Voltage level and power output

48V power supply: With a voltage of 48 volts, it is commonly used for communication equipment, data centers, and industrial equipment. 

At the same current, a 48V system can provide higher power, making it suitable for applications with high power output.

24V power supply: With a voltage of 24 volts, it is commonly used in automotive electronics, industrial control, and low-voltage equipment. 

Suitable for applications that require frequent start stop or quick response.

System design impact

48V power supply: Due to the high voltage, higher insulation requirements and stricter voltage regulation need to be considered in the design. 

More complex power management circuits may be required to ensure stability and safety.

24V power supply: The design is relatively simple, with low requirements for insulation and voltage regulation, making it suitable for cost sensitive applications.

Actual application performance

48V power supply: performs better in long-distance transmission, with higher voltage and lower current, reducing resistance losses in the line, 

suitable for large data centers or industrial facilities.

24V power supply: It has more advantages in applications that require frequent start stop or quick response, such as automotive electronics, 

and can better adapt to voltage fluctuations.

Security

48V power supply: Higher voltage means higher risk of electric shock, requiring more safety measures such as better insulation and circuit protection.

24V power supply: Low risk of electric shock and relatively simple safety measures.

Cost factors

48V power supply: may require more expensive components and more complex circuit designs, resulting in higher overall costs.

24V power supply: Low cost, suitable for applications that do not require high power output.

Summary: Choosing 48V or 24V power supply should be based on specific application requirements. 48V power supply is suitable for high-power output 

and long-distance transmission, while 24V power supply has more advantages in cost and system complexity, suitable for low voltage and fast response applications.
