UAD-2 Satellite FireWire Power Supply Specifications & Purchase Info

It is highly recommended to always use the original power supply that came with your UAD-2 Satellite FireWire or a factory replacement. However, if your power supply fails or is lost and you need to get through a session, you can use a generic replacement power supply that matches the original power supply's specifications as a temporary solution.

Important: Universal Audio is not responsible for any damage caused by using a non-factory power supply.

Here's what you'll need to consider when picking up a generic replacement power supply for your UAD-2 Satellite FireWire:

  • Make sure that the replacement power supply matches the specifications of the original power supply exactly. Do not use a replacement power supply that does not provide the correct output voltage or current, or does not match the polarity of the original.
  • The exact specifications of the UAD-2 Satellite FireWire power supply are:

Output: 12VDC
Current Draw: 1250mA
