Genuine Netgear 2ABS060K, 332-11474-01 19V 3.16 A Power Supply
Im wanting to buy a Genuine Netgear 2ABS060K, 332-11474-01 19V 3.16 A Power Supply

Good news, my RAX200 is back online working using a modified Dell laptop PSU.
FYI: 7.4mm OD is the Ground, 5.0mm ID is the 19.0V dc, and the center pin I broke off is a 5.0V dc to keep the laptop charge while it's off.
Conclusion: All you need is a 60w PSU that provide 19V dc with a 7.4mm coax plug without the center pin. Thanks to schumaku for the idea of using an old laptop PSU, you saved me $30+ and a week waiting for it in the mail.

I'm looking for the same PSU for my RAX200 which out lost during the move.
What is special is the plug, it's a 7.4mm OD barrel without center PIN.
I've check ebay and Amazon and both show the 2ABS060K With Center Pin. So just being 19v @3.16A isn't going to work.
This is like buying a 2018 Camry that has 3 different size tires depend on the model trim you buy.

No, it's amazingly much more a common standard connector: It was originally designed for PCs requiring 60W, 90W, and 120W, often offered as PC ITX power supply as set Of course, there is a center contact, it's just designed different than the common barrel plugs.

You just gave me an excellent idea, I found my old Dell laptop PSU (19.0V @ 3.9amp) that has a 7.4mm OD x 5.0mm ID plug, all I need to do is break off the center pin and I have a working PSU. Standby.....

I presume if you break off the center pin, could make it so won't work.

nothing to break off - there is a protected center contactor. What you have in your hands is a 75 W power supply - perfectly fine.
