CCTV Camera Cables

A CCTV camera cable is a composite cable that combines, under a single sheath, a coaxial core carrying the video signal with additional cores carrying the camera's power and an audio or data connection. It is used in analog and HD analog security camera installations to carry both video and power by running a single cable between the camera and the recorder. In this category, indoor, outdoor and HFFR sheathed types in 1+2, 1+4, 1+8 and 1+12 constructions, with additional cores in cross-sections such as 2x0.22 mm², 2x0.50 mm², 4x0.22 mm² and 2x0.22+2x0.50 mm², are sold by the meter from the Mekas, Erse and Reçber brands. Choose the number of additional cores according to power, audio and data needs, the cross-section of the supply core according to the camera current and the voltage drop over the line length, and the sheath according to indoor or outdoor installation. In the construction name, the first number indicates the coaxial core and the number after the plus sign indicates the number of additional cores. A CCTV cable is not a network cable; IP cameras require a twisted-pair Ethernet cable such as Cat5e or Cat6.

How to choose CCTV Camera Cables

A CCTV camera cable is a composite cable that combines, under a single sheath, a coaxial core carrying the video signal with additional cores carrying the camera's power and an audio or data connection. It is used in analog and HD analog security camera installations to carry both video and power by running a single cable between the camera and the recorder.

  • Clarify the circuit duty first: power distribution, control, fire safety, Ethernet or analog signal.
  • Compare conductor cross-section, core count, insulation and shielding against the installation route.
  • Switch to the proper cable family early when flex duty, oil resistance, halogen-free jacket or fire integrity is required.
