I've been having trouble finding a good answer for this via searches, so my apologies if this question has been answered already.
I'm planning to use a WS-12-250-DC switch, tower-mounted in a weather proof box and powered by a figure-eight cable with an AC power supply in a comms rack inside the building.
The question is - what AC-DC power supply would I use indoors to power the switch on the mast? I can't find anything approaching the 250W capacity of the WS-12-250-DC and I'm planning to power quite a number of radios from this switch.
Thanks!

I would use (2) or (4) 12V AGM Batteries in series for 24V or 48V and a battery charger.
The idea of the DC switch and its design is to hook to batteries.

That doesn't sound like a terrible idea, it would end up basically having a 'free' UPS?
