• 48V 3.75A power supply with 4-pin DC lead
• Australian IEC mains lead

• Nothing else for a straight swap
• A mains power point near the recorder

01

Check the label

The old adaptor must read 48V (3.75A, or 1.5A on an 8-channel unit) with a round 4-pin plug. Older Swann DVRs with a 4-pin plug may use a different voltage.

02

Shut down and unplug

Shut the recorder down from its menu, then switch off at the wall and remove the old adaptor.

03

Line up the key

Turn the plug until its key matches the socket. It only fits one way. Never force it.

04

Power up

Fit the mains lead and switch on. The recorder boots and the PoE cameras reconnect.

Medical and lab

Non-patient equipment in clinics, hospitals and labs: computer carts, medical monitors, lab instruments and admin gear. It is not a medical-rated supply, so never use it on patient-connected devices.

Industrial and automation

A clean, regulated 48V, 180W source for stepper and servo drives, motion controllers, linear stages, CNC, test rigs and benches with a 4-pin DIN input.

Networking and PoE

Industrial and desktop PoE switches with a 48V 4-pin DIN input, powering Wi-Fi access points, IP phones, cameras and sensors.

Audio-visual and broadcast

48V broadcast and AV gear, and the PoE switches behind AV-over-IP encoders, conference cameras, Dante speakers and room panels.

Telecom and VoIP

48V DC equipment and PoE for phone systems. Check the polarity first: some telecom gear runs on negative 48V.

CCTV and security

The genuine Swann replacement for 16- and 8-channel 4-pin NVRs and kits, and the spare installers keep in the van.

8-channel

Want the exact 8-channel part?

Swann NVR8-8580, 8580RN, 8780 and 8600 ship with the 48V 1.5A 4-pin supply. This 3.75A supply also runs them, or choose the 1.5A one for a like-for-like swap.

Barrel plug

Swann NVR-7300, 7400 or 7285?

Those recorders have a round barrel socket, not 4 pins. They need our 48V barrel-plug supply instead.

Part check

Not sure which one?

Email a photo of your recorder's underside label and the old adaptor label to [email protected] and we will match it.

Will this fit my Swann NVR16-8580?

Yes. It is the 48V 3.75A round 4-pin supply the NVR16-8580, NVR16-8580RN and NVR-168580 use. Check your old adaptor reads 48V 3.75A and has the same 4-pin plug.

Which model numbers does this power supply suit?

Equipment with a 48V 4-pin DIN power input wired like this supply and drawing 3.75A or less. That includes TRENDnet TI-PG162, TI-PG62 and TI-PG743Bi industrial switches, ZyXEL GS1900-8HP and GS1900-10HP, the D-Link DIS-200G-12PSW, Datavideo HBT-11 and HBT-6, and Swann NVR16-8580, NVR16-8780 and SONVK kits. The full list is under Model numbers at the bottom of this page. Pin layouts differ between makers, so always compare yours with our pinout drawing first.

What is the pinout of the 4-pin plug?

Looking into the end of the plug with the key at the bottom, the upper two pins are +48V and the lower two pins are ground (0V). The same drawing is printed on the supply's label.

How do I check the supply with a multimeter?

Set the meter to DC volts, plug the supply into the mains, then touch the red probe to an upper pin and the black probe to a lower pin. It should read about 48V. Do not let the probes short two pins together.

Can I use it on my 8-channel Swann recorder?

Yes. The 8-channel NVR8-8580, 8580RN, 8780 and 8600 use a 48V 1.5A supply with the same 4-pin plug. The voltage matches and the recorder only draws the current it needs, so the 3.75A supply simply has more headroom.

Can I use the 1.5A supply on a 16-channel recorder instead?

No. A 16-channel recorder powering 16 PoE cameras needs the full 3.75A. On 1.5A it will restart or drop cameras, especially at night when the infrared lights come on.

Does it fit Swann NVR-7300 or NVR-7400 recorders?

No. Those recorders have a round barrel socket. They need our 48V barrel-plug supply, not this 4-pin one.

Will it work on an older Swann DVR, another brand, or non-CCTV equipment?

Only if your equipment takes 48V DC through the same round 4-pin plug with the same pin layout and draws 3.75A or less. Some older Swann DVRs used a 4-pin plug at a lower voltage, many monitors and POS terminals use the same plug at 12V or 24V, and some makers put the pins in a different order. Any of these can damage the equipment. Check first, or send us a photo of the label and we will confirm.

What are the cross-reference part numbers?

The supply model is CS-4803750. Swann labels for this supply also show FJ-SW2028A48003750 or FJ-SW2028A48003850.

Is this a genuine supply, and why not buy a cheap generic one?

Yes. This is the genuine supply Swann fits to these recorders, approved for use in Australia, and it comes with an Australian IEC mains lead. Cheap online 48V adaptors are often not RCM approved, can have the 4 pins in a different order, overstate their current, or drift off 48V under load. That can kill the recorder, its PoE ports or the hard drive, and a non-compliant mains supply is a fire and shock risk that insurers may not cover.

How do I know my old supply has failed?

Common signs are a recorder that will not turn on, restarts by itself, loses its hard drive, or drops PoE cameras when they switch to night mode. A new supply is the cheapest thing to rule out first.

Can I use it outdoors?

No. The label marks it for indoor use only. Keep it somewhere dry and ventilated, not inside a closed cupboard with the recorder sitting on it.
