Where it's used
This plug is intended for CCTV camera power runs, DVR/NVR power connections, LED lighting circuits, and other 12V DC distribution where a fixed lead needs to be made up to length on site. Its compact body is sized to fit inside junction boxes and camera enclosures, so it suits confined structured-cabling installs as well as open bench termination.
Compatibility
It mates with any device fitted with a standard 5.5mm outer diameter / 2.1mm inner diameter DC socket — the common barrel size on 12V CCTV cameras and power supplies. Confirm the socket size on your camera or PSU before specifying, as some equipment uses a different barrel diameter.
Installation
The push terminal is tool-free: strip the conductor, press the button, insert the wire, release. No crimping tool, screwdriver or soldering iron is needed, which speeds up multi-run installs.
