I want to add an aditional camera to my house. I have a speco cvc-627. The problem is it has about 50' of cable attached from the factory (it is a bullet camera) I already have a lead ran to the mounting location (rg-59 with power). My question is can I cut the cable that came with the camera. I do not see power being an issue but how would I splice the video feed, can I just reterm it with a bnc connector? Sorry if it a dumb question I do not do much cctv and do not deal with bullet cameras much.

Thanks

You may not be able to put a new connector on the wire but I have spliced the camera and RG cable together many times with no problems. Keep the inside wire as short as possible and after covering it with tape bring shields together covering inside splice. Basically try to keep the inside wire shielded and maintain the cable impedance.

If it was built after 1980 don't expect it to work right.

I have cut the adapter off of the power cables before, but I would not try and splice the video. You should be able to find an adapter to take it from the probable RCA end on the camera and convert it over to a BNC. This is proably what you need depending on the connector on your camera https://www.cablestogo.com/product.asp?cat%5Fid=102&sku=02455

Cut the cable, solder on a male RCA end. If you already have a BNC end on your RG59, use a female BNC to female RCA adapter. By keeping it with this configuration, it makes it easy to troubleshoot or change the camera to any style in the future. Always think of the future, no hardwiring!

Thanks for the advice guys, basically this is what I did. I cut the cable about 6" from the back of the camera, I then cut the cable about 4" from the end keeping the factory installed bnc connector and power adaptor. I then solderd the cable back together, heat shrinked the power splice, then soldered back the video cable,tape and heat shrink, and then a piece of heat shrink over the whole splice. the camera is working nicely (on my desk anyway) I can now just connect the camera tothe rg59 with a bnc connector already waiting for it

Thanks again
