Just got a 8 camera system to install. Found a 4 module faceplate
with double bnc pass through socket modules to get the video leads
neatly into the attic space from my study. Can't find a neat way to
get the 12v supply via 2.1mm power plugs through. Any suggestions?
BTW sorry this is not about the EU.

just use 2.1mm spiders in the loft space with the PSU and only run BNC down to study.

It could be about the EU bet they have an eu standard connector for this.

Given that you've bought the cameras, continue with the coaxial wiring
BUT while you are at it, also cable alongside with CAT5 for future IP
camera use.

Hmmm.... CAT5e cable is rated maximum of 577mA per wire, 0.188
ohm/metre. Might that work for DC power use, if cores twinned up?

Could SCART be the worst cable connector ever designed? :-)

No.

It is certainly a contender.

I have some RCA leads with an inbuilt 12V flying lead for a 12V
supply which came with a car camera. Maybe a BNC version exists.

No, but it certainly is one of the worst.

Use Cat5 CCTV baluns , its a lot easier

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-Coax-CCT...-/172252174424

have a couple over 70m away , also easier now things are getting changed over to IP cams
