Lifesafety Power FPO250-B100D8PM8PNLCE4A 250W Power Supply with Managed Distribution

Overview

The FPO250-B100D8PM8PNLCE4A is a 250W power supply engineered for mid-scale IP security deployments where independent output supervision and per-channel current limiting are required. It outputs either 20A at 12VDC or 10A at 24VDC, with eight separate class 2 power-limited outputs, each capable of delivering up to 2.5A. Each output can be independently assigned to Bus1 or Bus2, enabling flexible circuit topology and supervised branch management. This design prevents single-fault cascade failures—critical in integrations where IP cameras, access control hardware, and auxiliary devices share a single supply.

Compatibility

Deploy this supply in systems requiring dual-bus redundancy or segregated distribution to managed endpoints. It pairs with access control panels, camera power racks, and centralized infrastructure where per-output monitoring and isolation matter. The managed distribution module topology suits integrations leveraging Lifesafety Power's own system architecture and third-party installations requiring Class 2 current-limited auxiliary power.

Electrical Specifications

Select 12VDC (20A total) or 24VDC (10A total) at input time—outputs cannot be mixed. Each of the eight outputs is independently current-limited to 2.5A at Class 2, preventing downstream short-circuit propagation. Bus1/Bus2 assignment allows you to isolate power branches, support redundancy schemes, or segregate device groups by criticality. This granular control reduces troubleshooting time and simplifies future expansions.

Installation Notes

This is a wall-mounted or rack-mounted managed power module. Confirm your input voltage selection before commissioning—conversion between 12V and 24V rails requires physical reconfiguration. Plan wiring to minimize volt drop over long runs to far endpoints; 2.5A per output is sufficient for single cameras or small auxiliary loads but not for parallel-wired devices.
