Vertiv Liebert GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN 5000VA Online Double Conversion UPS Australia
Vertiv Liebert GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN 5000VA Online Double Conversion UPS Australia
Vertiv Liebert GXT5 / Single Phase Online UPS / 5000VA
The Vertiv Liebert GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN is a 5000VA / 5000W single phase, online double conversion rack or tower UPS with unity power factor and efficiency up to 95%, supplied, installed and maintained across Australia by Indigi Power and Cooling. It delivers continuous, fully conditioned power to server racks, network cores and edge data centre loads through a hardwired input and output plus IEC C19 and C13 receptacles, and ships with a Vertiv RDU120 network card and a 3-year warranty. Indigi Power and Cooling is an Indigenous and Veteran-owned critical power specialist, Supply Nation and ICN Gateway registered.
The Vertiv Liebert GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN is the 5kVA member of the Liebert GXT5 online double conversion family, sized at 5000VA and, thanks to a unity output power factor of 1.0, a full 5000 watts of usable output. Online double conversion (VFI classification) means the connected load is always powered from a regenerated sine wave, fully isolated from the raw mains, so voltage sags, surges, frequency drift, harmonics and brownouts never reach your equipment. For server rooms, network cores and edge data centre cabinets that cannot tolerate a break in clean power, this is the topology that matters.
In a 5U chassis that installs as a rack unit or a free-standing tower, the GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN packs a color graphic LCD with gravity-sensing orientation, individually programmable output sockets, hot-swappable batteries and a Vertiv Liebert IntelliSlot RDU120 network card in the box. It runs at up to 95% efficiency in online mode and up to 98% in ECO mode, and Indigi Power and Cooling supplies it Australia-wide with optional installation, commissioning and ongoing maintenance from our Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne hubs. Because it is a hardwired 5kVA unit, fixed input and output connection is carried out by a licensed electrician as part of a compliant deployment.
Vertiv Liebert GXT5 overview
Vertiv Liebert GXT5 flexible online UPS range for edge and server room applications.
Why the GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN leads its class
Unity power factor (1.0)
5000VA equals a full 5000W of real power. You can load it with more IT equipment than a 0.9 power factor UPS of the same VA rating, saving rack space and cost.
True online protection
Double conversion (VFI) isolates the load from all nine common power problems with zero transfer time, delivering a pure sine wave regardless of what the mains is doing.
Efficiency up to 95% / 98% ECO
Up to 95% in online double conversion mode and up to 98% in ECO mode lowers running cost and heat load in the rack, and it is Energy Star certified.
Intelligent battery management
Battery health status and replacement-date prediction, temperature-compensated charging and hot-swappable modules extend service life and cut unplanned downtime.
Network card included
A Vertiv Liebert IntelliSlot RDU120 card ships in the box for SNMP, web and Power Insight remote monitoring, with no extra accessory to buy.
Scalable runtime
Add a GXT5-EBC192VRT3U external battery cabinet to extend backup from 7 minutes to around 19 minutes at full load, with auto-detection for accurate runtime reporting.

Applications for the GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN
At 5000VA the GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN is matched to concentrated critical loads that demand true online protection: a fully populated server rack, a network core or aggregation layer, a storage array, a small edge data centre, a broadcast or industrial control room, or a medical imaging suite. Because it is online double conversion rather than line-interactive, it suits sites with unstable or generator-backed power where frequency and voltage wander, and its hardwired input handles the higher current an integrated 5kW load draws.
- Edge and micro data centre racks in retail, industrial and remote sites
- Network core, aggregation and storage cabinets carrying a full rack of load
- Server rooms consolidating multiple servers and appliances onto one UPS
- Healthcare, imaging and laboratory systems requiring clean, continuous power
- Broadcast, industrial control and building management head-ends
For larger loads, step up through the Vertiv single phase UPS range, and if you are protecting a full rack or room, pair the UPS with cooling through our server room cooling service. Not sure of your runtime target? Use the UPS runtime and battery sizing calculator.
GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN vs a typical line-interactive UPS
At 5kVA the temptation is to save money with a line-interactive UPS, but a concentrated server or network load is exactly where that compromise costs the most. The table below shows why the online double conversion GXT5 is the safer choice for critical loads.
| Feature | GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN | Typical line-interactive UPS |
|---|---|---|
| Topology | Online double conversion, zero transfer time | Transfers to battery, 2 to 10 ms break |
| Power factor | 1.0 (5000W from 5000VA) | Usually 0.9 or lower |
| Output waveform | Pure sine wave, always regenerated | Sine on battery, raw mains otherwise |
| Remote management | RDU120 network card included | Network card often extra |
| Runtime expansion | External battery cabinets with auto-detect | Limited or none |
Installation and maintenance across Australia
The GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN is a hardwired 5kVA unit, so its fixed input and output connection, rack integration and building supply work must be carried out by a licensed electrician. Indigi Power and Cooling provides single phase UPS installation and commissioning nationally, including rack mounting, terminal-block termination, battery cabinet connection, load transfer and configuration of the network card and shutdown software.
To protect your investment and keep the warranty valid, batteries and electronics should be inspected on a regular schedule. Our UPS maintenance service covers testing, battery health checks and firmware updates, and annual maintenance plans keep your GXT5 fleet compliant and reliable. Internal batteries are serviceable using the GXT5-192VBATKIT, and the GXT5-EBC192VRT3U external cabinet extends runtime when you need it.
Australian sites bring their own power quality challenges, from long feeder runs and voltage sag in regional areas to generator changeover on backed-up sites, and these are exactly the conditions online double conversion is built to ride through. All fixed electrical connection work must comply with AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules and be performed by a licensed electrician, and Indigi Power and Cooling handles that side of the deployment for you so the GXT5 is installed, labelled and commissioned correctly the first time.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Vertiv GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN single phase?
Yes. The GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN is a single phase 230V UPS with a single phase input and single phase output, which is why it belongs in the Vertiv single phase (1:1) range.
How much backup runtime does it provide?
On its internal batteries it delivers about 7 minutes at full 5000W load and 18.5 minutes at 50% load. Adding one GXT5-EBC192VRT3U external battery cabinet extends this to roughly 19 minutes at full load and 48 minutes at half load.
How is the GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN connected?
It uses a hardwired terminal-block input and a hardwired output, plus 2 x IEC C19 and 6 x IEC C13 receptacles for flexible rack cabling. Fixed connection must be completed by a licensed electrician to AS/NZS 3000.
What efficiency does the GXT5 achieve?
Up to 95% in online double conversion mode and up to 98% in ECO mode. It is Energy Star certified, which reduces both running cost and the heat it adds to the rack.
Does it include a network management card?
Yes. A Vertiv Liebert IntelliSlot RDU120 network card is supplied in the box for SNMP, web and Vertiv Power Insight remote monitoring, along with USB, RS232 and dry-contact connectivity.
What warranty comes with the GXT5-5000IRT5UXLN?
It carries a 3-year Vertiv limited warranty for the Australia and New Zealand market. Regular maintenance and correct installation keep the warranty valid.
Can Indigi install and maintain it anywhere in Australia?
Yes. We supply, install, commission and maintain the GXT5 range nationwide from our Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne hubs, covering Perth, Adelaide, Darwin and regional sites on scheduled visits.
