Oh, Advanced Photonics Coalition, not American Power Conversion, the UPS people.
Most 3-letter acronyms have been used. If you're naming a new thing, check first. Use 4 or 5 letters if necessary to get uniqueness.

> the UPS people.
Oh, you mean Uninterruptible Power Supply, not United Parcel Service. Completely unforgivable to use an ambiguous acronym, death penalty for you.
