Altronix PDS8 Power Distribution Module

The Altronix PDS8 Dual Input Power Distribution Module combines two independent low-voltage power sources to feed eight individually fused outputs. Each OUT1-OUT8 can be routed to Power Supply 1 or Power Supply 2 via per-output switches, enabling straightforward redundancy and flexible load sharing in compact installations. The unit accepts two input sources in either DC or AC: 5-24 VDC up to 10 A, or 16-28 VAC up to 14 A, with protection built into each output to limit current to the connected load. Designed to stack with other Altronix compatible sub-assemblies, the PDS8 is well suited for rack- or cabinet-based security systems where multiple low-voltage devices require power from a centralized distribution point. In practice, it streamlines wiring by allowing a single chassis to power auxiliary components while preserving isolation and safety between circuits. This configuration supports scalable deployments, enabling operators to add or reconfigure loads without changing the primary power architecture. The PDS8's eight individually fused outputs deliver a straightforward, serviceable solution for distributing reliable, low-voltage power across a security installation.
