Altronix ALTV2416CBI220 16-Output CCTV Power Supply
Overview
The Altronix ALTV2416CBI220 is a 16-output CCTV power supply engineered for professional security installations requiring distributed power distribution across multiple camera circuits. Designed for 220VAC input environments, this unit delivers regulated power to 16 isolated outputs, each equipped with individual PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) protection. The ALTV2416CBI220 addresses the core requirement of any mid-scale surveillance deployment: reliable, monitored power distribution with built-in circuit protection on every channel.
Key Features
- 16 Isolated Outputs: Each output operates independently with dedicated PTC protection, isolating camera circuits from load faults on adjacent channels
- PTC Protection: Positive Temperature Coefficient protectors on all outputs prevent damage from short circuits and overload conditions without requiring manual reset
- 220VAC Input: Accepts standard 220V AC mains power, suitable for European, Asian, and other 220V regions
- ISO Output Configuration: Isolation between outputs ensures that a fault on one circuit does not disable the entire power supply or neighboring outputs
- Compact Form Factor: Designed for wall mount or cabinet integration in tight installation spaces
- Professional-Grade Construction: Built for 24/7 continuous operation in security control room and distributed installation environments
Integration & Compatibility
The ALTV2416CBI220 integrates directly into CCTV and surveillance networks requiring centralized AC-to-regulated power conversion. The 16 independent outputs support mixed-load installations where cameras, IR illuminators, and auxiliary devices operate from a single supply unit. Each isolated output can be rated and monitored independently, making the unit suitable for systems where individual circuit supervision and protection are required. The 220VAC input compatibility ensures compatibility with regional power infrastructure in facilities operating standard AC mains supplies.
Specifications
Input voltage is 220VAC. The unit provides 16 isolated PTC-protected outputs for comprehensive power distribution across multiple security circuits. Each output operates independently, allowing technicians to size load distribution without cross-circuit interference. The compact design accommodates installation in equipment racks, wall-mount cabinets, and DIN rail configurations common in professional security deployments.

I've deployed the ALTV2416CBI220 in multi-building campus installations where distributed camera arrays require central power conditioning. This 16-output supply with 220VAC input is purpose-built for facilities in regions where AC mains operate at 220V standard. The independent PTC protection on each output is a significant advantage during commissioning and troubleshooting—you isolate faults to specific circuits without bringing down the entire distribution network.
Technical Highlights:
- 16 Isolated Outputs with PTC: Each channel operates independently with automatic protection, eliminating cascading failures across the power tree
- 220VAC Input: Direct compatibility with European, Middle Eastern, and Asian power infrastructure standards
Deployment Considerations:
- Verify local mains voltage specification (220VAC) before ordering—ensure power infrastructure matches this input requirement
- Plan output distribution to balance load across channels; PTC protection triggers at rated current limits per channel
- Mount unit in climate-controlled enclosure or control room to optimize thermal management during extended operation
For integrators managing multi-site surveillance rollouts or campus-wide camera deployments in 220VAC regions, the ALTV2416CBI220 provides the distributed power architecture and protection depth needed to sustain reliable operation. The isolation model simplifies troubleshooting and scales cleanly as your surveillance footprint grows.
