Default Full wave rectifier with a smoothing capacitor

It will remain the same polarity if you feed dc into the input if that is
what you are asking, it will be the volts in minus the .6v in each
conducting diode one assumes, indeed if you are using dc and only using the
bridge so you can connect any old dc any way around, you don't need the
capacitor at all.

Am I correct in saying that it does not matter if there is a LN reversal
on the input?

It will always have a correct +/- DC voltage.
