Altronix ALTV248175UL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many cameras can one ALTV248175UL run?
There are eight individually fused outputs, so up to eight camera runs off one enclosure. Total current available is 7.25A, so add up the draw of every camera plus any heater/blower loads and keep the sum under that figure rather than just counting heads. Eight low-draw fixed cameras is easy; eight heated PTZ domes is not.
2) The Altronix ALTV248175UL puts out AC, not DC. What should I use if my cameras or locks need 12 or 24VDC?
The ALTV248175UL distributes 24VAC or 28VAC across eight fuse protected outputs for powering CCTV cameras, so it only suits AC-input devices. For DC loads, the RCI DKPS-2A is the closest multi-output option, providing 8 outputs at 12/24VDC at 2A. If the load is larger, the Securitron AQS1210 is a switching supply rated 12VDC at 10A, and the Securitron AQL4 is a 12/24VDC switching supply rated 4A at 12V or 3A at 24V. Confirm the camera or lock nameplate voltage type before selecting, since an AC supply will not run a DC-only device.
3) Can the Altronix ALTV248175UL power an electrified exit device or maglock instead of cameras?
The ALTV248175UL is a CCTV power supply distributing 24VAC or 28VAC over eight fuse protected outputs, which is not the DC output most electrified door hardware expects. For exit devices and access control, look at the Von Duprin PS902 base power supply, 2A at 12/24VDC field selectable, or the BEST PS161-6, a 120V input supply with 12/24V output and 6A capacity for delayed egress exit devices. Motorized latch retraction devices have their own requirement and are served by the BEST RPSMLR2 series. Match the supply to the device manufacturer's stated power requirement.
4) What input voltage does the ALTV248175UL need at the panel?
It runs off standard 120V line power, so a normal dedicated 120VAC branch circuit or unswitched receptacle at the head end is all that's required. No step-down transformer ahead of it.
5) Does the ALTV248175UL come with an enclosure, or do I have to buy a can separately?
The enclosure is included, along with the eight fused outputs, so it ships ready to mount at the head end. Nothing further to source for the housing itself.
6) Does the ALTV248175UL have battery backup for the cameras?
No battery charger or standby battery is part of this unit; what ships is the enclosure and the eight fused AC outputs. If your cameras have to stay up through a power loss, you need either a UPS ahead of the supply or a DC supply/charger with a backup battery, such as the Command Access PS204/204B or the Adams Rite PS-1, both of which include battery backup.
7) Why would I pick 28VAC instead of 24VAC on this supply?
The higher tap compensates for voltage drop on long camera runs, so a camera at the far end of a lengthy 18AWG home run still sees enough voltage to stay in spec. Note the tradeoff on capacity: the unit is rated 24VAC at 7A or 28VAC at 6.25A, total 7.25A available, so going to 28VAC costs you some headroom.
8) I only need to power one or two devices, not eight cameras. Is there a smaller alternative to the ALTV248175UL?
The ALTV248175UL is built for multi-camera runs, with eight fuse protected outputs and 7.25A of current in a grey enclosure. For a single device, smaller supplies exist: the Command Access PS1 is a 24VDC linear supply with 1A output, the SDC 620 Series is a 1 amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection, and the ROFU 9126T is a plug-in mini supply at 12VDC and 1.5A with time delay. All three are DC output, so they suit locks and DC devices rather than AC cameras.
9) Does the ALTV248175UL include battery backup, and what should I specify if I need standby power?
The ALTV248175UL ships with an enclosure and eight fused outputs and runs from a 115VAC 50/60Hz input, so it depends on line power. If the system must ride through an outage, the Adams Rite PS-1 is a regulated 1 amp 12/24VDC supply with battery backup, and the Command Access PS204/204B is a linear supply with 2A at 24VDC and battery backup. For a larger controlled system, the Detex 10-800 universal logic controller pairs a 120VAC/24VDC supply with battery backup. Note these are all DC output.
10) Which of the comparable supplies is closest in output capacity to the Altronix ALTV248175UL?
The ALTV248175UL is rated 7.25A of current, distributed over eight fuse protected outputs. Among the alternatives, the Securitron AQS1210 is the highest single rating at 12VDC and 10A, followed by the BEST PS161-6 at 6A with 12/24V output, and the SDC 634 Series at 4 amps regulated and filtered with dual voltage selection. The distinction that matters is output type: the Altronix delivers 24VAC or 28VAC for cameras while those three are DC supplies, so capacity alone is not a substitution test.
11) Is the Aiphone AC-PS1250 a drop-in substitute for the Altronix ALTV248175UL?
No. The Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a 12V DC 5A UL listed supply intended for Aiphone AC Series access control kits, a single-output DC device tied to that system. The ALTV248175UL runs from a 115VAC 50/60Hz input and distributes 24VAC or 28VAC across eight fuse protected outputs for CCTV cameras. Different output type and different number of circuits, so they are not interchangeable on a camera run.
12) Is this Altronix unit rated for commercial buildings, or is it a residential-grade supply?
It's a commercial-grade unit, intended for professional security installs at 120V line input. That's what you'd want for a multi-tenant, institutional, or retail camera system rather than a plug-in wall transformer.
13) I only need to power one or two cameras. Is an eight-output supply overkill?
For a one or two camera add-on, yes. The eight fused outputs and 7.25A of capacity are meant for a head-end serving a whole camera cluster. For a small job a single-output supply like the ROFU 9126T mini plug-in or a Command Access PS1 at 1A is closer to the load, though check the voltage type your cameras need before choosing.
14) I need a supply that comes with its own enclosure like the Altronix ALTV248175UL. Which alternatives are boxed?
The ALTV248175UL comes with a grey enclosure and its eight fused outputs. Among the alternatives, the Locknetics LP Series 150 and 250 amp power supply is also supplied with an enclosure, and the Securitron BPSS is a boxed solar power supply for sites without convenient line power. Board-level or plug-in options such as the ROFU 9126T mini supply and the BEST ELR150 power supply control module are a different form factor and would need their own housing if your install requires one.
15) What should a tech carry for bench testing rather than a rack-mounted supply like the ALTV248175UL?
The ALTV248175UL is a fixed-install unit supplied in a grey enclosure and fed from 115VAC line power. For field checks, the Command Access CAT Field Tester is a portable 12-24VDC power supply that runs on DeWalt, Makita and Milwaukee batteries, so it can power a device at the door before permanent wiring is pulled. It is a test tool rather than a system supply and does not replace a multi-output camera supply.
