I have an APC SmartUPS 700, which I bought many years ago from 
http://www.refurbups.com/.  The manual says it's certified as Class B.

All of the APC units for which I've seen spec sheets are FCC Part 15 Class A
(the industrial spec, ILLEGAL to sell for residential use, roughly 20 dB
worse than Class B).
