Altronix ALTV1224DC2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many cameras can I run off the Altronix ALTV1224DC2?
The ALTV1224DC2 distributes power through 16 individually fuse protected outputs, so you can feed up to 16 cameras or accessories from one enclosure. The limit is current, not output count: total supply current is 6A shared across all 16 outputs. Add up the draw of every camera you plan to connect and keep the total under 6A.
2) Does the ALTV1224DC2 put out 12VDC or 24VDC?
Both are available from the ALTV1224DC2, which is a 12/24VDC unit. That matters when you are mixing camera types on one run of conduit: 24V lets you push longer cable runs with less voltage drop, while most compact IP and analog cameras want 12V. Confirm each camera's input before you commit the whole panel to one voltage.
3) What happens if one camera shorts out on this multi-output power supply?
Each of the 16 outputs on the ALTV1224DC2 is separately fuse protected, so a short or fault on one camera drop blows that output's fuse rather than dropping the whole system. You replace the fuse on that circuit and the other cameras keep running.
4) Can I use the Altronix ALTV1224DC2 to power maglocks and strikes instead of cameras?
It is a CCTV camera and accessory supply, and the 12/24VDC outputs suit low voltage accessory loads generally, but it does not include the battery standby a fail-safe locking device usually needs. If you are powering locks and want backup, look at a supply with battery backup such as the Adams Rite PS-1 (1 amp, 12/24 VDC, battery backup), the Command Access PS204/204B (2A at 24VDC with battery backup), or the Detex 10-800 universal logic controller with 120VAC/24VDC supply and battery backup.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Altronix ALTV1224DC2 if I need the same 12/24VDC at 6A capacity from another brand?
The BEST PS161-6 is the nearest match on the headline electrical numbers: it takes a 120V input and delivers 12/24V output at 6A capacity, the same 6A total supply current the ALTV1224DC2 provides. The difference is distribution - the ALTV1224DC2 splits its 6A across 16 fuse protected outputs in a grey enclosure, while the BEST unit is described for delayed egress exit device duty rather than multi-camera distribution.
6) Does the ALTV1224DC2 come with an enclosure or do I need to buy one?
The enclosure is included, in grey, along with the 16 fused outputs. Nothing separate to order for the housing.
7) Is this the right power supply for a small job with only one or two doors?
The ALTV1224DC2 is built for commercial multi-device jobs, 16 outputs at 6A total, which is more head end than a one or two device install needs. For a small access control application look at something like the Securitron AQD1 12/24 VDC 1 Amp switching supply, the Command Access PS1 24VDC 1 amp linear supply, or the Von Duprin PS902 2A 12/24 VDC field selectable base supply.
8) What else can I buy at 6A and 12/24V if the ALTV1224DC2 doesn't suit the job?
At the same 6A capacity, the BEST PS161-6 runs 120V input to 12/24V output at 6A, though it is intended for delayed egress exit devices rather than camera distribution. If you want multiple fused drops at lower current, the RCI DKPS-2A gives 8 outputs at 12/24VDC and 2A. For a single high-current 12V load, the Securitron AQS1210 is a 12 VDC 10 amp switching supply.
9) Is the RCI DKPS-2A a drop-in substitute for the Altronix ALTV1224DC2?
They are similar in concept but not in capacity. The RCI DKPS-2A offers 8 outputs at 12/24VDC at 2A for access control systems. The ALTV1224DC2 carries 16 fuse protected outputs at 12/24VDC with 6A total supply current, so the DKPS-2A gives you half the outputs and a lower total current budget. Size the substitute against the sum of your camera or device loads before swapping.
10) Which alternatives look like substitutes for the ALTV1224DC2 but will not do the same job?
A few in the same family serve a different purpose. The ROFU 9126T is a plug in mini power supply at 12 VDC / 1.5A with time delay, and the ROFU 10305-LA/10306-LA is a power transfer hinge rated 1.5A at 42V, not a distributed supply at all. The Command Access CAT Field Tester is a portable 12-24VDC unit that runs off DeWalt, Makita and Milwaukee batteries for bench testing. The BEST RPSMLR2 is built for motorized latch retraction exit devices and the BEST ELR150 is a power supply control module. None of these distribute 6A across 16 fuse protected outputs the way the ALTV1224DC2 does.
11) If I need a single 12VDC camera run at higher amperage instead of the ALTV1224DC2's dual voltage, what is the option?
The Securitron AQS1210 is a switching power supply at 12 VDC 10 Amp, a single-voltage unit with more current than the 6A the ALTV1224DC2 supplies. The tradeoff is flexibility: the ALTV1224DC2 is a 12/24VDC unit feeding 16 fuse protected outputs, so it suits mixed 12V and 24V device sets, while the AQS1210 is 12 VDC only.
12) Our spec calls for a UL Listed 12V supply for an access control kit - does the ALTV1224DC2 fit or is there a better match?
If the job is a packaged access control kit rather than a camera distribution panel, the Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a power supply for AC Series access control kits at 12V DC 5A, UL Listed. The ALTV1224DC2 is a commercial 120V unit supplying 12/24VDC at 6A through 16 fuse protected outputs, which suits multi-camera and accessory loads where one enclosure feeds many runs.
13) What is the difference between the Altronix ALTV1224DC2 and the Command Access PS1 or PS210 for a 24VDC device?
The Command Access PS1 is a 24VDC linear power supply with 1 Amp output and the PS210 is a UL 6E/CSA linear supply at 1.5A at 24VDC with boost circuitry - both single-device scale, 24V oriented units. The ALTV1224DC2 is a 12/24VDC commercial unit rated 6A total, split across 16 fuse protected outputs, so it is specified when several cameras or accessories share one enclosure rather than when one lock or device needs its own supply.
