Guide Overview
This guide contains information about installing and operating the PS 128 Power Supply. In this guide, the terms “PS 128” and “power supply” refer to the PS 128 Power Supply.
Product Description
The PS 128 is a rack-mountable, multiple output 12 volt DC power supply. It delivers a total of 8.0 amps across all outputs with no per-port current limitations, allowing connected devices to receive current based on load requirements. The PS 128 reduces the number of desktop power supplies by providing power for up to twelve devices, resulting in power consolidation and centralized power management (see figure 1 on the next page for an example of a typical application).
The following diagram shows a PS 128 powering two devices.

Figure 1. Typical Application Diagram
Features
- Outputs — Provides twelve 12 volt DC outputs, 8.0 amps total, using twelve 2-pin captive screw connectors.
• No per-port amperage limitation
• Up to 96 watts of power
• Dual-color status LED for normal operating and overload conditions - Rack-mountable 1U, one-half rack width, metal enclosure
Installation and Operation
This section contains installation instructions and indicator information. Topics in this section include the following:
- Rear Panel Features
- Front Panel Features
Rear Panel Features

A AC power input connector (see below)
B Overload LED indicator (see below)
© DC power output connectors (see page 4)
Figure 2. Rear Panel Features
AC power input connector — Connect a 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power source to the AC power connector on the rear panel.
B Overload LED indicator — Lights green or red to indicate the power current status.
- Green — Power is applied and the collective current draw is normal (8 amps or less).
• Red — The PS 128 is in a current overload condition (more than 8 amps).
ATTENTION:
NOTE: To identify a shorted output, unplug the outputs one at a time until the LED lights green.
DC power output connectors — Connect up to 12 devices to these 2-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connectors (see figure 2, on the previous page). Wire the connectors as shown in figure 3. Each output provides 12 VDC. Do not exceed 8 amps of combined current draw for the connected devices.

Figure 3. DC Power Output Wiring
WARNING: Electric shock hazard. The two power cord wires must be kept separate while the power supply is plugged in. Remove power before wiring.
- To verify proper polarity before connection to a device, plug in the power supply with no load and check the output polarity with a voltmeter. Remove power before continuing.
- Do not tin the stripped power supply leads. Tinned wires are not as secure in the captive screw connectors and could be pulled out.
Front Panel Features

Figure 4. Front Panel Features
A Overload LED indicator — Lights green or red to indicate the power current status. This is the same indicator as on the rear panel (see figure 2, B on page 3).
- Green — Power is applied and the collective current draw is normal (8 amps or less).
- Red — The PS 128 is in a current overload condition (more than 8 amps or 96 watts).
ATTENTION:
NOTE: To identify a shorted output, unplug the outputs one at a time until the LED lights green.
Mounting
This section contains basic mounting information. Topics in this section include the following:
- Tabletop
- Rack
- Furniture
- Projector in a PoleVault System
Tabletop
To place the PS 128 on a flat surface like a tabletop or desk, attach the provided rubber feet to the bottom four corners of the enclosure.
Rack
For mounting options in rack environments, go to www.extron.com for a list of compatible rack mounting kits. Follow the mounting kit instructions and see the UL guidelines for rack-mounted devices below.
UL Guidelines for Rack-Mounted Devices
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the PS 128 in a rack.
- Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature, Therefore, install the PS 128 in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +104 °F, +40 °C) specified by Extron.
- Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
- Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
- Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
- Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, the use of power strips).
Rack-Mounting
The PS 128 is 1U high and half rack wide for rack-mounting. See the PS 128 specifications on www.extron.com for the device dimensions.
NOTE: If required, remove previously installed rubber feet on the bottom of the PS 128.
