Adaptor cable for barrel-to-USB power
This 12 cm cable converts a 5.5×2.1 mm barrel jack into a USB-A female port so a standard barrel power supply can run or charge USB devices. The wire has a 4 mm outer diameter and female-to-female connectors for simple camera or accessory installations. It is a passive adaptor with no voltage regulation built in. Polarity and voltage must match the connected equipment.
Suits installers needing USB power from a barrel
Technicians fitting IP cameras, LED strips or similar gear that draw 5 V from a USB plug can use this cord with an existing barrel-output supply. It is not for devices that require Quick Charge, Power Delivery or any negotiated voltage above 5 V. Users needing longer reach, higher current or regulated output should choose a different solution.
Handles low-power 5 V USB loads within 12 cm
The short length keeps voltage drop minimal for typical 5 V peripherals such as small cameras or sensors. The 4 mm cable diameter limits current capacity so high-draw devices like tablets or power-hungry hubs may exceed its safe rating. The barrel jack accepts only 5.5 mm outer and 2.1 mm inner dimensions; other sizes will not connect.

Questions about this item
What barrel connector size must my power adapter have to fit the 5.5x2.1mm jack on this cord?
The cord accepts a 5.5mm outer diameter and 2.1mm inner diameter barrel plug, so your adapter must match those exact dimensions.
Will this 12cm extension reach from my wall-wart power supply to a USB device on a nearby shelf?
At 4.72 inches including both plugs, it is designed for short, tidy connections close to the power source.
How can I confirm the cable is delivering power to my USB device after I plug everything in?
The connected USB device should show its normal charging indicator or power-on light, confirming the barrel-to-USB path is live.
