    Carlos,

      I've seen a couple of systems made by Concurrent that look like
those. I think the Concurrents use a power supply brick that puts out
something like 36VDC. The power supplies seem to be scarce, i've only seen
one of them. I don't know anything else about the Concurrent systems, sorry.
