Abstract: A power transmission system is disclosed comprising a centralized power supply system having multiple DC power supply units and a controller coupled to the DC power supplies. Remote devices are coupled to the centralized power system via a power cable. In some embodiments, each of the DC power supply units transmit signal information to respective ones of the remote devices, and the remote devices may be configured to forward the signal information to the controller. In some embodiments, the controller module automatically allocates individual ones of the DC power supply units to the respective ones of the remote devices based on the forwarded signal information.
