“So does the cable have to connect to the camera then run to the DVR box. The guy in the store just said the camera had to be plugged into electric and would connect via WiFi to the DVR box. Now after looking further I'm confused.”

If your camera requires a BNC connection it is a wired camera and requires cable connections. They do make WiFi cameras if you want to go that route but if someone cuts your cable and phone line first thing.... Nothing for you!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That's why each end has two pieces, one for power and one for video. It's for analog security cameras. If you want wireless you'll need an IP based camera system
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Depends on your system. Mine connects camera to dvr. Separate connection via ethernet cable from dvr to wireless router. This cable also has the power supply cable attached to the bna cable. Perfect fit for Bunker Hill Security 8 channel system.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The cable is a "Siamese" cable that has both the power cable and the video cable combined into one cable. The camera needs to be powered and sometimes there is not a power source near your camera. This cable powers the camera and runs the video line all the way to the DVR. The BNC end plugs into the DVR and the other end plugs into yoru DC power adapter into the wall. If the camera is a wifi camera you won't need this cable.
