Overview

Product Overview

The CyberPower MBP15A6, a 6-outlet (rear), 1U Maintenance Bypass Power Distribution Unit (MBP PDU), provides 100-120 VAC 15A output (derated to 12A) to 6 NEMA 5-15R receptacles. Designed for datacenters and other electrically demanding applications, the MBP15A6 allows the seamless transfer of an electrical load from UPS power to utility power for uninterrupted operation of the connected equipment when performing maintenance, replacing batteries, or installing a new UPS.

A 6-foot AC cord connects to utility power; a 3.3-foot AC cord connects to the output power of the UPS. The UPS draws input power from the MBP15A6 through a dedicated NEMA 5-15R separate from the outlets for connected devices. When the switch on the front of the MBP15A6 is turned from Normal to Bypass, or from Bypass to Normal, the power that the MBP supplies to connected devices moves from one input power source to another. The LED display indicates which power source is active.

Rugged, industrial-grade metal housing protects the MBP15A6. With a 1U form factor, this PDU can be mounted in a standard server rack. Its mounting hardware also enables it to be connected to a UPS for tower configurations. The MBP15A6 is UL and RoHS compliant. A three-year limited warranty covers the PDU for three years and connected equipment for as long as you own the product.

Product Features
  • Power Distribution
    Delivers AC power to servers, equipment, and connected devices via a power distribution unit.
  • Maintenance Bypass
    Qualified personnel can use the bypass feature to disconnect the PDU from the UPS without disrupting power to connected equipment. This feature allows connected equipment to operate seamlessly during maintenance periods, battery replacement, or UPS installation.
  • Manual Bypass Switch
    When the Manual Bypass Switch is turned to Normal, connected equipment is supplied by UPS output. When the Manual Bypass Switch is turned to Bypass, connected equipment is supplied by utility power.
  • Network-Grade Plugs and Outlets
    Highly durable construction ensures the efficient distribution of power in demanding IT or industrial environments to servers, equipment, and connected devices.
  • 1U Form Factor & Mounting Hardware
    The 1U form factor is made to be mounted in a standard server rack. Mounting hardware allows the PDU to be connected to a UPS for tower configurations.
  • Durable Metal Housing
    Protects internal components and resists damage from impact or abrasions within challenging industrial environments. Also extends the life of the product.
  • Three-Year Limited Warranty
    Covers defects in materials and workmanship in the product under normal use and conditions. See warranty for details.
