Two black barrel adapter cables 5.5mm x 2.5mm male to 5.5mm x 2.1mm male 60cm 18AWG

1185 5.5mm x 2.5mm to 5.5mm x 2.1mm DC power adapter cord 60cm 18AWG 2pcs

SKU CH-Q87K-50X14 MPN 1185

Connects 5.5 mm x 2.5 mm and 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm DC barrels with 60 cm 18 AWG cable, two per pack

  • Connects 5.5mm x 2.5mm plugs to 5.5mm x 2.1mm devices
  • 18AWG wire gauge handles higher current loads safely
  • 60cm cable length gives flexible placement for cameras or LED strips
  • Two cables per pack provide a spare or second connection
  • Male-to-male barrel connectors suit CCTV, router and DVR power inputs

Connector compatibility

This pack contains two DC power adapter cords that convert a 5.5mm x 2.5mm male barrel plug to a 5.5mm x 2.1mm male plug. Each cable measures 60cm and uses 18AWG wire rated for higher current. The cables carry power only and do not support data transmission.

Suitable uses and limits

The adapter suits installations where a device with a 2.1mm centre pin must connect to a 2.5mm socket, such as LED strips, CCTV cameras, DVRs, routers and monitors. It is not for users who need a 2.5mm-to-2.5mm link, a right-angle connector, a longer run or a cable that also carries a data signal.

Deciding specification

The critical detail is the centre-pin diameter change from 2.5mm to 2.1mm on a 5.5mm barrel; if your equipment requires the opposite polarity or a different pin size, this cable will not fit.

Questions about this item

Will the 5.5mm x 2.5mm male plug fit into my device's 5.5mm x 2.1mm jack?

The adapter has a 5.5mm x 2.5mm male plug on one end and a 5.5mm x 2.1mm male plug on the other, so it bridges those two barrel sizes directly.

How do I connect this 60cm 18AWG cord without reversing polarity?

Both ends are centre-pin positive; match the positive centre pin on each device before pushing the barrels fully home.

When should I replace the 18AWG cable in a permanent CCTV install?

Inspect the 18AWG wire and connectors yearly; replace the cord if the jacket cracks, pins loosen, or voltage drop appears at the camera.
