Test conditions and notes7
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at normal input (C:48Vdc , D:110Vdc) , rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
  3. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
  5. 5. 3 seconds max., please refer to peak loading curves.
  6. 6. The power supply is considered as an independent unit, but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
  7. 7. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ

Can I use the DDR-120C-12 to step down a 48V DC bus to 12V for edge computing devices?

Yes. The DDR-120C-12 accepts 33.6–67.2V DC input, which covers standard 48V DC distribution systems. It outputs 12V at up to 10A (120W), providing enough power for edge servers, mini PCs, or embedded computing nodes mounted on DIN rail in a network or telecom cabinet.

Is the DDR-120C-12 suitable for powering 12V peripherals in a 48V data center rack?

The DDR-120C-12 is designed for exactly this type of DC-DC conversion. With a 33.6–67.2V input range around a nominal 48V bus, it delivers 12V at 10A for fans, sensors, BMC modules, or other 12V accessories. The 4KVdc input-to-output isolation keeps the 12V side separated from the bus.

Can this converter supply 12V to access control and intercom systems from a 48V building DC bus?

Yes. The DDR-120C-12 takes 33.6–67.2V input and produces 12V at up to 10A, which is more than sufficient for door controllers, card readers, intercoms, and electric strikes. The DIN rail form factor and 32mm width fit standard security panel enclosures.

How does the DDR-120C-12 differ from the DDR-120B-12 and DDR-120D-12?

All three output 12V at 10A (120W) and share the same physical dimensions. The key difference is input voltage range: the DDR-120B-12 accepts 16.8–33.6V (for 24V bus systems), the DDR-120C-12 accepts 33.6–67.2V (for 48V bus systems), and the DDR-120D-12 accepts 67.2–154V (for 110V DC bus systems). Choose the variant that matches your source DC bus voltage.

Will the DDR-120C-12 function reliably in an outdoor telecom cabinet with no climate control?

The DDR-120C-12 is rated for -40°C to +70°C operating temperature, with load derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve. The datasheet lists no IP rating, so for outdoor deployment mount it inside a weatherproof enclosure that shields it from rain and condensation (humidity rating 5-95% RH non-condensing).
