6V 2.5A AC-DC Power Supply - 2.1mm x 5.5mm Center Positive | SW-62A
Regulated 6V 2.5A AC-DC Switching Power Supply | Part SW-62A
Part SW-62A is a compact, regulated switching power supply with a wide 100–240V AC input range and a fixed 6V DC output at up to 2500mA (2.5A). It uses a 2.1mm x 5.5mm center-positive barrel connector. The wide voltage range refers to its AC input, not an adjustable DC output. Use it with compatible electronics only after checking the required DC voltage, current, connector size, and polarity.

Compatible Devices & Common Use Cases
Part SW-62A may be used as a replacement supply for equipment requiring 6V DC, a 2.1mm inner diameter x 5.5mm outer diameter barrel connector, and center-positive polarity, provided its current requirements, including startup demand, are within the supply’s 2.5A rating. Verify these requirements against the device label, original adapter, or manufacturer’s specifications before connecting.
Device categories such as networking equipment, cameras, LED lighting, audio equipment, hobby electronics, motors, and automation components do not establish compatibility on their own. No specific device or brand compatibility is claimed. This is a fixed-voltage DC supply, not an adjustable-output adapter or an AC-output transformer.
Why a Switching Power Supply?
The regulated switching design provides a controlled 6V DC output for compatible electronics within its specified input and load ratings. Do not exceed the 2.5A or 15W output limits, and ensure that the connector, wiring, and installation are suitable for the intended load.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this work with my router or network switch?
A: Only after confirming that your equipment requires 6V DC, uses a 2.1mm x 5.5mm center-positive connection, and has current requirements, including startup demand, within the supply’s 2.5A rating. A device’s brand or category alone does not establish compatibility.
Q: Will this work in countries outside the US?
A: The listed input is 100–240V AC, 50/60Hz. Verify that your local mains supply is within those ratings and that the physical outlet connection is suitable. A suitable plug adapter may be required. The DC output remains fixed at 6V.
Q: Is the output center positive or center negative?
A: Center positive (+). The inner contact of the 2.1mm x 5.5mm barrel connector is positive.
Q: My original adapter was 6V 1A, can I use this 2.5A supply?
A: A compatible device draws the current it needs, so a higher current capacity can be suitable. However, the device must require 6V DC, use a matching 2.1mm x 5.5mm connector and center-positive polarity, and remain within the supply’s ratings, including startup demand. Current capacity alone does not establish compatibility.
Q: Is this regulated?
A: Yes. This is a regulated switching power supply designed to maintain a 6V DC output within its specified input and load ratings.
