I just watched this BnC fix-it video, went outside to bend the ground on my Camera's BnC Connector like he did, and it WORKED! I was about to replace the whole 30 foot cable. Thanks for posting this.

I just got around to going step by step check of my dead camera, I was ready to replace the camera and cable. I had already bought new cameras and cables, but decided to check out the contact that the connections were making!!!. Walls!!! Working like new. And I have a spare cameras and cable. Thank you very much! Next time I have a problem I will go to KZbin, take advice and do test, then buy. Think I will add another camera to my system.

Great video thanks and fixed my BNC to RCA video cable and finally pinned down rthe cable as the fault of poor connection, not pc, not camera, not old drivers. I didn't have to crimp the ground inward as in video. Instead by observation I saw there there were 2 movements that could be used to push the BNC onto the camera video out connector. The first connector was the culprit and brought to my attention by your excellent video. I observed if I pushed on the BNC by holding the outer sleeve jacket of the BNC, its the outer sleeve you use to twist onto the centering pin and then twist laterally to hold the connector in contact and in position. I noticed doing this there was still a small gap between the ground of the camera ground and the BNC ground. What I needed to do instead was to push it on instead from the black plastic sleeve with my thumb and forefinger on the dotted and lined section of the sleeve for gripping it. I needed to use this motion to push the BNC firmly on. Then to use the second motion to twist the BNC using its silver sleeve so that the locking pin was firmly held. Using the first procedure didn't work at all. I probably need a new cable but great thanks for the heads up there.

Your video inspired me to try something slightly different. Instead of bending anything I used a tiny bit of carbon conductive grease on the neutral to bridge the connection. It worked. You were right about loose connections. Carbon conductive grease is a special black grease that conducts electricity. Just use a small bit and make sure you don't get it between the neutral and center positive contacts.

Thanks this helped fix an intermittent problem I was having on a Lorex HD camera. Another fix that I have run across is for the power connection. Using Stanley crimping pliers (the one with the prong to crimp a butt connector) take the male end of the power cable (the one that plugs into the camera) about 1/3 of the way from the outer end and put a SMALL (small) dimple on the metal jacket of the connector. This will tighten the inner barrel for the center pin and also make the outer jacket oval for a better connection as well......Just sayin".....Thanks again

It sounds more like a power issue. Those power adapters do go bad at times. Also, you may have too many cameras connected to one adapter.If you have another adapter ( Usually 12 volt DC with the '+' at the tip, and rated at 500ma or more) try connecting only the one camera to it. Check to see if that solves the problem. also, be sure you don't have any corrosion or loose connection where the power connectors connect.

@rchaisse
@rchaisse 2 жыл бұрын
Silly? Yeah.. I've done the same thing! It is probably easier to change out the cable, as you would need (4) adapters to make it work. The BNC adapters are available but I'm not sure of the Power adapters. Here's my question.. how is the cable run? is it loose through an attic or crawl space? is it secured against the walls? If it's loose, you can simply take another camera cable and use the existing one to pull the new one to the camera or DVR location. Of course, be sure the new one is facing the right way this time. If you don't have another cable available, you can use a strong pull-string or wire. Either way, be sure you wrap tape around the connection point in a way that the connection won't get caught on anything while you're pulling the new cable to the final location. BTW, if you have to use pull-string, the length needs to be at least twice as long as the distance to the location you'll be pulling to. That way, when you have the original cable in hand, you can take it to the starting point, tie it on to the string ( the correct end towards the camera) and pull it through a second time. TIP: it helps if you have a second person helping you. One to pull and one to feed it . Hope this helps!

Hi. I'm going to assume that the BNC came off of the cable side, rather than the Camera side. I'm not aware of any mini BNC connectors, however all is not lost.. In the box that your DVR system came in, there should be a small package of BNC-to-RCA adapters. If you can't find them, you can purchase one from Radio Shack www.radioshack.com/products/bnc-adapter-2 You can also purchase a male RCA connector to go onto the cable side. First choice would be a shielded jack that requires soldering: www.radioshack.com/products/radioshack-phono-rca-type-plug-2-pack Second choice is the solderless: www.radioshack.com/products/radioshack-solderless-rca-plug-4-pack You will need mini screwdriver for those. And because they're not shielded, keep them at least one foot away from any electrical wires. Hope this helps..

I have the exact cables you have in the video. The BNC came off on the receiver side and dropped down to where I cannot retrieve it. Not sure why I'd need an RCA adaptor.

Wrap from the edge of the connector, out an inch or two, then back to an inch or two past the other end of the connector, then back a ways. Do that with both tapes.

Hi, We have a large CCTV system at work. ( 46 cameras, 3DVRs) about 2 months ago, there were 3 cameras blacked out. A co-worker said one day all three cameras went back on after a heavy storm, back that only last a day. What do you think the problem is? My first guess was the voltage is not enough to power up the cameras.
@rchaisse
@rchaisse 9 жыл бұрын
+Goforit8866, That depends on what kind of cameras, what kind of power supply and what kind of cables & connectors you have used.If they worked once, then the power supply's amperage must have been okay, unless you have changed something.What do the 3 cameras have in common? a single power supply that no other cameras share ?Suggestion: have someone watching the dvr monitor. while communicating with each other by cell phone or walkie talkie, move the connections around. if there is a change, then there's a good chance it's a bad connection. If not, try replacing the power supply, if it's a plug in adapter.One thing I have not covered in this video is that if you purchase 3rd party power connectors, the female end is often larger that the male end. ( add your own jokes, here ) Take a sharp pointed object and poke it in the end of the male tip and separate the split until it fits into the female end tightly. Do not split too much or you'll probably break the tip and end up having to replace the connector.Good Luck.

@rchaisse
@rchaisse 7 жыл бұрын
The connectors themselves are molded and cannot be re-attached, however, if you cut the wire about 12 inches from the connector, you can then splice the cable. You will need a soldering iron, small wire cutters, electrical tape and a small piece of aluminum foil to shield the splice from electrical interference. You also need good lighting and some magnification as the wires are very small and can easily be crossed with the other wires in the splice. If that doesn't sound like something you want to tackle, I suggest you get a 3/4" paddle bit and drill a hole with that. If you stagger the video and power connectors, you can tape them onto a stiff wire and work it through the holes.

Sounds like a bad power adapter. Do you feed all 4 cameras with one power adapter? If you have another power adapter that came with your camera system, you might try swapping it and seeing if it now works. If so, replace the power adapter with a new one. Note: there are power ratings on the side of adapters. What matters is the output voltage, usually 12 volts D.C., polarity is usually + and is at the CENTER of the connector. The amperage is either listed as A (amperage) or MA ( milli-amps) 1000 ma = 1 amp. 3000 ma = 3 amps You can use an adapter that has more amperage, but the other specifications must be as I described . Hope this helps

Hi Mike, Disconnect the camera from the end of the cable. Connect the Powerplug to the cable. If the rest of the cameras start flashing, you have a bad cable. If they are acting properly, connect your new camera to the end of the cable. If they start flashing, then you have a power problem. in that case, the camera is most likely requiring more power than you power adapter can supply. IF you have four cameras connected to one power adapter, try disconnecting a couple and see if the remaining cameras are working properly. If so, you need to add another power adapter. If not, the new camera may be defective.

Yes, follow this link.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/anTCg3d7dsmGmdE It's a bit long, but it does show how. it only shows 1 center wire. you will have 2 center wires. Soldering is better than just twisting them together, but either one will work. Just be sure to insulate each splice with tape so the wires won't touch the other wires that you splice. If this splice is going to be outdoors, you need to wrap the outside of the entire group of wires with rubber tape, then vinyl tape, or, coat the group with silicone II caulk so no moisture can get at the splices inside.

I have an 8 camera analog Mace system using Siamese cables. All worked years ago when installed. I've had to do a few repairs due to animals and again everything was fine. The separate power supplies for each camera were commoned to a single higher amperage power supply. Still OK. At one point, I ran a separate power supply to one camera thinking the cable had a problem. All OK again, it uses the same power supply as the other 7 cameras. Recently, the cameras have gotten progressively worse with horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines on all but the one camera with the separate power run. If it was the power supply, it would affect that one too but it is clear. All lines except one are run directly into the attic and then down to the DVR, very little exposure on the outside. What could be causing this interference on 7 of the 8 cameras? All connectors have been checked and refreshed.

Interesting. I have to say I'm a bit confused about what you're telling me.. Rather than pick about it, let me suggest this. Connect a single power supply to a single cable. Lines or no lines? Now connect the power supply, by itself, to the next cable. lines or no lines? Continue until all eight have been tested. If you have one that's bad, mark that cable with some tape. If not, then start adding cameras to the power supply splitter cable. If it gets progressively worse, then the power supply is failing. You can add a second power supply to handle 4 of the cameras. Also, if you have the knowledge and skill, tighten your electrical connections at the breaker box and the outlet. These connections can fatigue over time and can have an influence on the amperage draw from your devices. Warning.. you need to respect electricity. It can kill you or start a fire.. Don't try this if you don't know what you're doing. Hire a qualified electrician.

Thank you for your response. Since my post, the one good camera has gone dark and the others just have colored bars. I opened the DVR, blew out all of the dust and refreshed all of the connectors. I did use a separate 12V 1A power supply to one camera where I could reach the pigtail connectors. No change. The video and screen are OK because all of the menus and startup screen look fine. The same bad results happen with the remote app on my PC as well. I think the video input electronics for the cameras are just shot.

Hi, hope you fixed your proplem, It sound hound looping between some devices, tray to have all device from one source power, just to make sure there is no diffrent in grounding. becouse if you have 2 different source power, it cloud conflict in mixing different grounding.

The light on the plug that you connect to the receiver will be on/green when not connected to the receiver. When the two are connected the light on the plug will show very faintly and will be constantly blinking. Maybe this repair will fix this issue also?

Sounds like a bad power adapter, however the term 'Receiver' makes me wonder if you're referring to the DVR, rather than a camera. The power needed to operate the DVR is greater than the one needed for a camera. Be sure that you haven't plugged in the wrong one. If you have another power adapter that came with your camera system, you might try swapping it and seeing if it now works. If so, replace the power adapter with a new one. Note: there are power ratings on the side of adapters. What matters is the output voltage, usually 12 volts D.C., polarity is usually + and is at the CENTER of the connector. The amperage is either listed as A (amperage) or MA ( milli-amps) 1000 ma = 1 amp. 3000 ma = 3 amps Hope this helps.

Connect the power adapter directly to the receiver with no other cables connected. If it still doesn't work, replace the power adapter. if you don't want to deal with the manufacturer, take it to Radio shack or a Fry's electronics type of place. They should be able to provide you with a replacement. It's okay if the amperage is greater than the adapter you currently have, but the other specifications MUST be the same. If there are suppose to be lights on the receiver, you may want to take the receiver with you and test it at the store.

Sorry it took so long to respond. This could be an indication of either what I'm showing you here, of of a poor power connection, or over-loaded power draw. Definitely, try the repair I show, first. Check at the camera end as well as the DVR end. Then, If you are using 2 or more cameras connected to a single power supply, disconnect the OTHER cameras from the Power supply pigtail. If your picture improves, that tells you there is either too many cameras on that one power supply, OR one of the cables has a problem. In the case that the hole in the male end of the power connector is too big ( which sometimes occurs, use your pliers to squeeze the middle of the male connector just enough to tighten the connection. Hope that helps.

Sounds like temperature change might be the cause. Are these 2 cameras outside ? If so, re-tighten your connections as I have shown in the video. If not, is the DVR in a location, such as a closet, where the temperature may be colder at night than the rest of the house. If so, tighten the connections on the DVR connectors. As far as the display problem goes, Check the tightness of the power supply connectors. ( If you wiggle the connections, does the picture change?) Swap out the power supply with a known working one.

How to you shorten the pre made camera cords
@rchaisse
@rchaisse 3 жыл бұрын
Hi Jon, Are you wanting to shorten the cable because there is a problem with the cable, or is it because it's just too long? If it's too long, you can buy a 15' or 25' that would not cost much. Or, simply roll it up the existing cable and hide the excess. Otherwise, you could cut out a section of the cable and splice the remaining ends together. If the end is defective, the pre-made cables are not going to allow you to replace the ends. If that's the case, do you have a spare cable? If so, I would cut a few feet from the end of the new one, cut off a foot or two from the end of the defective one, and splice the wires. Soldering is the best method, but you could get away with twisting the wires and taping them. I looked for a video to help you with this, couldn't find one. Let me know if you need any more assistance and I'll try to help you further..

Do you have more than one camera connected to the DVR? Does it happen on more than one DVR connection? Does it happen with more than one cable? Those answers will help identify if the problem is with the DVR or the Cable. If it turns out to be the cable, you will probably need to replace the cable, or, if that is too much work, you can splice a new cable on the end to replace the bad cable's end. Hope this helps..

Let's say channel 4 is one of the ones giving you trouble. And channel 1 is one that is working properly. At the back of the DVR, Take cable 1 and move it over to cable 4's position. And move the cable that you take off of 4 and connect it to 1. If the picture on 4 is still giving you trouble, the problem is with the DVR.. most likely the connector needs to be adjusted more, as I demonstrated in the video. If the picture on 1 is now giving you trouble, then it's the cable that needs repair or replacing. BTW, I'm assuming that you know that when you connect these cables to the DVR you need to push and twist, to lock them in place.

If you have the same problem, it sounds like it's time to replace it. If you do, be sure the New DVR is compatible with your existing cameras. Also, if you have a business, this is a write-off so there is no concern about you spending the money. It's less you pay at tax time. ( or thew more you are refunded) best wishes..

if your entire Monitor screen is black, the first thing to check is the power. Are you getting a light on the Monitor indicating that it's powered on. Sometimes the power cord is not fully seated on the back of the monitor. Also check the Monitor's Video cable. Be sure it's seated well on both ends. if that doesn't fix the problem, can you take the monitor to a computer and plug it into the VGA OUT connector? be sure to take the cable with you. This will tell you if the problem is with the Monitor, or the DVR. If it's the DVR, unplug it from power for 30 seconds, then try it again. Hope this helps..

There is a chance it's the hard drive, but I think more likely the DVR. Open it up. (power unplugged). Carefully pop out the Silver battery (note which side is up). wait at least 1 minute. Put the battery back in. Turn on the power and see if it boots. If you're going to replace the DVR, be sure to get one that supports the type of cables and cameras that you have attached. Also, be sure you plug it into a good surge protector or Back-up Power supply. Also, the Hard-Drives used in DVRs have an AV included in the model number.

First thing to try is taking the cable off the port that is NOT working, and connect it to a port on the DVR that IS working. If you get a picture, the port is bad. If you don't, the cable, power supply or the camera is suspect. Swap known good, with suspected bad. Or, suspected bad with known good. Whichever is easier. Always remember.. you could have more than one thing wrong.

It sounds like your Power supply is bad, or has a bad connection. Now swap the power supplies and see if your bad cameras work. If so, replace the power supply. If not, unplug all the bad cameras and try one at a time. If you have a short out towards one of the cameras, it can pull down the voltage from the power supply and none of those 4 cameras will work.

It's possible that lightning struck the cameras and fried the electronics. It's also possible that it damaged the channels that they were connected to inside the Recorder ( DVR). Disconnect one of the cameras that's not working, and connect it to a known working channel on the DVR. If it doesn't work, the camera is damaged. But you're not done.. You need to take a working camera and connect it directly to the bad channel AT THE DVR. You need to power it with a KNOWN working power supply. If you don't get a picture, you know that it affected the DVR, as well. If so, you can use any other available channels, if you have any. Otherwise you need to purchase another DVR of the same type, or send it in for repair. Good luck.

When you say 'Picture' are you referring to the entire monitor screen, or to one camera's picture? If it's the entire monitor picture, the first thing to check is the cable between the Monitor and the DVR. Be sure it's fully seated on both ends. The same goes for the power cord being fully seated into the back of the monitor. If all is well there, then the only true way to troubleshoot the problem is connect another monitor ( that you KNOW is working ), OR take your monitor and connect it to a laptop or desk computer. If possible, use the working computer's cables on the monitor that is question. If the problem is the camera, then you need to connect your camera onto a cable that has a camera that is working correctly. Same problem means a defective camera. If the Camera is working properly, then it's an issue with your cable. From your description of the problem, I would say it would most likely be on the power side. Please, write back and let me know what you find, or if you have other questions.. Rick

You might want to purchase another camera & power supply for no other reason than to help with troubleshooting problems like this. My guess would be a bad power connection.. perhaps crimping the female ends, just a bit, might solve it. if you look real close and compare the female hole with the male pin you'll probably see that the hole is much bigger. If you crimp too much you won't be able to fit them back together. And, yes.. perform the adjustment that I show in the video. That seems always needing to be done.

My concern is that video and audio usually require a shielded cable. it might be ok if there is no chance of outside interference, but that's usually not the case.

After a couple of seconds, peek under your hand and see if the LEDs are lit up. If, so, the power is getting to the camera. If all is well, which input are you using to connect to the tv?

I'm a bit confused.. Does your camera plug into a DVR and you're trying to plug the DVR's HDMI output into your TV?

Before you cut, is the problem that your video keeps cutting out? Does the connection feel tight after you crimp it like what I show in the video? With one of the connectors in each hand, does the connection spin easily? If so, crimp it until if feels firm. Also, is the problem at the camera end, or the DVR end. The connectors on the back of the DVR need to be tightened, as well. If you have another person available, have them watch the monitor as you move the connections to see if you can tell where exactly the problem is. You may have to lightly crimp the female end of the power connector at either end... sometimes the male pin is much smaller than the female connector's hole, which can also make for an intermittent connection. Good luck and let me know if you have any success.

Wow they finally fixed my ability to reply. Sorry, I haven't been replying on your comments.. I tried everything I could think of but nothing worked. to JTJUllian, you probably found out by now that you CAN repair these cables. here's a link that may help.. it's not for a Video/ Power cable, just a video cable. If that doesn't work for you, let me know and I'll create a video for you. Rick

I got a new camera system..can I use any type of cables to make it work? thanks

No. There are several types of cables that are used for surveillance cameras. You need to match the ones that came with the system you bought. There is one exception that you can use Analog HD cable on Analog cameras, but not the reverse. Also, you must have the same type of connectors, on the ends of the cable, that match the connectors on the cables that came with the cameras.

If your cables have ends on them, connect them to the DVR & Camera before you run the wires. If they work, then you can run the wires. I can't help you with the connectors. It depends on too many factors. Try to get some help locally, or check with the manufacturer of your equipment. Also, there are plenty of videos on youtube that can help.
