[Booster pump] pipe isolator to reduce noise??

Hi All,
I have had a booster pump installed in my basement for years. Works great except some vibration is transmitted from the pump through the rest of the copper plumbing, making unecessary noise in my house when the pump is active.

The outlet of the pump has a braided 1" line that connects to the house and the connection to the supply is solid. Trouble is I plumbed a bypass (in case the pump failed) which negates the benefits of the flexible outlet so that's where the vibration is being transmitted.

Is there a plumbing noise isolator that I can install that will isolate the pump from the plumbing and absorb some of the vibration? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Joe
