UPS / router
I've seen "no break" used just the way it is in your excerpt, as a synonym for "uninterruptible power supply (UPS)".
Problem is, the non-U.S. users who've adopted the phrase don't realize that it's an ADJECTIVAL phrase, customarily
used with a noun: "no-break power supply," "no-break battery back-up," etc.
Best English engineering usage would be "UPS," which is pretty much ubiquitous.
"Roteador," of course, is simply "router" (or, to be really picky about it, "router access server (RAS)," for which anyone who's still left at Cisco will thank you).
Cheers,
