SAJEEL 0 Posted December 8, 2009 I have installed a Pelco Spectra III DD5BC-X with housing, I have wired up video with bnc and power into connectors, i have come to realize that this unit requires 24Vac @ 2a, can i power this using a dc power supply or not as the other cameras all require 12v dc Or will i need to buy a separate power for this camera, as i have been able to power up or test. Thanks in advance for your replies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

survtech 0 Posted December 22, 2009 You basically have two choices: either replace the 12VDC power supply with a 24VAC one and use 24VAC-to-12VDC converters at each of the DC cameras or install a 24VAC power supply for just the PTZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
