section 508”), because they are "located in spaces frequented only by service personnel for maintenance, repair, or occasional monitoring of equipment." FAR 39.204(d) and 36 CFR 1194.3(f).

APC Software Products
APC does currently offer end-user software products, which may be subject to Section 508. APC software is designed for the purpose of monitoring and controlling APC hardware products and is based on industry standard operating systems. APC is in the process of reviewing its software to determine its conformance with the Section 508.
