Lifesafety Power FPO250-B150M8NLCSD16E6M/P8-A 250W 8-Channel Managed Power Distribution Module
Overview
The FPO250-B150M8NLCSD16E6M/P8-A is a 250W managed power distribution module designed to centralize and supervise DC power delivery across multi-camera or mixed-load surveillance installations. It selects either 12VDC at 20A or 24VDC at 10A from a single AC input, distributing power across 8 individually fused outputs rated at 3A per channel. The managed architecture enables remote monitoring of load status and fault conditions—critical for detecting camera or device failures before they impact coverage. The E6 enclosure footprint (30H × 23W × 6.5D inches) fits standard 19-inch rack rails or wall-mount installations, reducing real estate and simplifying integration with power supply infrastructure in security control rooms or distributed field cabinets.
Compatibility
This unit is part of the Lifesafety Power managed distribution line and operates as a secondary distribution point fed from a primary AC power supply. It is compatible with any DC-powered IP cameras, access control devices, or edge sensors rated for 12V or 24V operation. The 3A per-channel current limit accommodates typical low-power endpoints; verify individual device draw against the 3A rating. When deployed in larger systems, pair with a PoE switch to support higher-power devices requiring inline power injection.
Installation Notes
Verify AC input voltage and frequency match local power availability before installation. Select 12V or 24V output voltage based on camera and device specifications—mixing voltages across outputs is not supported. Each output fuse operates independently, isolating device faults to a single channel and preventing cascade failures. Mount in a climate-controlled enclosure or cabinet; environmental limits for the PDU itself are not specified in available data—confirm with the manufacturer before outdoor cabinet deployment.
