Description

These 100 packs of 12V DC Female Power Connector adapters are a good solution for UK installers and hobbyists to have when they need to connect 12V-powered devices. All connectors will have 5.5mm (outer) X 2.1mm (inner) barrel sizes – the typical 5.5mm (outer) x 2.1mm (inner) sizes of CCTV cameras, LED light strips, and DIY electronics power cables. These female jacks are made of nickel-plated H65 copper contacts and a corrosion-resistant and high-temperature PVC housing.

The screw terminals built into the connector, in practice, allow you to clamp the power wires, and you do not have to solder them. The unit is small (when compared to 38x14x12 mm) but durable enough with a life of more than 500 plug-in cycles. It is rated at a maximum of 18 V and 2 A (tested at 1000 V capacity) and can safely operate most low-voltage systems. If more current is required (i.e., longer runs of LEDs), versions accommodate up to 6A with 12 V/24 V.

Specifications of 12 V DC Female Power connector:

  • Type of connector: 12V DC Female power connector (5.5 × 2.1mm barrel jack) – a centre-positive, weather-resistant connector type.
  • Dimensions: Barrel outer 0.55mm, inner 0.21mm; total size of the barrel is approximately 38 x 14 x 12 mm to fit easily.
  • Electrical Rating: 2A maximum 12 V DC (supports 24 V models) High-power models operate 6A LED/CCTV.
  • Construction: PVC housing and nickel-surged copper contacts make them durable; they can have more than 500 insertions and conform to the RoHS/REACH safety standards.
  • Installation: Screw-clamp connections enable the wiring to be done without tools; simply snap in the DC plug and screw it.
  • Characteristics: 100 Pack: 12V DC Female Power connector adapter jacks (5.5 x 2.1 mm), 1 bulk package, perfect for installer and prototype applications.

Compatibility & Usage

Ideal for LED strip lights, routers and DIY electronics. Ideal for UK CCTV cameras. Every 12V DC Female Power Connector goes straight into the corresponding 12V power sources and adapters. These adapters are used to add length or fix DC power leads of security cameras, LED lighting and other 12V DC appliances.

Your email address will not be published. Required fields are marked *

What is the difference between the Male and Female DC connector?

The Female DC connector features the “barrel” opening designed to receive a Male plug. In most power setups, the Female jack is attached to the device or the end of a cable run to create a power input port. These are essential for converting “raw” two-core wire into a standard 12V port that any 2.1mm power adapter can plug into.

Why is the “Solderless” screw terminal design important?

It completely removes the need for a soldering iron, which is a massive time-saver for high-volume projects. Each connector has a green screw terminal block with clearly marked “+” and “-” terminals. You simply strip your power cable, insert the copper into the slots, and tighten. This creates a secure, vibration-proof connection in seconds, even while standing on a ladder during a CCTV install.

Will these work with my LED strip lights and CCTV cameras?

Yes, these use the industry-standard 2.1mm x 5.5mm dimensions. This is the universal size for 99% of 12V and 24V DC electronics, including LED strip controllers, security cameras, DVRs, and guitar pedal power supplies. If your power “brick” has a standard round plug, these female adapters are the perfect matching partner.

What is the maximum voltage and current these jacks can handle?

While typically used for 12V DC, these heavy-duty connectors are rated for up to 36V and can safely handle a current of up to 5 amps. This makes them robust enough for high-brightness LED arrays and long-distance CCTV runs where power draw might be higher than average.

Are these 100-packs suitable for professional installers?

Absolutely. Buying a 100-pack is the most cost-effective solution for professionals. It ensures you have a consistent, high-quality supply for large-scale commercial installations. The connectors are made from high-impact plastic and non-corrosive metal, meaning they won’t fail or snap during installation, reducing the need for expensive “callback” repairs

Can I use these connectors to extend a power cable?

Yes, they are perfect for this. If your power adapter’s cable is too short, you can attach one of these female jacks to a length of two-core wire, and a male jack to the other end. This allows you to create a custom-length extension lead that perfectly fits your specific room layout without any messy splicing or tape.
