This dongle splits into a Y-cable with two (2) ends. One end is a female port for the barrel connection, while the other end is an IO terminal block. You will plug the male DC barrel connector into the female port of the Y-cable dongle to complete the power connection. As for the IO terminal block, you can use that to connect a wired sensor to the ADC-V721W to trigger recording and video uploads to Alarm.com.
