Need to replace an old AT power supply in a 2U chassis with something a bit more current. The power supply is mounted in the front of the chassis, with the cables and power to the rear. There is actually an extension cable that connects the power to the 110v wall.

A couple pictures. Anyone know what type of power supply I'm looking for? (or this was some sort of goofy one off, and it is time to pull out the soldering iron/dremel)

Talk about a horrible design.

"Engineer 1(Jeb)" : Hey Cletus, how's this design look?
"Engineer 2 (Cletus)": Looks good to me. As long as everything fits it is a winner.

Years later - 8 year old who opens up the machine - What the?!?!?!?! Who designs these things? I want to punch them in the face.

Basically, that looks like a very proprietary design.

I would get a regular AT power supply and mount it 90 degrees different then the current one.

Of course the power plug will be coming out the side of the case, but it doesn't look like there is really any room to mount it somewhere else.

Pics of the whole inside of the system may help give me a different idea though.
