What this adapter powers

The Mean Well GST60A12 delivers 12 volts at 5 amps for a total of 60 watts. It suits devices that draw up to that limit and accept a 5.5 mm by 2.5 mm barrel connector. The unit operates on 100 to 240 volt mains at 50 or 60 hertz, so it works worldwide with the correct cord. It is a direct replacement for equipment specifying this exact output and plug.

Build fit and clearance

The adapter connects to AC mains through the supplied power cord and feeds the load via the fixed 5.5x2.5 mm barrel plug. No additional converters or cables are required if the device matches this connector. The 1.4 amp input rating at full load keeps the draw modest on standard circuits. Overseas buyers should note that the mains cord is not included when shipped internationally.

Capacity and limits

At 60 watts the supply comfortably runs routers, small monitors, LED lighting strips and similar 12 volt gear. It cannot support loads that exceed 5 amps or require a higher voltage. The built-in protections guard against short circuit, over-voltage and internal overheating, but they do not extend the rated output. Devices needing more current or a different connector will need a separate power solution.

Questions about this item

How long before the 60 W output triggers the internal overheating protection?

The adapter includes safeguards against internal overheating, short circuit and incorrect voltage to protect connected equipment during sustained use.

What is the fan noise level when the unit runs continuously at 5 A?

No fan is mentioned in the specifications; the unit relies on passive cooling while delivering 12 V at 5 A.

Does the 5.5 x 2.5 mm barrel plug fit my device without an extra cable?

A power cord for the 100-240 V input is included with domestic orders; overseas shipments may not include it.
