There's no PSU in the box. I've got the enclosure as well! It's one of these

In the back all the blades are connected to an interconnect power regulator
board that goes to two large round prongs the kind used in
20 AMP 220/240 V AC plugs. But right now I'm 99% sure right now that this
works with 48VDC. The blades have tiny power regulator boards next to the
(proprietary?) blade power connector...  and on the internal side of such
connector the markings say "48V" for the white wire and "0V" for the black
wire.
