12 Volt Power supply for MX68CW

This is an odd request but has anyone used an MX68cw in a mobile environment running off a 12 volt power supply i.e. automotive voltage?

According to the specifications on the Meraki web site, the MX68CW has a 100 watt power supply.

How about using a 12 Volt DC to 110 Volt AC inverter? You can get 200 to 300 watt inverters for less than $40.

All the PoE models needs a 54V supply.

 

All the non PoE models use a 12V supply.  Examples are MX64 and MX67.

 

 

I've used the MX64W of a 12V supply in a marine application.

As far as I can tell, the output specs, as @PhilipDAth posted, are DC 54V 1.85A.

The manufacturer of the power supply is Universal Microelectronics Co. Ltd, Taiwan.

 

This looks suitable - https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/embedded-switch-mode-power-supplies-smps/7718477/ (caveat, whilst the label says Electrical & Electronic, I'm not Electrical). I usually deal with RS Germany near Frankfurt, they have knowledgeable pre-sales engineers (one of the joys of dealing with German businesses).

Did you use a DC to DC stabilizer/filter? If so what device did you use and what are the rated Voltage, Amps and Wattage?

 

Thanks !!!
