Dell 12 W AC adapter with 11 tips
This Dell 12 W power adapter converts AC 100–240 V input to a regulated DC 12 V output at up to 1 A. The unit ships with eleven interchangeable barrel tips covering common sizes from 2.5×0.7 mm to 6.3×3.0 mm plus a wiring connector. Polarity is fixed as inner positive and outer negative. It is intended as a replacement or spare supply for compatible low-power devices.
Suitable for 12 V equipment up to 1 A
The adapter suits LED strips, wireless routers, ADSL modems, digital pianos, tablets, network switches and CCTV cameras that require DC 12 V at 1 A, 800 mA, 500 mA, 400 mA, 300 mA, 200 mA or 100 mA. Built-in over-voltage, over-current, short-circuit, overload and surge protection with a fireproof shell adds safety. Buyers whose devices need more than 12 W, a different voltage, or a polarity other than centre-positive should look elsewhere.
5.5×2.1 mm barrel with 11 extra tips
The primary output connector is a 5.5 mm outer-diameter, 2.1 mm inner-diameter barrel plug. Eleven additional tips (6.3×3.0 mm, 6.0×4.4 mm, 5.5×3.0 mm, 5.5×2.5 mm, 5.5×1.7 mm, 4.8×1.7 mm, 4.0×1.7 mm, 3.5×1.35 mm, 3.0×1.1 mm, 2.5×0.7 mm and a wiring connector) are included to match a wide range of device sockets. Verify your device’s socket size, voltage, current draw and polarity before purchase.
