Purpose-built power cable
This USB male to 4.0x1.7mm barrel jack cable supplies 5V DC power from any standard USB 2.0 port to compatible cameras and small electronics. The 80cm length offers flexible placement without excess slack. Rated for up to 2A current, it suits devices that draw modest power from a USB source. Polarity is centre-positive, so check your device before connecting.
Build and daily handling
The cable uses a black plastic and metal construction with a standard USB Type-A plug on one end and a 4.0mm outer, 1.7mm inner diameter barrel connector on the other. No additional packaging is included, so the single cable arrives ready to route inside an enclosure or behind equipment. The fixed 80cm run means you cannot adjust length, but the slim profile eases cable management in tight spaces.
When the upgrade makes sense
This cord replaces a lost or damaged proprietary charger for hardware that accepts 5V via a 4.0x1.7mm jack, eliminating the need for a dedicated wall wart. It is not for devices that require higher voltages, different barrel sizes, or more than 2A of current. Buyers who need a longer run, a right-angle connector, or a locking barrel should look elsewhere.
