Securview · 5V DC · 1A plug-pack
A plain 5V supply.
5V DC. 1A. 1.5 m lead.
The PS5VDC1A is a 5V DC, 1A plug-pack: Australian pins on the case, 110 to 240V AC in, and a 1.5 m lead ending in a DC plug. It suits small 5V devices that draw 1A or less.
In one sentence: the PS5VDC1A is a Securview 5V DC, 1.0A plug-pack power supply with Australian pins, a 110 to 240V AC input and a 1.5 m lead ending in a DC plug, for small 5V devices drawing 1A or less.
Check the plug and polarity before you buy.
The maker does not publish the DC plug size. Before you order, compare it with your device's socket and old adaptor, or ask us to measure it. The label in our photos shows centre positive; check your device takes the same. Only use it on equipment that needs 5V DC: plugging a 5V supply into a 12V device will not run it, and the wrong polarity can damage it.
In the box- PS5VDC1A 5V 1A plug-pack with 1.5 m DC lead
You also need- A device that takes 5V DC, 1A or less, on a matching plug
- A power point
Match three things and it works.
A replacement adaptor has to match the voltage (5V DC), the polarity and the plug, and give at least the current the device draws. This one supplies up to 1A (1000 mA), so it suits devices whose label or old adaptor says 5V and 1A or less.
Plug-pack
Plugs straight into the wall.
The Australian pins are part of the case, so there is no separate mains cord. The DC lead runs 1.5 m from the plug-pack to your device.
The DC plug
DC plug on a 1.5 m lead.
The lead ends in a barrel-type DC plug. The maker does not publish its size, so check it against your device or ask us before you buy.
The label
5V DC, 1A, centre positive.
The label in our photo reads input 100 to 240V AC, 50/60Hz, 0.5A and output 5V DC, 1A, with the centre positive symbol. The maker's figure for the input is 110 to 240V AC, which covers Australian mains.
How it goes in
Check, plug in, done.
01
Read the old label
Your device or its old adaptor must say 5V DC, and 1A (1000 mA) or less.
02
Check plug and polarity
Compare the plug with your device's socket and check the polarity symbol matches centre positive. Ask us if unsure.
03
Connect the device
Push the DC plug fully into the device's power socket.
04
Plug in and check
Plug the supply into a power point, switch on and check the device powers up normally.

Need 9V instead?
The PS9VDC1A is the 9V DC, 1A version of this plug-pack, with the same 1.5 m lead.
12V gear
12V 1A or 2A plug-packs
Most CCTV cameras run on 12V DC. Our 12V 1A and 2A plug-packs have a 2.1 mm centre positive plug.

Common questions
What does it output?
5V DC at up to 1.0A (1000 mA), which is 5W.
What size is the DC plug?
Confirm with us. The maker does not publish the plug size. Send us your device model or a photo of the socket and we will check it before you buy.
Is it centre positive?
The label in our product photos shows the centre positive symbol. Check your device asks for the same, and confirm with us if the symbol on your device is different.
Will it run a 12V CCTV camera?
No. Standard CCTV cameras need 12V DC. Use one of our 12V plug-packs instead.
My device needs 5V 0.5A. Can I use this 1A supply?
Yes, if the voltage, polarity and plug match. A device only draws the current it needs, so a higher current rating is fine.
My device needs 5V 2A. Will this work?
No. It can only supply 1A, so the device may not start or may reset under load. Ask us for a higher-current supply.
Is it a USB charger?
No. It has a barrel-type DC plug, not a USB socket or USB plug.
What input voltage does it take?
110 to 240V AC, 50/60Hz, so it runs from a standard Australian power point.
How long is the lead?
1.5 m from the plug-pack to the DC plug.
Is it approved for use in Australia?
Confirm with us. We do not have the approval details for this model on file to publish here.
What warranty does it have?
12 months, supported by InFront Technologies here in Australia.
Can I use it outdoors?
No. Plug it into an indoor power point and keep it dry.

Installation and safety
Mains powered. The plug-pack goes into a standard power point. Do not open the case or use it if the case or lead is damaged.
Match the voltage, polarity and plug. Only connect it to equipment that takes 5V DC with the same polarity and plug. The wrong voltage or polarity can damage equipment.
Do not overload it. The device must draw 1A or less.
Indoor use. Keep it dry and give it room to shed heat.
What it does not do. It is not a USB charger, a battery charger or a 12V supply.
Figures. From the maker's product details for this model and the rating label in our product photos. No manufacturer datasheet is published for it.
