Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2M8NLC2SD16E8M3/P16-AX2 Managed Power Supply
Overview
The FPO150/250-2M8NLC2SD16E8M3/P16-AX2 is a 150W managed power supply with selectable 250W capacity, designed to distribute power reliably across multi-camera surveillance installations. The unit delivers either 12A at 12V or 6A at 24V (150W mode), with the option to scale to 20A at 12V or 10A at 24V (250W mode) — allowing flexibility in system design without replacing hardware as your installation grows. The eight individually fused outputs (3A per channel) protect each connected device independently, preventing a single camera failure or short circuit from cascading across your entire system.
Compatibility
This supply integrates with surveillance systems using 12V or 24V DC equipment — standard for analog and IP camera power feeds, door access controllers, and distributed infrastructure. The managed output architecture suits installations requiring individual circuit protection and monitored power distribution across multiple zones or camera groups. Verify your equipment's voltage and current requirements before deployment; 12V mode is typical for compact IP cameras, while 24V is common in hybrid analog-IP environments and long-distance runs.
Installation Notes
The E8 enclosure measures 36H × 30W × 6.5D inches and houses both the power supply and distribution module in a single unit, reducing clutter and simplifying rack or wall mounting. Each of the eight outputs is independently fused at 3A, so plan your load distribution carefully — total draw across all eight channels cannot exceed the rated output (12A or 20A depending on mode). Confirm your supply voltage is correct and stable before connecting downstream equipment; voltage regulation depends on input quality. The fused-output design eliminates the need for external inline fuses on each camera run, but you must size your upstream power feed (AC input) appropriately for the selected mode.
