It isn't (in the computer).

UPS stands for "Uninterruptible Power Supply"; it's a battery backup for your desktop compute and usually they sit under or to the side of the desk. A UPS plugs into the wall outlet and has a built-in battery which TEMPORARILY takes over your power needs when/if the commercial power goes out. Most are capable of operating your computer for no more than 15 minutes and few can run a PC for more than just a few minutes, but if the power goes out it's enough to GRACEFULLY shut down the computer so that you don't loose data.

Why is there a USB port on my UPS?

You would need to check with the manufacturer of the UPS. Most likely this is to connect to the computer that the UPS is supporting. As the UPS will only be able to power the computer for a small amount of time there is normally a connection between the computer and UPS. This is for the UPS to tell the computer it is now running on the batteries and to tell the computer to shut-down in a controlled way.

What the use of computer UPS?

A computer UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is designed to provide power to a computer system if normal power fails. The length of time a UPS will support a computer depends on the capacity of the UPS and the draw of the system being supported. Properly configured and installed, most systems will monitor the UPS and begin a normal shutdown when notified by the UPS that a power outage is in process. Some are large enough to maintain computer operations long enough for backup power generation to come online.
