ELK - PD405P - Power Distribution Module, 12VDC, 4 Outputs

Product Overview

The ELK PD405P is a power distribution module designed to split a single 12 to 24 VDC power source into multiple protected outputs. It is suitable for centrally powering IP/video cameras, PIR sensors, photobeams, and other low-voltage security devices.

Key Configuration

Power distribution module with one 12 to 24 VDC input; provides four 12 to 24 VDC outputs protected at 300 mA each; fifth output provides selectable 5 VDC or 9 VDC with 500 mA PTC protection; input supports screw terminals or a 2.1 mm plug-in DC jack.

Key Features

• Distributes one DC power source into four main protected outputs
• Fifth output supports selectable 5 VDC or 9 VDC auxiliary power
• Auto-resetting PTC overload protection eliminates replacement fuses
• Master power on/off switch provides convenient power control
• Visual LED indicators support quick output power status monitoring

Technical Context

Outputs 1 through 4 use auto-reset PTC circuit protectors rated at 300 mA each, while Output 5 uses a 500 mA PTC protector. This design helps protect connected devices from overload conditions while allowing the module to recover without replacing fuses.

Installation Notes

The module measures 6.5 in. x 4.3 in. x 2 in. and supports input wiring through screw terminals or a 2.1 mm DC jack. Output connections use POS and NEG screw terminals for each output to provide secure low-voltage wiring connections.
