Xcarlink and Rear Camera

I searched and couldn't find a definitive answer so I want to be sure before I put everything back together. I have the xcarlink and a rear trunk mounted camera. The camera has the yellow RCA cable with the red power wire coming out of both ends. I have the camera wired in the rear to the reverse light via a relay. Xcarlink says to connect the green wire to 12v for the camera. Can I connect the green wire to the red wire coming out of the yellow RCA cable up at the unit and then leave the red wire on the other end of the RCA cable taped up?

I don't have this and I cannot speak with authority on your setup...

But the yellow wire is usually the low voltage video signal and placing 12v on it will blow the electronics.
