User Manual
FAQ
What is the difference between VA and watts for this UPS?
This Liebert GXT5 UPS has both a 2000VA (volt-ampere) and 2000W (watt) rating, indicating it can deliver 2000 watts of real power to connected equipment. For many IT loads, the VA and watt ratings are identical or very close, meaning you can fully utilize the 2000W capacity for servers, switches, and other critical devices.
How long will this UPS run my equipment during a power outage?
At full load (2000W), the runtime is 3.20 minutes, providing enough time for orderly shutdown of connected systems. At half load (1000W), the runtime extends to 10.70 minutes, allowing for longer bridge periods during short outages or more graceful shutdown sequences.
Can I mount this UPS in a standard server rack?
Yes, this UPS is designed for both rack and tower deployment. It occupies 2U of rack space (3.35 inches high) and includes a 4-post fixed rail kit for secure mounting in standard 19-inch server racks. The package also contains a tower stand for standalone use.
What type of power output does this UPS provide?
The GXT5 delivers pure sine wave output, which is essential for sensitive electronic equipment like servers, networking gear, and medical devices. This clean power waveform prevents damage from harmonic distortion and ensures compatibility with active power factor correction (PFC) power supplies commonly found in modern IT equipment.
How do I monitor and manage this UPS remotely?
Multiple connectivity options are available: a network (RJ-45) port for SNMP management, a serial port for legacy systems, and a USB port for direct computer connection. The included Power Insight 2.2 software provides comprehensive monitoring, alerting, and shutdown capabilities, while the front-panel color LCD offers local status at a glance.
Are the batteries user-replaceable and what is their lifespan?
Yes, the batteries are hot-swappable and user-replaceable without needing to power down the UPS. The system uses three valve-regulated lead-acid batteries with a typical service life of five years under normal operating conditions. Replacement batteries are available through authorized Vertiv Liebert distributors.
