Bypass Switch for Liebert UPS
The Liebert MP2-115HW is an open-transition bypass switch designed for 120 V Liebert UPS units. It provides a maintenance path that isolates the UPS while keeping connected equipment powered. The unit mounts in a 2U tower or rack form factor and includes a six-foot input cable for installation flexibility.
Suited for 120 V UPS maintenance
This accessory suits administrators who need to service a compatible Liebert UPS without interrupting the load. It is not for systems operating at voltages outside the 110 V to 120 V input range, nor for installations that require closed-transition switching. Buyers needing higher current capacity than the 15 A maximum should look at alternative solutions.
Hardwired and NEMA 5-15 connections
The switch offers both hardwired and NEMA 5-15P input with matching NEMA 5-15R output receptacles, allowing direct integration into existing power distribution. Over-current and surge protection are built in to safeguard downstream equipment during bypass operation. The six-foot cord simplifies rack placement without requiring separate cabling.

Questions about this item
What UPS voltage and plug type must I already have for this bypass switch to connect?
It requires a Liebert 120 V UPS with a NEMA 5-15P input and hardwired output connections.
Will the 6 ms open-transition switching interrupt power to my older rack gear during transfer?
The 6 ms break is brief enough for most legacy servers and network equipment to ride through without rebooting.
How can I confirm the switch is operating correctly after installation?
Verify the status LEDs show normal, then initiate a manual bypass; the load should transfer to utility power within the 6 ms switching window.
