FAQs

What type of power supply should I use?

You should use a power supply that matches the voltage requirements of your devices (e.g., 12V or 5V) and has sufficient wattage to power all devices connected to the splitter. The power supply must have a male DC 2.1mm connector.

What is the length of the splitter cable?

The splitter cable is approximately 30cm long.

Can I use this with any type of CCTV camera?

The splitter is designed for use with CCTV cameras. However, always check the power requirements and connector compatibility (2.1mm DC) of your specific camera model before use.

What happens if I connect devices that exceed the power supply's capacity?

If you exceed the power supply's capacity, the power supply may overload and shut down, or the devices may not function correctly. It is essential to ensure that the total power draw of all connected devices does not exceed the power supply's wattage rating.

Is the splitter weatherproof?

The splitter is not specifically designed to be weatherproof. Avoid using it in environments exposed to moisture or extreme weather conditions.

What is the connector size?

The splitter uses a 2.1mm DC connector.

How do I clean the splitter?

Clean the splitter with a dry cloth. Do not use liquids or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Devices not receiving power.

Check the power supply connection and ensure it's turned on. Verify all device connections and that the total power draw does not exceed the power supply's capacity. Check the polarity of the devices.

One or more devices are not working.

Check the individual device connections to ensure they are secure. Test each device directly with the power supply to rule out device failure. Check the power rating of each device to ensure it's within the power supply's capabilities.

Poor video quality or device malfunction (CCTV).

Ensure the power supply provides enough power for all connected devices. Check the power supply and splitter for any damage. Try connecting devices individually to rule out a faulty device.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Connecting the Splitter: Connect the male DC 2.1mm connector of the splitter to your power supply. Then, connect your devices to the five female DC 2.1mm outputs.
  2. Compatibility: Ensure your devices use a 2.1mm DC connector. This splitter is commonly used with CCTV equipment, but it's important to verify compatibility.
