security camera wiring color codes

Recommended Posts

wired security camera: Securetek BT-176WC-DN. On the specs sheet it says 'power required 24volts', 'current consumption 12 volts. Do I connect 12 volts or 24 volts?

There are no REAL "standards" when it comes to CCTV wiring colors... however, the yellow-inside-black would be a coaxial wire and is 99.99% likely your video feed (the shield is ground)... and red and black are most commonly your power wires (red for +, of course).

 

The others are probably audio and/or serial control and if the camera doesn't support those features, are probably there because the manufacturer wanted to just use one type of wire for all their cameras.
