After purchasing your security cameras, one of the many things people do not think of is about how to run power to their security cameras. You will need a secondary solution for running power. We just wrote a blog about how to do that a day ago. However, this post is more about our power adapters. A power adapter is a mechanism that assist you with establishing a run of power to your security camera.
If you are going to use a power adapter other than the factory power supply, you will need to convert to a new solution. We suggest using RG59 coaxial cable with an 18×2 power pair. This is a solution with both video and power in one casing. Here is where you will need a power adapter. To accomplish running power to your security camera you will need to connect the ends of the 18×2 pair the positive (red) and the negative (black). You will have to “crimp” or “tighten” down the wire to make the connection. When finished you will have a very clean finish. This solution is how you are to supply power to your security cameras with out the “original” power supply adapter. Consider this an after-market-solution, but a good one. Going with this solution will solve problems with running extra cable for video and power, locating cameras free of wall-outlets, and a very clean installation finish.
