The Powerbox PB362 is a 19" rack mount AC/DC power supply designed and manufactured in Australia for telecommunications, industrial, security and power utility systems that need high-power DC from a centralised rack installation. It is available in 600W and 1000W ratings with 12Vdc, 24Vdc or 48Vdc outputs, running from a universal 100 to 240Vac input.

Six models cover the range: 12Vdc at 53A or 88A, 24Vdc at 27A or 44A, and 48Vdc at 13A or 22A. Each unit sits in a 2RU enclosure with forced-air cooling and an IEC C14 AC inlet, operates from -20°C to 71°C, and reaches efficiency of up to 86%.

A front-panel LCD shows output voltage, output current and AC/DC status, so technicians can check the supply at the rack without a meter. Options include an Ethernet interface with web server and SNMP for remote monitoring, AC Mains OK and Rectifier OK alarm relays for signalling to a site controller, and an alternate output voltage setting.

The Powerbox PB362 has built-in constant current limiting, output short circuit, output overvoltage and overtemperature protection, with low output noise for sensitive communications loads. It complies with AS/NZS 60950 safety and AS/NZS CISPR22 Class B EMC standards.

Because the PB362 is made locally, Australian engineering support is available for model selection, configuration and system integration. For other input and output combinations, browse our full range of AC/DC power supplies.

FAQs
The PB362 is a high-power 19" rack-mount AC/DC power supply manufactured in Australia by Powerbox, designed for telecommunications, industrial, and radio communications applications requiring high-power DC in a centralised rack installation.
The PB362 is available in 600W and 1000W output power ratings, each in three DC output voltage options: 12Vdc, 24Vdc, and 48Vdc. All models accept a universal AC input of 100–240Vac (50/60Hz). Output current is proportional — for example, the 1000W 24Vdc model delivers approximately 41.6A continuous. Select the power rating based on your total load plus growth headroom, and the voltage based on your system bus requirement.
Yes. The PB362 includes an LCD display for real-time monitoring of output voltage, current, and system status — an advantage over LED-only indicators for field diagnostics.
Yes. An optional Ethernet interface with an embedded web server and SNMP support enables remote monitoring and management over IP networks.
It complies with relevant Australian safety (AS/NZS 60950.1) and EMC (AS/NZS CISPR22) standards, and is designed and manufactured in Australia.
Both are Powerbox-made 19" rack-mount AC/DC power supplies. The PB314A-RM focuses on DC-UPS/battery charger functionality; the PB362 is a pure regulated AC/DC power supply. Contact Powerbox for a direct comparison based on your application.
