Test conditions and notes7
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at normal input (C:48Vdc , D:110Vdc) , rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 5. 3 seconds max., please refer to peak loading curves.
- 6. The power supply is considered as an independent unit, but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
- 7. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
Can I use the DDR-120D-48 to power 48V PoE equipment from a 110V DC distribution bus?
Yes. The DDR-120D-48 accepts 67.2-154V DC input and outputs a regulated 48V at 2.5A (120W). This is sufficient for a small PoE switch or PoE injector in utility substations or railway installations where 110V DC buses are common. The 4KVdc input-to-output isolation separates the Ethernet equipment from the high-voltage bus.
Is the DDR-120D-48 a good fit for converting a 125V DC UPS output to 48V for telecom loads?
Yes, as long as the bus stays within the 67.2-154V input range, which includes a nominal 125V DC. The 120W at 48V/2.5A output can feed small telecom modules, fiber optic media converters, or 48V rack equipment. DIN rail mounting integrates easily into standard telecom distribution panels.
Can the DDR-120D-48 supply 48V to industrial Ethernet switches in a process control cabinet?
Yes. Many managed industrial Ethernet switches require 48V DC input, and 120W at 2.5A provides enough power for a mid-range switch plus a few PoE-powered field devices. The slim 32mm width helps conserve space in the control cabinet.
Will the DDR-120D-48 work in extreme-temperature outdoor enclosures?
It operates from -40°C to +70°C, with load derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve, so it covers cold starts down to -40°C but not ambients above +70°C. Install it inside a sealed enclosure to guard against moisture and particulate ingress, as the datasheet lists no IP rating for the converter.
How do the DDR-120 48V output models differ across the A, B, C, and D input ranges?
All four deliver 48V on a DIN rail mount. The DDR-120A-48 accepts 9-18V input at 100.8W/2.1A. The DDR-120B-48 accepts 16.8-33.6V at 120W/2.5A. The DDR-120C-48 accepts 33.6-67.2V at 120W/2.5A. The DDR-120D-48 accepts 67.2-154V at 120W/2.5A. The letter suffix identifies the input voltage range.
