Eaton 9PX5KG2 – 3U 5000VA 208V Online UPS G2

Product Overview

The Eaton 9PX5KG2 is a 3U rack-mount online double-conversion UPS rated 5000VA/5000W at 208V, engineered for distributed IT closets, edge network rooms, and commercial AV racks that need dependable, low-maintenance backup power. As a 5000VA 208V rack UPS, it targets facilities that want a 9PX G2 rack-mount UPS for AV rack or IT deployments with a mix of hardwired and L6-series outlets. It's a strong option for a commercial UPS battery backup installation protecting servers, network switches, and rack-mount AV processing equipment against blackouts, brownouts, and line noise.

Product Description

The 9PX5KG2 belongs to Eaton's 9PX G2 line, a 3U rack-mount online double-conversion UPS designed for distributed IT and edge network deployments. Rated 5000VA/5000W at 208V input and output, it converts incoming AC to DC and regenerates a clean, regulated sine wave, isolating connected equipment from blackouts, brownouts, surges, and line noise that can damage IT and AV gear or corrupt data. Output connections include a hardwired option along with two L6-30R and two L6-20R receptacles, giving integrators flexibility to power a mix of high-current server chassis, network switches, and rack-mount AV processing equipment from a single unit. At 96% efficiency in online mode, the unit runs cooler and costs less to operate than older-generation double-conversion designs, which matters in continuously energized data closet UPS battery backup installations. The VRLA battery system supports up to twelve optional extended battery modules, allowing runtime to scale from roughly 9.4 minutes at 50% load on internal batteries alone to well over seven hours with a full extended battery configuration — a useful option for edge network UPS with extended battery modules deployments in facilities without a generator. This is genuinely a 9PX G2 rack-mount UPS for AV rack use as well, since AV racks in boardrooms and auditoriums often share the same power quality requirements as IT closets: clean sine wave output, immediate transfer to battery, and remote monitoring visibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

What outlets does the 9PX5KG2 provide, and are they compatible with standard AV rack power distribution?

Output includes a hardwired connection plus two L6-30R and two L6-20R receptacles. Confirm your amplifiers, servers, or PDUs use NEMA L6-series plugs, or arrange hardwired distribution if your rack requires it.

Can this UPS mount in a standard 19-inch commercial AV or IT rack?

Yes, the 9PX5KG2 is a 3U rack-mount unit sized for standard 19-inch rack rails commonly used in AV racks, data closets, and network rooms.

How long will the UPS run on battery, and can runtime be extended?

On internal batteries alone at 50% load, expect roughly 9.4 minutes. Runtime can be extended significantly by adding up to 12 optional extended battery modules; confirm the exact extended runtime figure for your configuration against the manufacturer's runtime chart.

Is the 9PX5KG2 suitable for both IT server rooms and AV equipment racks?

Yes. Its 208V online double-conversion output and L6-series outlets serve both server and network equipment as well as rack-mount AV processing gear commonly found in boardrooms, government spaces, and auditoriums.

What is the warranty on the 9PX5KG2?

The unit includes a 3-year limited warranty from Eaton.
