Example DC-DC power distribution systems include electronic communication device(s), a circuit breaker DIN rail adapted to receive a circuit breaker for providing electrical protection to the one or more electronic communication devices, and a DC-DC converter including a housing having a DIN rail mount, a voltage input and a voltage output. The DC-DC converter includes a DC-DC voltage converter circuit coupled between the voltage input and the voltage output, and a controller electrically coupled with the DC-DC voltage converter circuit. The DC-DC converter is mounted on the circuit breaker DIN rail via the DIN rail mount of the DC-DC converter housing, and the controller is configured to control the DC-DC voltage converter circuit to convert a DC voltage at the voltage input to a different DC voltage at the voltage output to supply power to the one or more electronic communication devices.

DC-DC converters having DIN rail mounts

Example DC-DC converters include a housing having at least two bullet terminals. The at least two bullet terminals are configured to mate with corresponding terminals in a DC bullet breaker panel. The converter also includes a DC-DC voltage converter circuit coupled between the at least two bullet terminals, and a controller coupled with the DC-DC voltage converter circuit. The controller is configured to control the DC-DC converter circuit to convert a DC input voltage at a first one of the at least two bullet terminals to a different DC output voltage at another one of the at least two bullet terminals. Methods of converting DC voltages using DC-DC converters having bullet terminals are also disclosed.
