what does 48v mean on interface

What does 48v mean on an audio interface? The interface has a button that reads “48v” and means that it requires this voltage. Normally, 48v is used to send phantom power from a mixing desk or pre amp to a microphone. Although condenser microphones are most commonly compatible with this voltage, some DI boxes may require higher voltage. It’s switched on by pressing a 48v button.
