Hello - Thanks for this video. What tools and materials are needed to crimp the female BNC connectors to the same RG59 Coaxial cable? For clarification, it would be to crimp a cable that would connect directly to the head of the cable you've demonstrated here.
@cctvcamerapros4 жыл бұрын
Jarrod, is your goal to splice together two separate sections of RG59? If so, I would recommend crimping an F-connector on each end of the cable. www.cctvcamerapros.com/F-Connector-RG59-Coax-p/cn-fm84.htm Then connecting the two cables with a double female F-connector. www.cctvcamerapros.com/Double-Female-F-Connector-p/cn-df1.htm You could do the same thing with BNC connectors, however, we have found that when attaching two cables together, F-connectors are more secure than BNC. If you do want to use BNC, attach these BNC crimp ons connectors to each end of the two cables. www.cctvcamerapros.com/CCTV-BNC-Crimp-p/bncmalecrim.htm Then connect the two cables together with this double female BNC. www.cctvcamerapros.com/CCTV-BNC-p/bnc-double-female.htm Whether you use F-connectors or BNC conectors, you use the same two tools. This is the cable cable stripper tool that you need. www.cctvcamerapros.com/CCTV-Cable-Stripper-p/tl-22.htm And this is the crimp-on connector tool. www.cctvcamerapros.com/CCTV-Cable-Crimping-Tool-p/tl-70.htm Please let us know if you have additional questions.

@@cctvcamerapros Thanks for the answer and suggestions. I was actually trying to design a neat wall or patch panel for the coax outputs going back towards the 16 channel DVR that wouldn't have all those lines running directly through a wall box. I found some rg59 female to female keystone jacks and can use a couple of 2-gang, 8 port keystone insert face plates to finish off the wall with a plumbing access panel on top of them to hide all the extra cable from the few lines of premade runs. I'll make up some male to male patch cables to connect from the wall to the DVR. I've got all the power side running into a surface mount 20 port power box with individually fused connections.

@cctvcamerapros5 жыл бұрын
To troubleshoot cable problems, it's always a good idea to have a spare cable to test with that you 100% know is good. For example, you can use a pre-made cable for testing. www.cctvcamerapros.com/CCTV-Security-Camera-Cables-s/258.htm Do know for sure that the camera is good? If it is not already mounted, you may want to test is somewhere convenient, like a test bench. Last, confirm that your power supply is good. Having an extra power supply os a good idea as well.

If you are referring to pre-made cable with the ends pre-attached, then no. You can not cut a re-crimp that type of cable.

Yes, you can connect an analog CCTV PTZ camera to a TV using the RCA composite input on the TV. However, you can not connect a CCTV camera to the CATV (cable TV) input. Please take a look at this article for more info. www.cctvcamerapros.com/Connect-CCTV-Camera-to-TV-s/798.htm

What ensures a good mechanical and electrical connection to the center pin, as it is neither crimped nor soldered to center conductor?
@cctvcamerapros5 жыл бұрын
You are correct. Nothing is crimped to or soldered to the center conductor when you put ends on the cable. The center conductor is specifically shielded so that nothing is connected to it. The connection is made when you connect the cable to a device or another cable using a BNC, F-Type or other type of connector. The connectors ensure that the center conductor attached the conductor of the other device or cable. I hope this helps.

Crimpon connectors for outdoors use are lousy. They get loose , i have had enough trouble that i gave up on them. On ebay compression tools can be found for 6$ and at 50cents a connector they are pretty cheap. Why waste time with the crimpons. I think you should extend the video to explain the difference between types of connectors and also show how to connect a compression connector.
@cctvcamerapros9 жыл бұрын
Navin Shenoy yes, compression connectors are also a good choice. We have a video that shows how to attach compression connectors here, however, the video shows a compression F connector. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2mZYouZbqeUoNU We also have a blog post with video demonstrations that talks about four different ways to attach BNC connectors to RG59 coax cable.

I have the same cable but instead of it being a solid center core it's strand copper wire instead and the outer (ground) is strand silver. I have the bnc end so how would I go about repairing it
@cctvcamerapros7 жыл бұрын
That cable is not made for CCTV applications. It sounds like a steel-clad cable for CATV, so I would recommend replacing it if you are using for security cameras. It may work OK at short distances with CCTV cameras but is not recommended. As far as how to crimp an end on it, it is probably the same process as you see in this video but I we do not work with that type of cable, so you should probably search for an article of video for that specific cable type to be safe.

Tony, you should make sure that the connectors you have are the right ones for whatever gauge cable you are using. For example, RG6 and RG59 use different BNC connectors even though the BNC part is the same. Maybe that is the issue?

Ok not to be a jerk. But I am a tech and I install cables and fix computers. Honestly you need to use better tools and cut things better the first time. Doing all that side work was not something that needed to be done. I could make a 2min video and not need to cut one thing also all those tools were not necessary you only needed 3 tools to do it right the first time bud. Hope where ever you work or what your doing you get better training.

+Dylan Eckert thanks for watching and for your candid feedback. There are different types of installation tools and different types of coax cable connectors available to attach a BNC connector to RG59. For some people, this is the method of choice. For others, there are other options that they may prefer: compression connectors, F connectors - then convert to BNC, etc. I can say that this and other methods have been done by CCTV Camera Pros and hundreds of installers that we supply to and the connections have held reliably for a decade and still going strong. We have also used other methods that have held up equally as well. We love freedom and choices. If you make a video on how you do it, please let us know so that we can take a look.

@alanbrown3976 жыл бұрын
NO - and if you try, you will seriously weaken the ferrule as well as degrading the strength of the primary crimp. If you're using the cutting tool, use blades properly. 1: slices the insulation to the correct depth to not nick the braid 2: slices through the insulation and braid, and scores the dielectric (and foil if there's foil) 3: Slices through insulation/braid and dielecric but doesn't nick the inner wire. The inner wire is then trimmed to 4-6mm length (deending on the pin) and the pin crimped on. It _must_ sit hard against the dielectric. A proprerly done crimp will not "flex" or pivot and will not pull off. if it does, then you're using the wrong connector for the cable or the wrong crimper for the connector. The connector is then slid onto the assembly until it clicks. It's on properly when a light tug on the connector won't pull it off. Only then is the ferrule slid into place and crimped. if it's tight, push the connector into the ferrule, _never_ pull the ferrule onto the plug (or you'll rip the connector off the end of the cable (putting the plug face on a flat surface works, just _don't_ pull on the cable.). Never redo a crimp or add a second one. This _will_ result in an unreliable connection. Properly done crimps will last for 60+ years.

...yikes. Twist up the shielding wires and trim them right off for starters. You don't need to fold them all back over like that and you certainly don't want them hanging out like wild pubes from sagging pants. Secondly, you didn't even attach the center core, which means the connector body won't click on properly and you'll only get a fraction of the contact surface. And what the f### was that last bit with the razer blade move you're trying to do? What are you some kind of yakuza boss trying to get viewers to chop their fingers off for you?
