Product Description
Female 5.5x2.1mm DC barrel pigtail with 50cm red/black leads for extending power runs to analogue HD-TVI/AHD/CVI and hybrid CCTV cameras.
Key specs
- Barrel size: 5.5mm OD x 2.1mm ID — matches standard DC jacks on analogue and hybrid camera pigtails/adaptors.
- Wire: 18-20AWG, red (positive centre) / black (negative barrel), polarity-coded for crimp, solder or Wago termination.
- Rating: 12-24VDC, 2A max — sized for single-camera loads or short parallel feeds off rack PSUs.
- Lead length: 50cm, longer than the 15cm variant — useful for junction box-to-camera runs or PSU distribution panels in a rack.
- Ends: pre-stripped, for direct integration with siamese cable power pairs or a central DC bus.
- Insulation: PVC, rated for indoor/outdoor use inside IP65+ enclosures and conduit.
Where it fits on the job
This female pigtail accepts male DC plugs from camera leads or adaptors, letting installers extend a run without re-terminating the camera end. It's suited to multi-camera installs where power is distributed from a rack-mounted PSU, alongside 2-core security flex or RG59/RG6 siamese cable carrying combined video/power. Termination options — crimp, solder or lever-nut block — cover most panel and enclosure layouts used during commissioning.
