Notes:
1 For optimal performance, consider using option 2 or 3. It is
best to use the same cable type for the entire distance.
2 Cable run recommendation based on typical camera power
c
onsumption (up to 500mA). For specialty cameras with
higher current consumption, maximum cable run may be
reduced. Consider providing power to the camera at the
camera side, rather then at the end of the extension cable.
3 Indic
ators that your cable run may be too long:
•
Video is permanently black & white (even during day time).
• Video is dis
torted.
