Any isolated 48V supply works, just use the + wire for your return and the - for your -48v.
I'm fond of the meanwell hlg supplies. The only gotcha is that some supplies will tie the negative wire to the ground pin on the ac plug, forcing it to be a +48v supply. You can use an ohmmeter to verify that this connection doesn't exist. Measure from the ground pin to the - output without the supply powered on. Shouldn't show continunity.
