Where it fits on a job
Use it for short runs inside junction boxes, PSU enclosures, or at the camera end where you're breaking into a DC line without soldering. The pre-terminated barrel connector and colour-coded tails let you match polarity fast when wiring into a distribution box or splitting a multi-way PSU output.
Install note
On longer camera runs, voltage drop at the DC input can cause IR flicker or no image at night — check the PSU rating and cable run length if a camera fed via this lead misbehaves after dark. This 30 cm lead itself is intended as a short connector, not a long-distance run.

Frequently Asked Questions
What connector does this cable use?
A standard DC barrel female connector, terminated to red (positive) and black (negative) wires.
What voltage is it rated for?
It's designed for 12V DC power supplies, as used in typical CCTV camera installations.
How long is the lead?
30 cm, intended for short connections such as inside junction boxes or PSU enclosures rather than long cable runs.
Why might a camera flicker or lose image at night after wiring in this lead?
This is usually a power supply issue — insufficient or unstable voltage causes IR flicker at night, so check your PSU rating and overall cable run length.
