Product Information

Full details

This Kenable DC Power Extension Cable is designed for users needing to extend existing power connections, primarily for CCTV equipment or other low-wattage appliances up to 60 watts. Its key benefit is providing a reliable 3-meter extension with secure, molded ends. A crucial caveat is verifying the exact DC barrel size (5.5mm outer, 2.1mm inner) matches your device, as variations exist.

Troubleshooting

Device not receiving power after connecting the extension cable.

Ensure both ends of the extension cable are securely connected. Verify that the power adapter is functioning correctly and supplying adequate voltage. Double-check that the DC barrel size (5.5mm x 2.1mm) is compatible with both the original cable and the device. Confirm the device's power requirement does not exceed the cable's 60W rating.

Intermittent power or connection issues.

Check for any damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the connectors are clean and free of obstructions. Try connecting directly without the extension cable to isolate the issue.

Cable feels warm during use.

This may indicate the device is drawing close to the 60W limit. Monitor the temperature. If it becomes excessively hot, disconnect immediately and ensure the device's power consumption is within the cable's specifications.
