Hi folks. I'm wondering if there are some techies that can help please.

I had an ip cam go down. I suspect the wires were pinched.
It does not power up.

I cut the pig tail off in the hope I could see if this was the problem before ordering a new pig tail. Or if its the board, getting a new cam.

For the life of me I cannot find which 2 wires (or more) are power wires?
The are
Red
Black
Blue & white
Blue
Green & white
Green
Purple.
Bad pic included.

Can anyone help please?
Cheers

Thanks, yes I looked around at these. Mine as stated have black and red wires. The camera is rebranded, so no way of telling what make it is. Only 'Loosafe' as a brand name.
From what I can find. Black is DC- Red DC+.
Since it does not light up, I guess the board is dead.
Many thanks.
did you try another poe port? does the camera have a dc power jack you can try?

I'm guessing red, black, and purple are related to your power/ground (and not solid cores). The blue/whiteblue, green/whitegreen are probably your data pins. Not all 4 pairs are used on traditional (non-POE) ethernet.
 
Hmmm interesting. Of course, I cannot track from the old poe. My Cat got hold of it, now I can't find it! :-D
Thanks.

Trace out the wiring of the connector you cut off. Or is that the 'old PoE' liberated by the cat?
 
Sir, indeed. It was fully liberated and carried away. I'll probably find it about the time, the Russian's get here.
Funny what they take, really :-D

Look under the refrigerator and/or the stove ;)
