For my RBR I use an APC surge arrest. I was thinking of a single outlet surge protector for the satellite, but finding one that isn't very big so I could still use the other outlet if I needed to.

Just another data point, but I have one RBR50 and two Sats with each unit on a separate UPS.
That's probably overkill but then I have never had even one issue with the system.

This, It would equally make sense to have ISP equipment on UPS as well.
Unfortunately the VRAD in my neighborhood is defective and whenever a temporary power interruption happens, have to wait 20 minutes for the box to reboot. Fiber can't get here soon enough.
