Eaton 5PX2000RTNG2 – 2U Rack UPS with Network Card

Product Overview

The Eaton 5PX2000RTNG2 is a 2U rack UPS with a built-in network management card, providing 1950VA/1950W of line-interactive battery backup for AV and IT equipment. As a 2U rack UPS with network management card functionality, it ships with the Gigabit NETWORK-M2 card pre-installed, giving integrators SNMP and web-based monitoring without purchasing a separate accessory. This network-managed UPS for AV/IT racks is well suited to small business, education, retail, financial, and healthcare networking deployments where servers, VoIP phones, data storage, and PoE switches all share the same rack.

Product Description

The 5PX2000RTNG2 combines line-interactive power protection with integrated networking to simplify remote monitoring across distributed AV and IT locations. Rated at 1950VA/1950W with a unity power factor, it delivers seven output receptacles — (1) L5-20R and (6) 5-20R — to power a mix of network switches, servers, and rack-mount AV control equipment from a single 2U line-interactive UPS for server rack installations. The included Gigabit NETWORK-M2 card is pre-installed and provides SNMP, web, and email-based alerting so IT and facilities teams can monitor UPS health remotely instead of relying on local LCD checks alone. An additional expansion slot allows for further accessory cards as monitoring needs grow. ABM (Advanced Battery Management) technology uses 3-stage charging to extend battery service life by up to 50% compared to simple trickle charging, reducing the frequency of battery replacement in continuously powered installations. The unit's 2U rack height, 23.7 in deep chassis, and 65.3 lb weight fit standard 19-inch rack enclosures used in AV data closets, retail back-of-house networking cabinets, and healthcare facility server rooms. As a rack UPS for VoIP and PoE switch backup, the 5PX2000RTNG2 is a practical centerpiece for any small-to-midsize commercial network rack requiring both battery runtime and remote visibility.
