Not necessarily - your goal is to keep it powered 100% of the time. What part seems to go bad for you most of the time? The power supply, PoE, DC jack, power company/UPS unit?
If the power supply on the board goes bad you're SOL, sorry. You'll have to find another product. If the PoE or DC jack goes back, you need to get both of them powered. If you have the power company and UPS go bad find a second source of power (generator?).
