Dell MT-0501 5V 1A Power Adapter
The Dell MT-0501 is a 5V 1A AC/DC wall adapter delivering 5W maximum output. It accepts universal 100-240V input at 50-60Hz and provides a barrel connector with 5.5mm outer diameter and 2.5mm inner diameter that also fits 2.1mm plugs. Polarity is centre positive.
10ft cable reaches distant outlets without extra
The 10ft (290cm) cable uses 20AWG copper conductors inside a flame-retardant PVC jacket. A blue indicator light shows when the unit is powered. The adapter supplies up to 1A, so devices drawing 0.8A or 0.5A operate within the recommended 80% load limit. No additional extension cable is required.
Suits 5V security cameras, LED strips.
Buyers needing more than 1A current or a different voltage such as 9V, 12V or 24V should choose another model. Devices with a larger or smaller barrel jack, reverse polarity or a proprietary connector will not work with this adapter.

Questions about this item
Will the 5 W output limit cause the adapter to overheat if I run a 5 V LED strip at full brightness all day?
The manufacturer recommends staying below 80 % of the 1 A maximum, so continuous full-load use may cause overheating and shorten the unit's life.
How much heat or noise does the 10 ft cable and barrel connector produce during 24-hour operation?
The adapter has no fan and uses a 20 AWG copper cable with a flame-retardant PVC jacket, so it runs silently and generates only minimal warmth under normal load.
My device uses a 5.5 × 2.1 mm barrel jack — will the supplied 5.5 × 2.5 mm plug fit without an extra adapter?
Yes, the plug is compatible with both 2.5 mm and 2.1 mm inner diameters, so it connects directly without any additional parts.
