12V 2A power adapter for low-draw devices
This 12-volt DC supply delivers up to 2 amps and 24 watts, accepting 100 to 240 volts AC at 50 to 60 hertz. It suits CCTV cameras, speakers, routers and similar 12V equipment that draws less than 2 amps. The unit is not a charger and cannot power laptops, vacuums or battery-operated gear.
24-watt headroom and current limit
Continuous output is capped at 2 amps, so any device rated 12V 1A, 1.5A or 2A runs within spec. Loads exceeding 24 watts or requiring more than 2 amps will trigger the built-in overload protection and shut the adapter down. The five-fold protection also covers over-voltage, over-temperature and short-circuit events.
5.5 mm by 2.5 mm centre-positive barrel plug
A 55-inch cord ends in a male DC barrel connector with 5.5 mm outer diameter and 2.5 mm inner diameter, wired centre positive. The fixed cable and plug format means the adapter sits inline rather than at the wall socket, so confirm the device jack matches before ordering. The compact brick measures roughly 10 by 4.6 by 6.5 centimetres and weighs about 0.1 kilograms.

Questions about this item
Will this 12V 2A adapter power a legacy router that only draws 1A through the same 5.5mm x 2.5mm barrel jack?
Yes, the adapter delivers up to 2A and 24W maximum, so it safely supplies a device that draws only 1A at 12V.
How can I verify the adapter is working correctly once I plug it in?
The unit has built-in overload, over-voltage, over-temperature and short-circuit cut-offs; if the connected device powers on and runs without interruption, the adapter is operating as intended.
What comes in the box and do I need to buy a separate mains lead?
The package contains one AC/DC adapter with a 55in (140cm) attached DC cord and 5.5mm x 2.5mm centre-positive barrel plug; no extra mains cable is required.
