DC Barrel Power Cords

Name: DC Barrel Power Cords | Male DC Barrel Connector Cables - Frigate
Price: 249.00 USD
Availability: InStock

DC Barrel Power Cords performance in low-voltage systems depends on minimizing resistive losses over cable length. Using high-conductivity copper with tightly controlled cross-sectional area and precise stranding, the Power cords maintain regulated voltage across loads up to 5A. This ensures stable DC output even in longer cable runs or under transient load conditions.

Outer Diameter Tolerance (Barrel Plug)

±0.05 mm

Inner Contact Resistance

≤ 30 milliohms

Conductor Material

Oxygen-Free Tinned Copper (OFC), Class 5 Stranding

Conductor Cross-Section Area

0.25 mm² to 1.0 mm² (AWG 24 to AWG 18)

Rated Voltage

5V to 48V DC

Product Description

DC Barrel Power Cord interfaces often suffer from poor mechanical tolerance, leading to micro-arcing or unstable contact. Precision-formed barrel dimensions with controlled inner diameter tolerances and spring-loaded internal contacts pflegen a secure electrical path. Contact resistance remains consistently below 30 milliohms even after thousands of mating cycles.

Rated Current

Up to 7.5 A (continuous), based on conductor gauge

Dielectric Withstand Voltage

1500 VDC (1 minute)

Insulation Material

PVC or TPE, 80°C to 105°C rated

Jacket Flame Rating

UL VW-1, CSA FT1

Operating Temperature Range

–20°C to +80°C (standard); up to +105°C (high-temp variants)

Connector Plating

Nickel or Gold over Brass, ≥ 1.0 µm thickness

Shielding Structure

Aluminum-Mylar Foil + 85% Tinned Copper Braid

EMI Suppression

Optional Ferrite Core, 100–300 Ohm impedance @ 100 MHz

Mating Cycle Durability

≥ 10,000 cycles

≥ 1,000,000 cycles @ 90° bend radius

Technical Advantages

DC Barrel Power Cord assemblies support varying outer and inner diameters such as 5.5×2.1 mm, 5.5×2.5 mm, and 3.5×1.35 mm, accommodating different OEM jack configurations. Customizable polarity orientation and pin depth allow integration with legacy and mixed-voltage devices without requiring adaptor modifications.

DC Barrel Power Cord constructions incorporate multi-layer shielding, including aluminum-mylar foil and braided copper mesh, to contain conducted and radiated interference. Optional ferrite core additions further attenuate high-frequency noise coupling into power lines, critical for proximity to analog, RF, or high-speed digital circuits.

Industry Applications

Industrial Control Panels

Delivers stable low-voltage DC power to HMIs, PLCs, and embedded modules with polarity-controlled barrel connectors.

Telecommunications Equipment

Used for power delivery in routers, switches, and signal repeaters requiring secure DC input via standard barrel jack interfaces.

CCTV Surveillance Systems

Connects 12V DC cameras and DVR units with shielded barrel cords to prevent signal disruption and ensure voltage consistency.

Laboratory Test Equipment

Provides regulated power to benchtop instruments, oscilloscopes, and analyzers using precision-mated DC barrel terminations.

Medical Diagnostic Devices

Powers Class I and II medical devices under strict voltage regulation with low-leakage DC barrel connections.

Consumer Electronics Prototyping

Interfaces development boards, display modules, and breakout kits with DC power using multiple barrel connector size configurations.

Heat Tolerance During Continuous Current Load

DC Barrel Power Cord insulation materials are selected for thermal endurance with temperature ratings of 80°C to 105°C. Conductor sizing and jacketing are matched to current demands to prevent thermal rise, ensuring safe operation in enclosed or poorly ventilated systems operating at sustained loads.

DC Barrel Power Cord variants are available with laser-marked plug housings, molded directional indicators, and color-coded components. These features simplify deployment in the field, reducing risk of reverse polarity connections in high-density or multi-voltage distribution panels.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How does Frigate ensure dimensional precision across different DC Barrel Power Cord plug variants?

Frigate uses CNC-machined plug barrels with OD/ID tolerances maintained within ±0.05 mm. This minimizes mechanical play during mating and prevents stress on PCB-mounted jacks. All connectors are verified using pin gauges and automated visual inspection. This process ensures consistent fit across high-volume production runs.

Can Frigate customize DC Barrel Power Cords for specific voltage and current ranges?

Yes, Frigate offers cable assemblies with tailored conductor gauges, insulation thickness, and connector plating based on voltage/current application. Cords can be rated from 5V up to 48V, and currents from 0.5A to 7.5A continuous. Thermal rise and voltage drop are modeled using application-specific load profiles. All designs are validated through electrical simulation and empirical testing.

What quality control measures does Frigate implement for DC Barrel Power Cord production?

Each unit undergoes 100% continuity, insulation resistance, and high-voltage dielectric testing. Contact resistance is measured using a four-wire Kelvin method to ensure low-loss power delivery. Lot-level data is recorded for traceability under ISO 9001 workflows. Statistical sampling is applied for mechanical integrity and dimensional inspection.

How does Frigate address electromagnetic compatibility in DC Barrel Power Cord assemblies?

Fregatte offers shielded barrel cables with foil+braid construction and optional ferrite bead suppression. Shield continuity is verified from connector to connector to ensure effective EMI containment. These cords are suitable for systems requiring CISPR or FCC Part 15 compliance. Custom grounding schemes and drain wire terminations can also be integrated.

What testing standards does Frigate follow for DC Barrel Power Cord validation?

Frigate tests all DC barrel cords according to UL 758, IPC/WHMA-A-620, and IEC 61076-3 connector guidelines. Hi-pot tests up to 1500V DC are conducted for insulation integrity. Flex life testing exceeds 1 million cycles for mobile-grade cords. Material certifications (RoHS, REACH) are documented per customer compliance needs.
