No, but a search for 'power supply' should do the trick.

You are probably right. Not trying to change the discussion but IMHO,
if you really want tight regulation you should use the provided S+ and
S- terminals, and 4 wires will be pretty hard to get onto the type 'n'.
The attached photo does a pretty good job of making this clear. On the
left is the type 'n'. The photo doesn't do a very good job of showing
how truly flimsy the center pin connector is, and it's even on there
crooked. In the middle is a 'Philmore' 5.5x2.5ID which was a dollar
fifty, as well as the switchcraft on the right which was seventy five
cents (local surplus). New switchcrafts are actually less than five
dollars, and well worth the hassle of ordering/waiting- again IMHO.
