DC power plug for CCTV installs
This male 2.1 × 5.5 mm barrel connector terminates DC power cables for security cameras and similar low-voltage equipment. The screw-terminal design removes the need for tape, splicing or crimping, so a small screwdriver is the only tool required. It suits installers who want a tidy, professional finish on every camera run.
Screw terminals replace tape and crimps
The PVC-and-metal housing encloses two captive screws that clamp bare wire ends directly, eliminating electrical tape, splice kits and crimp tools from the job bag. Connection time drops because each joint is made and inspected in one step, and the mechanical grip resists vibration better than a twisted-and-taped joint. Installers who already carry crimp lugs or prefer soldered joints gain no advantage from this adapter.
Rated 20 A at 1–38 V
The connector is specified for a maximum continuous current of 20 A across the full 1 V to 38 V operating range, so the single deciding figure is whether the camera circuit stays within that current limit. Exceeding 20 A will overheat the terminals regardless of voltage, and the adapter cannot be used on mains-voltage or higher-current DC distribution. No other specification in the data sheet overrides this ampacity ceiling.

Questions about this item
Does the screw-terminal block on this 2.1 x 5.5 mm plug need periodic re-tightening?
The connector uses screw terminals that accept a small screwdriver; no soldering or crimping is required, so terminals can be re-tightened if vibration loosens them over time.
What is the maximum continuous current the 20 A rating allows before the PVC housing becomes a limit?
The adapter is rated for 20 A at 1 V–38 V; sustained loads near that ceiling will warm the PVC-and-metal body, so derate for enclosed runs.
How warm does the metal centre pin get when the adapter carries 20 A all day?
At the full 20 A rating the metal contacts and surrounding PVC will rise noticeably above ambient; ensure airflow around the 3.8 cm barrel to dissipate heat.
