Vangelis Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I’m am pretty green, knowledge wise regarding networks, but I am learning. I have TRENDnet TEG-S50g switch that’s DC input is rated at 5V /1A. I am looking replacing the cheesy switching power supply with a linear supply. I want something better the than the stock PS but still want something cost effective. I may buy a far better one down the road but I would like to hear that a linear supply will sound better. Can anyone recommend one. Sometimes I’ve seen specs on voltage, amperage and watts. With something like a switch do I have to pay attention to watts?

elan120 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 When it comes to linear power supply in the 5V/1A range, the choices are many, it really depend on what your budget is and how good the quality you want to get. As far as your other question : 50 minutes ago, Vangelis said: With something like a switch do I have to pay attention to watts? The formula to calculate the power, which is measure in watts, is "P = V x I", so when looking at the 5V/1A spec, wattage is 5(V) x 1(A) = 5W(atts). vgrubb 1 Link to comment
