I would not be concerned with the 230Vac distance, for this low power draw any appreciable distance is negligible. (120Wdc = 0.5A @ 240Vac + cable and conversion losses)


The 12 output is of real concern. this needs to be as short a run as possible with as large a gauge of cable as possible. And ideally you want to be powering a bit higher than 12v to ensure you overcome any voltage drop in the 12v cable, and the power supply needs to be able to maintain out put when the slew motors kick in.
I routinely power my setup at 13.5Vdc without issue.
