Note, that RB500 supports power jack/header for 6..22V, use standart low voltage power supply adapter.

Use at least a 15W power supply, if you're planning on heavily utilizing the board. The power requirement for just the bare board is something like 6W (check the manual to be sure), so if you add a high power card (SR2/5) you'll need another 4-6W, and 1-3W for a lower powered card (R52, CM9)
