Notes:
1. For optimal performance, consider using option 2 or 3. Preference for using
the same cable type for the entire distance.
2. Cable run recommendation based on typical camera power consumption (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. Indicators that your cable run may be too long:
• Video is permanently Black & White (even during day time)
• Video is distorted
