Product Description
A 50cm female DC pigtail extends power runs from PSU to camera on standard 5.5x2.1mm barrel connections. It fits analogue HD-TVI, AHD, CVI and hybrid cameras using the common DC jack.
Why the 50cm length
The extended lead suits junction box-to-camera wiring or PSU distribution panels in a rack, where the 15cm short version won't reach. That makes it the right pick for offices, warehouses and residential blocks where camera drops sit some distance from the power point.
Key specs
- Barrel size: 5.5mm OD x 2.1mm ID female connector
- Wire: Rated for 18-20AWG, with red for positive at the centre and black for negative on the barrel.
- Rating: 12-24VDC, 2A max — single camera loads or short parallel feeds from rack-mount PSUs
- Lead length: 50cm
- Ends: pre-stripped, ready for crimp, solder or Wago termination
- Insulation: PVC, rated for indoor/outdoor use within IP65+ enclosures and conduit runs
Fits alongside
The pre-stripped ends integrate with siamese cable power pairs or a central DC bus, useful when wiring multiple cameras from one PSU point in a rack or enclosure. Polarity is colour-coded throughout, so termination stays consistent across a multi-camera job.
Procurement note: confirm your camera's DC jack matches the standard 5.5x2.1mm barrel before ordering, and check total current draw against the 2A rating when feeding more than one device from a shared supply.

Frequently Asked Questions
What barrel size does this pigtail use?
5.5mm OD x 2.1mm ID, matching the DC jacks on standard analogue HD-TVI/AHD/CVI and hybrid cameras.
How much current can it carry?
It's rated 12-24VDC at 2A max, suited to a single camera load or short parallel feeds from rack-mount PSUs.
Why choose the 50cm length over the 15cm version?
The longer 50cm lead reaches further for junction box-to-camera wiring or PSU distribution panels in a rack, where the shorter 15cm variant won't stretch.
How do I terminate the wire ends?
The 18-20AWG ends are pre-stripped and colour-coded (red positive, black negative), ready for crimping, soldering or Wago termination to a PSU.
