Product Description
A 5.5mm/2.1mm DC connector pair covers the barrel size fitted to most 12V DC CCTV cameras, DVRs and NVRs. The set includes one male plug and one matching female jack, both with screw-terminal cable-mount contacts rather than soldered pins.
Where this fits on a job
Use it when a barrel connector snaps or crushes on site — repair the run instead of re-terminating the whole cable. Use it when a camera position moves and the existing 12V DC lead needs extending. Use it when building custom power leads from bulk two-core cable and PSU stock instead of waiting on pre-terminated leads.
Key specs
- Connector type: DC 2.1mm male plug and female jack pair
- Diameter: 5.5mm outer, 2.1mm inner — the standard CCTV DC barrel size
- Termination: cable-mount screw contacts (no soldering required)
- Voltage: 12V DC
- Compatible with: CCTV cameras, DVRs, NVRs, and LED power systems
Selection note
Because termination is screw-clamp rather than soldered, this pair suits first-fix and repair work where a soldering iron isn't practical on site. It pairs naturally with bulk 12V DC cable and PSUs when assembling made-to-length power runs for a new camera layout, rather than relying only on manufacturer-supplied leads.

Does it need soldering?
No, termination is by cable-mount screw contacts inside the shell, so conductors are clamped rather than soldered.
What's included in the set?
One DC male plug and one matching female jack, giving a complete plug-and-socket pair for a single power connection.
What can I use this connector pair for?
It's suited to repairing a damaged CCTV power connector, extending an existing 12V DC power cable, or building custom power leads for cameras, DVRs, NVRs and LED power systems.
