DELOCK DC extension cable 5.5 x 2.5 mm plug to jack with M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread waterproof 18 AWG, 1 m

DELOCK DC extension cable 5.5 x 2.5 mm plug to jack with M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread waterproof 18 AWG, 1 m is a sealed DC power extension designed to provide a reliable threaded connection between power adapters and DC-powered equipment. The cable pairs a standard 5.5 x 2.5 mm DC plug with a matching jack and adds an M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread coupling to form a water-resistant interface. With 18 AWG conductors and a one-metre length, it is intended to deliver stable low-voltage power in installations where a secure, moisture-resistant connection is required.

Advantages

The cable combines a common 5.5 x 2.5 mm DC connector form factor with an M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread, which increases mechanical security and helps protect against accidental disconnection. The waterproof design reduces the risk of moisture ingress at the junction, and the 18 AWG conductor gauge supports effective power transmission with lower voltage drop over the one-metre span. The fixed length and straightforward plug-to-jack configuration make the product easy to install in both temporary and permanent setups.

Suitable for

• Extending power to surveillance cameras and network equipment requiring 5.5 x 2.5 mm DC connectors
• Indoor and outdoor installations where a threaded, water-resistant DC connection is needed
• Fixed or semi-fixed mounting situations where mechanical retention of the DC connection is important

When it may not be suitable

This cable is intended for low-voltage DC power extension and is not suitable for high-voltage, high-current, or data transmission applications. If your device uses a different DC connector size, polarity, or a different thread standard, this cable will not be compatible. The one-metre length may be insufficient where longer runs are required.

Key specifications

• Connector type: 5.5 x 2.5 mm DC plug to matching 5.5 x 2.5 mm jack with M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread coupling
• Cable length: 1 m
• Conductor gauge: 18 AWG
• Construction: water-resistant/threaded coupling for improved sealing
• Colour: black

How to use

Align the 5.5 x 2.5 mm plug with the device or adapter jack and insert it fully. Engage the M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread coupling by rotating the threaded collar until hand-tight to create a water-resistant seal. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it where necessary to reduce strain on the connectors. For removal, unscrew the threaded coupling and withdraw the plug gently.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that your device uses a 5.5 x 2.5 mm DC connector with compatible polarity
• Ensure an M12 x 1.75 mm screw thread coupling is required or supported by your equipment
• Verify that a 1 m cable length and 18 AWG conductor gauge meet your voltage drop and routing needs

Usage recommendations

Use the cable in environments matching its water-resistant specification and avoid prolonged submersion. Periodically inspect the threaded coupling and cable jacket for damage, and ensure connections are hand-tight but not over-torqued to maintain the seal without stressing the connector.
