Product Description
A DC 2.1mm male plug that terminates onto a screw block instead of a soldered tip. Positive and negative conductors go under two screws inside the plug body, so there's no soldering iron or heat-shrink needed on site.
The plug end is sized 5.5mm x 2.1mm, the outer/inner diameter pairing used on CCTV camera power inputs, DVR power supplies and low-voltage LED drivers. Before fitting, check the socket on your camera or PSU is that same 5.5mm x 2.1mm size — it won't seat otherwise.
Where this earns its keep
- Extending a run: cut a cable, strip both conductors, land them on the screws — no crimping tools required.
- Repairing a damaged lead: replace a chewed or crushed plug end without cutting back to a joint box.
- Building leads to length: make up exact cable runs for camera or LED installs rather than buying fixed lengths.
Fitting notes
Space is tight inside camera housings and junction boxes. Because termination is screw-down rather than soldered, you can make the connection with the plug already sitting in an enclosure — useful where there's no room to work a soldering iron.
Rated for 12V DC use, matching standard CCTV camera and LED power supplies.
