Ive cut mh BNC cable .

[jcaan]

Hey guys

I tried putting up cctv.

I've made a stupid mistake by cutting one of my bnc cables to make it easier to push through the hole in the wall. I cut the cable from 10 inches or so away from the bnc connector so I can reattach it again.

There's a white and blue wires inside the cable. But there's also a kind of skinny metal conductors wraped around these wires. I've tried to connect the 2 wire together rand even the metal conductor thing. It's not working the camera.

Have I messed the cable up?

Any tips?

Could you post a picture of the end you've cut off (with the connector/s) and the end of the cable?
Admittedly I don't have experience with CCTV, but the BNC cables I've dealt with have all been co-axial, very rarely tri-axial.

BNC is the type of "connector".
The Cable is "Co-Axial".

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BNC_connector

You may need to obtain a "mating pair" of BNC Connectors and a length of appropriate cable to repair it.

Yes.
There is an (one) insulated conductor inside the co-axial cable
and
there are stranded (shielding) wires over insulation around that single conductor.

This is why it is called a "Co-Axial" (Same Axis) Cable.

Post a picture. I can't decide if you're talking about a coax cable that's paired with a power cable; I wouldn't expect a blue and a white core inside a coax cable, unless you're getting confused and thinking the typically white insulation is a core

What was written was "There's a white and blue wires".
A combination of singular and plural - which "does not compute".

(Perhaps the insulation was White and Blue striped - although I can't imagine that to be so ?)

In any case, a BNC connector is for a Co-Axial cable,
with one internal conductor surrounded by a stranded shield conductor.
