Dell 5V 2A adapter with eight tips

This Dell-branded power supply delivers a regulated 5 V DC output at up to 2 A, 10 W maximum. It accepts 100-240 V AC at 50/60 Hz, so it works on mains worldwide. The fixed barrel plug measures 5.5 mm by 2.5 mm and the cord extends 55 in. Eight additional tips are included for other devices.

Users who need a compact 5 V source

The unit suits routers, hubs, LED strips or small boards that draw 2 A or less at 5 V. The tip assortment covers 5.5x2.1 mm, 4.0x1.7 mm, 3.5x1.35 mm, 3.0x1.1 mm, 2.5x0.7 mm, Type-C, Micro-USB and a DC terminal connector. Buyers whose equipment requires more than 2 A, a higher voltage, a locking barrel or a different fixed plug should look elsewhere.

Fixed 5.5 mm x 2.5 mm output plug

The non-detachable barrel connector is the single specification that determines fit. If the target device uses a different barrel size or a proprietary jack, one of the supplied tips must match; otherwise the adapter cannot be used without modification.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 5.5mm x 2.5mm plug and which tip do I choose?

Match the device port to one of the eight tips — 5.5x2.1mm, 4.0x1.7mm, 3.5x1.35mm, 3.0x1.1mm, 2.5x0.7mm, Type-C, Micro-USB, or DC Terminal — then push the selected tip firmly onto the 5.5mm x 2.5mm base plug until it clicks.

What maintenance or replacement will this adapter need later?

Inspect the 55in cord and the tip junctions regularly; replace the unit if the insulation splits, the pins bend, or the connector feels loose, as the supplier notes cable damage from squeezing or long-term strain.

What limit appears first during sustained use?

The 2A (2000mA) current ceiling — the adapter delivers a maximum of 10W, so any connected device drawing more than 2A will trigger shutdown or voltage drop.
