InLine DC extension cable, DC male/female 4.0x1.7mm, AWG 18, black 2m

InLine DC extension cable 4.0x1.7mm AWG 18 black 2m is a 2-meter power extension lead with matching 4.0 x 1.7 mm DC barrel connectors on both ends. Designed for low-voltage DC applications, the cable supports 12 V input and a maximum current of 11.6 A. The AWG 18 conductor gauge and PVC-insulated black jacket provide reliable power transmission for a range of consumer and professional electronic devices.

Advantages

The cable offers standardized 4.0 x 1.7 mm connectors for compatibility with many DC-powered devices and appliances. AWG 18 conductors deliver low voltage drop and sufficient current capacity for typical 12 V applications. The 2 m length gives additional reach without the need to relocate power supplies, and the black jacket provides a discreet, durable finish suitable for indoor installations.

Suitable for

• Extending power leads for routers, modems and small networking equipment
• Powering CCTV cameras and other security devices with 4.0 x 1.7 mm DC jacks
• Connecting LED drivers, small amplifiers and 12 V consumer electronics
• Workshop or hobby electronics requiring a robust 12 V extension

How to use

Connect one 4.0 x 1.7 mm connector to the DC output of your power adapter and the other connector to the device's DC input jack, ensuring correct polarity. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it with clips or ties as needed. Verify the power adapter voltage and current rating match the device requirements before connecting.

Recommendations

Use this InLine DC extension cable for indoor, low-voltage DC applications only. Avoid exposure to moisture and high temperatures. If higher currents or longer runs are needed, choose a cable with larger conductor gauge to minimise voltage drop.
