Product Description
A 30cm male-to-stripped-end DC pigtail for extending power from a PSU to a camera's female barrel jack. One end terminates in a 5.5mm OD x 2.1mm ID male barrel plug (centre positive), matching the female DC jacks fitted on analogue HD-TVI, AHD and CVI cameras. The other end is pre-stripped red/black wire, ready for screw terminals, crimps or Wago connectors — no soldering on site.
Key specs
- Connector: 5.5x2.1mm male barrel plug, one end
- Termination: pre-stripped red (positive) / black (negative) leads
- Wire: 18AWG pure copper
- Rating: 2-5A at 12-24VDC
- Length: 30cm
- Insulation: flame-retardant PVC
Where it fits
30cm suits junction box-to-PSU wiring or rack power distribution layouts — long enough to bridge an offset, short enough to keep runs tidy on a patch panel or terminal block. Colour-coded leads remove any guesswork on polarity when wiring into screw terminals or lever-nut blocks.
Compatibility
Mates with female DC jacks on Hikvision/Dahua and other analogue HD-TVI/AHD/CVI cameras using standard 5.5x2.1mm connectors, alongside siamese cable or rack-mount DC supply installs. Supports single-camera feeds or parallel wiring across multi-channel systems within the stated 2-5A rating.
