Can I use this cable to supply power from a dvr to a security camera?

These cables are crap, to put it succintly. They are not cat5. I dont know if they can handle POE (Power Over Ethernet) but i wouldnt count on it.

No. This is for supplying power and data to a POE device. I use it for POE cameras.

I use a portable hard drive (segate) with my setup and works fine. This way you only need one power source ( for the DVR.

no, they get there power from the DVR, by way of the cable that runs from DVR to the cameras.

No you can not use it from BNC camera to cat 5 DVR input with this. This is BNC to BNC and the cat 5 is the cable in between the connectors.

Yeah. If you had a non-PoE camera you would want a splitter to split thet data from the power since you would power it with a wall wart or something besides CAT 5/6. If your switch does not provide PoE to the camera you can use a PoE injector to provide power and data to the camera and back to your DVR or whatever. Hope this helps.

yes, on the dvr side the cable splits, one connection to the dvr, a second connection to a small transformer which plugs in to 110v.

If your home security DVR has a VGA out (I'm assuming it does) then yes you can do as you asked. You would connect your VGA cables from your DVR and your computer to the 2 VGA inputs on the switch box and then you would connect the VGA output to your monitor. If your DVR does not have VGA out you could still do it but you would need an additional converter box to convert your DVR output to VGA.

I haven't tried it for that, but the specs say it should work. Alternatively you can use an Active USB extension cable to power a dropcam.

Yes. the cable runs both the camera and then the power, 2 conectors at the camera end and the same at the DVR, I would recomend this system and rate it a 4, due to iphone interface i wanted, but i will get it right soon, it recomended a g-mail adderss i havent tryed yet.Pj

Yes. The wires run from the camera to their connecting port pin the backside of the dvr. You will also need a vga cable to connect to a monitor which isn't included

I am unable to answer with certainty because my DVR is also Swann. However it appears that all or most cameras use the same type of wires. This suggests that the answer is yes. The resolution lines of the camera should at least equal that of your dvr though if you want your usual quality.

Paul, I purchased this cable to connect an external hard drive to a DVR. It did not work.

No, it is designed to plug into the Siamese cable that goes back to your DVR and Power Supply.

Using a standard all in one RCA video and power cable, the camera will be powered back at the video connection end. At the video connection end which will connect to your DVR or monitor you will need a 500mA DC power supply.

Camera to dvr uses bnc and the cables provided will do the jop and they have twisted pair to power the cameras and for the monitor you can use rca or hdmi or standard VGA whatever your monitor support
