Just another thought after a re read.

If you have at least one three pin connector on your APC you could connect a 
power board to that connector. Your monitor could then be connected directly 
to the APC with the Computer Power Supply being connected to the Board along 
with the networking components. They would all then be protected from power 
fluctations and probs.

Hopefully this will help.
