    Other Cameras this has worked on: Model LNB8005-C
    A squirrel cut threw the ethernet wire on my Lorex IP camera on Sunday April 29th 2018. Called Lorex the following Monday and received a new camera one week later on Monday May 7th 2018.
    I had not received an RMA for the damaged camera yet so I decided to try fixing it, and this is what I learned.
    So if you have a Lorex IP camera that's out of warranty, and have a similar problem this might be the fix for you!

    This is the only video with clear instructions out there for this type of fix for these cameras. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. I’m going to try it out.

    Thanks for the video. In my haste to hook up my rooftop cameras, I did not waterproof the camera connections before we received rain. I was able to salvage 4 of the corroded plugs with cleaner and dielectric grease, but 2 were beyond repair. The wiring diagrams you included were exactly what I was searching for , because , as you pointed out, you are going from a 8 wire cable down to a 6 wire camera cable. I searched for a replacement female plug , but had to settle for using Cat 5 Jacks with punch down connections to keep the Male/Female ends consistent with the original. You used a Female/Female adapter , which is another great way of solving the problem. As a side note to anyone that makes the same mistake I did, I thought that I may have damaged my DVR or at the minimum the circuit board that the Cat 5 wires plug into, as my system did loose camera signals when the wires shorted out with the rain water. I even started a Lorax Problem Ticket, but fortunately, I discovered that turning the DVR off with the switch on the back , successfully reset the system. I can’t emphasize how important it is to waterproof your camera connections!

    I cant thank you enough for posting this very helpful and well done video. I was faces with more or less the same problem and have to replace the RJ45 8 pin cable that has been corroded in the rain so badly that some of the wires were loose. I had a heck of a time ringing it out and stumbled into your extremely timely and helpful video. I'm anxious now to try it out. Thank you thank you thank you.

    Thank you so much for this video. A squirrel chewed through cord on one of my Lorex cameras, this fix is exactly what I needed and it worked very well. People watching this video, don't buy new camera, get an RJ45 connector and crimping tool and you can easily get camera operational.

    Thank you Sir, for your detailed video. I followed your wiring placement and it worked! Thank you for taking the time to make this video. This method worked on my Lorex 4k bullet cam.
    Model LNB8005-C. It came with a kit purchased at Costco.

    video was just what I needed. didn't seal the connections very well and corrosion broke the contacts. the wire diagram you came up with is golden. this time i'm going to seal with some liquid tape and then cover it with some ductwork putty i have laying around, then cover with your tape trick. might seem like overkill but UV will degrade almost everything with time. thanks again, this saved much time.

    I know this video is pretty old at this point, but THANK YOU! I recently got a lorex lnb8973-c from a job where the connector got water inside and the pins were corroded and basically gone, I was able to punch it down to a keystone, but I had the yellow going to two pins, so I was having issues trying to figure out how to waterproof it to be able to go outside again. You mentioned you don't have to have the yellow going to both pins, just 1, and I snipped my yellow going to both pins and it still works! so I can put an rj-45 plug on and use a weatherproof coupler. Thanks!!!!

After having a crappy day today where things didn't go the way I would have wanted, it brought a smile to my face knowing that I could help someone and save another camera! ... P.S. I'm glad the video is still relevant a I hope it remains so for a long time to come.

    Question- I am new to this whole camera deal, So I ordered some lorex cameras, ran my own cat5e to each corner of the house and i was planning on just terminating the ends with a standard rj45 set up and then plug it into the back of the camera and then do the same on the other end and terminate it in the same pattern and plug that into the receiver/recorder part. Do I have to wire those rj45 ends a special way or can I just do the basic, orange, etc etc etc...

    @ifartinelevators 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I tried several times to get this to work. I was able to get the wire order correct in the new rj45 connector but it never worked. Then I noticed in the diagram that it said pins 4/5 and 7/8 are soldered together. How in the world is this accomplished? I know in the original connector that came with the camera it is set up this way, but in the video it is said this doesn't matter. So either there was a step skipped or my camera is beyond dead.

    • @Hasher411
      @Hasher411  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It does not matter which which one you use becouse they are termated together in the camera. I hate to say it but if it didnt work for you chances are that your camera 'if its the correct model' is done.

    Can you tell me the order of lorex wires to a normal cat5e wire? So my lorex 4k camera’s wire that I cut is colors of Blue, Purple, Brown, Orange, Yellow, Black, Red, and Gray. And I want to couplar it to cat5e which color order is T568B - Orange Stripe, Orange, Green Stripe, Blue, Blue Stripe, Green, Brown Stripe, Brown

    • @Hasher411
      @Hasher411  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry, scene you have 8 instead of 6 wires I don't think I would be of any help. The red and black wires you have are obviously the positive and negative and displace the yellow and gray wires 'or use in combination with' in the chart of the video. That being the case I would not know which wires to match the yellow and gray too. My suggestion would to be to use a voltage meter on the yellow and gray wires on the non-camera side 'while the power to it is on' of the wires to see if their hot or not. Just a guess but I'm betting they are and everything is still the same just the red will go to blue or blue/white and the black will go to brown or brown/white 'I don't think it matters'. Either way if you get it working please leave a comment letting us know how it turned out. Your dilemma may end up helping others with the same problem and that's the whole reason why I made the video. Best of luck to you!

      @@Hasher411 Ok thanks very much for the quick response. One of my cameras got water damage and it was under warranty so I got a replacement. But was trying to replace the female end on the camera with a decoupler…. but yea I cant get power to the camera because i cut the wire near the camera. But we will see if I can figure anything out. Thanks again!

    ...the fix works for any ethernet cable, poe and any type networking...wiring is standard and is not rocket science...for outside installations, place connectors in weatherproof electrical box. The cable is waterproof...not weatherproof...in this tower install you should have used half inch pvc conduit, its cheap and saves this type aggravation, but more importantly...dependability and peace of mind when away from home...my 2¢...

    it is so infuriating to push through 6 pins

    • @Hasher411
      @Hasher411  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ya, it's almost like trying to thread six needles at the same time. Luckily there is a divider between each pin so if you don't get it right you can just pull the wires back out and try again until you get it right. Might take some time and a good eye but you'll get it!
