RG59 CCTV Cable with Power 100m Roll
100m roll of 75 ohm RG59 coax with a built-in power pair, so one cable carries video and 12V power to each analogue HD CCTV camera (TVI, CVI, AHD). Not for IP cameras. BNC connectors and DC plugs sold separately.

This is a 100m roll of RG59 cable with power: 75 ohm RG59 coax for the video with a built-in power pair, so one cable carries the picture and the 12V supply between the DVR end and each camera. It is the cable for analogue HD CCTV, meaning TVI, CVI and AHD cameras such as the HiLook 2MP Turbo HD bullet, and older analogue cameras. It is not for IP cameras, which use network cable. Each run needs a BNC crimp connector at both ends of the coax and a screw terminal DC plug on the power pair at the camera.
How many cameras will 100m do?
Measure each run from the DVR and power supply to the camera, add a little spare at both ends, and add the runs up. Four cameras at about 25m each use one 100m roll. Our HiLook 4 channel and 8 channel CCTV kits each come with a 100m roll of RG59 cable with power, and the 16 channel kit with two.
Terminating RG59 cable with power
The coax gets a BNC connector at each end: one pack of two BNC crimp connectors does one camera run, and needs a coax crimping tool. The screw type BNC connector is the option that needs only a small screwdriver. At the camera, the power pair goes into a screw terminal DC plug, marked + and -, which plugs into the camera's power socket. At the other end, the pair wires into an output of a Hikvision CCTV power supply or a 9 channel power supply box. Use the same core for positive at both ends.
Long runs and voltage drop
The 12V on the power pair drops along a long run, so the camera at the far end gets less than the supply puts out. On a long run, measure the voltage at the camera. The Hikvision power supplies have Long (13.5V) and Ex-Long (15V) settings to make up for it; keep the voltage at the camera inside its rating.
Coax or CAT6 with baluns?
RG59 with power is the simple choice: video and power in one cable, with no baluns needed. If network cable is already in the wall, a pair of passive video baluns sends the video over CAT5e or CAT6 instead, but the camera's power then needs its own run. The system is installed by your installer; Alectra supplies the equipment only.
Key features
- Video and power in one cable. RG59 coax for the picture plus a built-in power pair for the camera's 12V.
- 75 ohm RG59 coax. The coax type used for analogue HD CCTV.
- 100m roll. About four camera runs of 25m from one roll.
- For analogue HD cameras. Suits TVI, CVI and AHD cameras such as HiLook Turbo HD, and older analogue cameras.
- Standard BNC termination. Takes RG59 BNC connectors, crimp or screw type, at each end.
- Power pair for 12V DC. Wire it to the CCTV power supply at one end and a DC plug at the camera.

Questions people ask
No. IP cameras use network cable. RG59 with power is for TVI, CVI, AHD and analogue cameras.
Add up your runs. Four cameras at about 25m each use one roll; for 16 cameras, our 16 channel kit uses two.
Two BNC connectors, one at each end of the coax, and one DC plug on the power pair at the camera. One pack of BNC crimp connectors does one run.
Yes. Turbo HD cameras send their video over coax with a BNC connection, and RG59 is the 75 ohm coax for it.
On long runs the 12V on the power pair drops before it reaches the camera. Measure at the camera, and use the Long or Ex-Long setting on a Hikvision CCTV power supply if the voltage is low.
Pick one core for positive and use it for positive at both ends. The DC plug's screw terminals are marked + and -.
For the crimp BNC connectors, yes, a coax crimping tool. The screw type BNC connector needs only a small screwdriver.
