Vertiv 500VA Rack Tower UPS

The Vertiv GXT5-500LVRT2UXL is a 500VA, 500W online UPS designed for 120V environments. It supplies pure sine-wave output to six NEMA 5-15R receptacles. The unit suits network closets, edge servers or desktop workstations that need continuous power conditioning and battery backup in a 2U form factor.

Installation notes and common issues

The UPS arrives ready for rack or tower placement and connects through a standard NEMA 5-15P plug. Its 37 lb weight means two-person handling is advisable when mounting in a rack. The only frequent stumbling block is configuring the output voltage to 110, 115, 120 or 125VAC before powering attached loads.

Capacity and runtime limits

At half load the internal VRLA battery delivers 40.4 minutes of runtime; at full load it provides 17.9 minutes. The 500W rating comfortably powers a modest server, switch and monitor combination. Loads exceeding 500W or extended outage requirements will need additional battery modules or a higher-capacity UPS.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the UPS is delivering clean sine-wave power at 120 V after installation?

The front-panel LCD shows real-time output voltage and load percentage; verify it reads 120 V and the waveform icon indicates sine-wave operation.

What ships with the GXT5-500LVRT2UXL and what must I purchase separately?

The unit includes the UPS, rack-mount ears, tower feet, USB cable, and quick-start guide; a network management card and additional battery modules are sold separately.

Which output-voltage setting — 110, 115, 120 or 125 V — should I select for typical North-American equipment?

Choose 120 V for standard 120 V gear; the setting is user-configurable in 5 V steps with ±3 % regulation.
