It's actually a PSU from Delta Electronics INC, Delta Networks are just using
it inside of the Delta Networks TN48M-DN-P switch.
I checked the label on the PSU-s.

MFG_SERIAL is just a bunch of 0xf-s, but MFR_MODEL has something.
However, the Armada 7040 I2C adapter cannot do block reads although
it returns 11 bytes but it's just zeros.

This and one more as the non-PoE version of the TN48M-DN switch
has a single 150W PSU that does not support PMBus, but the CPLD
always provides presence information and Power Good status.
