FIY, the original telecom rack equipment been standardised on 48V since time immemorial.

So, at 48V you can simply use off the shelf telecom power supplies

I've been trying to find cheap 48v power supplies for 1A and less telcom gear, but they seem to be pretty spendy. Cheaper to buy old gear that includes the PSU than order the PSU itself.
