Product Information

Full details

This Kenable 2-meter right-angled DC power extension cable is designed for users needing to extend existing 2.5mm DC power connections, particularly for CCTV equipment and other 12V DC electronics. Its primary benefit is providing flexible device placement in tight spaces due to the space-saving right-angled connector and strain relief. A key consideration is ensuring your existing power adapter and device use the standard 5.5mm outer diameter and 2.5mm inner diameter barrel connectors for compatibility.

FAQs

What is the exact connector size of this cable?

This cable features a 5.5mm outer diameter and a 2.5mm inner diameter DC barrel connector.

Can this cable be used for data transfer?

No, this is a DC power extension cable and is only designed for carrying electrical power, not data.

What is the maximum current and voltage this cable can handle?

The cable has a high current capacity of up to 5.8A and is designed for 12V DC power supplies.

Will this cable work with my 5.5mm x 2.1mm power adapter?

This cable is specifically for 5.5mm x 2.5mm connectors. While a 2.5mm plug might sometimes fit loosely into a 2.1mm socket, it is not a guaranteed or secure connection and may cause issues. For 5.5mm x 2.1mm, you would need a cable with that specific size.

Is the right-angled connector suitable for all devices?

The right-angled connector is ideal for saving space and reducing strain in tight areas. However, ensure it does not obstruct other ports or the device's ventilation.

How long is the cable?

The cable is 2 meters (approximately 6.5 feet) in length.

What type of devices is this cable commonly used for?

It is commonly used for extending power to CCTV systems, IP cameras, DVRs, routers, LED lighting controllers, and other 12V DC powered electronics that utilize a 5.5mm x 2.5mm barrel connector.

Troubleshooting

Device not powering on after connecting the extension cable.

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged in. Verify that the original power adapter is functional and provides the correct voltage and amperage for your device. Double-check that your device and power adapter use the 5.5mm x 2.5mm connector size.

Intermittent power or flickering lights.

Check for loose connections at both the cable ends and the device. Ensure the cable is not damaged or excessively bent. Verify the power supply meets the device's requirements and the cable's current capacity (up to 5.8A at 12V DC).

Cable does not fit the power port.

Confirm that your device and power adapter have a 5.5mm outer diameter and 2.5mm inner diameter DC barrel connector. This cable is not compatible with other sizes, such as 5.5mm x 2.1mm, without an adapter.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Space-saving right-angled design is excellent for tight installations.
  • Extends reach, allowing for more flexible device placement.
  • Durable construction with strain relief for reliable connections.
  • High current capacity suitable for demanding applications.
  • Wide compatibility with standard 12V DC equipment.

Cons

  • Specific connector size (5.5mm x 2.5mm) requires checking compatibility.
  • Right-angled connector may not be suitable for all device ports.
  • Primarily for DC power extension, not for data transfer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Simply plug the male end of the extension cable into the female DC socket of your existing power adapter and connect the female end to your device's power input. Ensure a secure fit.

Compatibility:

This cable is designed for devices and power adapters with a 5.5mm outer diameter and 2.5mm inner diameter barrel connector. It is suitable for 12V DC power supplies. Verify your device's power input and adapter's output connector size before use. It is compatible with most CCTV systems, IP cameras, LED lighting, routers, and other 12V DC electronics requiring this connector size.

Care:

Keep the connectors clean and free from dust. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable. Store in a dry environment. For cleaning, use a dry or slightly damp cloth; never use solvents.
