Lifesafety Power FPO250-2C82D8E4M1 250W Dual-Output Power Supply Board

Overview

The FPO250-2C82D8E4M1 is a 250W power supply board engineered for centralized distribution to multiple IP cameras, access control hardware, and network endpoints in security installations. The dual-output configuration—20A at 12VDC or 10A at 24VDC—lets you match the voltage requirements of your installed base without deploying separate supplies, reducing cabinet clutter and simplifying maintenance across distributed surveillance and access systems.

Compatibility

Confirm input voltage and output amperage requirements against your specific camera, door controller, or network device documentation before ordering. The FPO250-2C82D8E4M1 is designed to integrate into centralized power infrastructure supporting multiple endpoints; verify your installation does not exceed the specified amperage per output rail to avoid nuisance shutdowns during peak load.

Installation Notes

This is a board-level component intended for rackmount or cabinet integration. Ensure adequate ventilation around the supply to manage the thermal load during sustained full-power operation. Wire gauge and circuit protection must comply with NEC Article 725 (Class 2 circuits) or equivalent local code. Confirm DC polarity at each output terminal before connecting downstream loads.

When to Choose a Different Model

If your installation requires PoE switch capability (integrated power injection over Ethernet to IP cameras), a managed power distribution unit with PoE output may be more efficient than this board paired with separate PoE injectors. For single-voltage applications under 150W, a smaller supply in the Lifesafety Power family may reduce cost and form-factor footprint.
