My question is this, should we purchase cat6 ethernet cables of various lengths depending on the absolute length we need in order to not have excess cabling burdening the nvr? Or should we get an (8) pack of 100ft cables? For home surveillance.
Great question! If you are uncomfortable making the fittings we would recommend going with the pre-made 100ft cables. There will be excess but just coil it up where it is not a problem. You have ligit. concerns about coiling the cable, but if its only 20-30 feet of cable coiled, the system will not experience any resistance to data or power delivery.
Dont save $3 on a cable! Buy quailty. There are some really bad cheap cables which are 95% aluminum with a thin layer of surface copper called CCA (copper-clad Aluminum). If you buy on price you'll end up with this garbage cable. You'll have all kinds of problems and never figure out its the cable. Thanks
Consider the cables the same expect max distance on cat5 is 220ft and cat6 is 300ft. Cat6 has a thicker conductor and other features which increase the distance.
Hi sir...i want to ask,i have 1 cctv 2MP camera to be installed,but the problem is too far about 200 meters,so what cable is most suitable for use? RG59 @RG6?/Cat5@Cat6? Help me to solce this problem sir thank you...
Hi Yan, the cable is specific to the camera. If the camera is designed to use coax, then you can use RG6 or what they call Video Baluns and cat6 cable. But the main problem is power, while you can transmit video up to 1000 feet you cannot transmit power that distance. Resistance builds up on the cable and eventually stops the needed power to be delivered to the camera. You would need to find a closer power source to power the camera and then use RG6 for the video transmission. Here is a link that describes the solutions in more detail. www.backstreet-surveillance.com/education-advice-tips/camera-power.html Hope this helps. Thanks for the question.
It depends on the camera technology. For example if you are using CVI cameras (a digital, coax based technology) they can send video 1000ft on RG6 with out video baluns. Other technologies would need video baluns to go that distance. Thanks
Best cable: RG59, 95% copper braid, copper solid center conductor, 75ohm, NO CCA!!! It sands for copper clad aluminum. Its actually garbage cable, pass on the CCA. Hope this helps.
Hello, have a question. I want to run 8 cameras over 700 feet but want to know which cameras system is the best to go with NVR or DVR, and which cable is the best to go with over that long distance network are coaxial? And want to transmit audio also. Please really need some help. Can I get some information on the wireless over 2 miles.
There are ways to achieve that distance with both coax and cat6 network cable. Give a call when you have time we can discuss the options. Toll Free 800-431-3056
I'm getting ready to buy a new house and I need to select my electrical and low voltage wiring. Do I install coax or cat5 cable for all security cameras or do I just go with wireless cameras? Most of my cameras I have now are wireless and some are solar powered. The wireless ones require a 110v outlet.
Here is a link that explains them in detail. Thanks www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/cctv-transmitters-controls/outdoor-poe-signal-power-extender.html
Yea, I would not recommend more than one. I think you are just asking for problems putting multiple in line, but there is a chance it will work. I'm concerned about the reliability. Sorry we could not be more helpful.
Cat8 is not even necessary and it can only support cat8 speeds at 100ft. At longer distances its the exact same as cat 6. Even at speeds less than 100ft no camera in your lifetime will be using the amount of bandwidth cat8 can support. Cat6 is the best cable for future proofing and best distance for the price.
If cat 5 has 4 pairs of conductors, can a single cat 5 cable run 4 cameras? If i have a 4 camera on a 200 ft run with junction boxes every 50 ft , can I get by with just one cat 5 cable for the entire length or do I have to run a separate cat 5 cable for each camera?
Sorry but no, that is not how they work. If your cameras are IP, you need six of the eight wires just for one camera. Each conductor is 24 gauge which is very small. They double up the conductors for power (two for +, two for -) this is why you can go 200 feet with power. One 24 gauge conductor (one for +, one for - ) will not power a camera at that distance. The data is doubled up as well. If you are using coax cameras with video baluns you still have the same problem; power. Bottom line is don't waste your time trying to do this, it wont work. Hope this helps.
@@BackstreetCameras aah. I thought it was running the power and video over the same wires, kind of like ghost power in audio systems Does the # of twists in each pair of wires have any bearing on the quality of the picture? i.e. if I untwist some of the wires before crimping them, will it mess up the picture? Thanks.
I have a new dvr video surveillance system and I want to use cat5 cable. First off I want to run the cat5 outside under a deck but don't want to have to run pipe. What type of cat5 cable do I need. Can CCA work or do I need solid copper. Next I have 4k 8 mp cameras what type of baluns witb power do I need? Or can I buy a roll of siamese cable and crimp the power and bnc connectors onto them? Thanks for any help.🙂
You can use either cat5 outdoor or direct burial cable. You can find the cable in bulk on Amazon or we offer premade direct burial cables, here is a link: www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/wire-fittings.html We would not recommend CCA for anything, it can cause strange problems that look like a faulty camera or recorder, lots of troubleshooting if it causes problems. You'll have to research baluns we do not recommend them. I'm guessing you have coax based CVI, TVI or AHD cameras? That is the only technology you would use baluns and cat5, is this correct? Thanks
No the system came with cables with bnc connectors. Its a swann system with 4k cameras I only mentioned baluns as in my research that seemed to be the only way to adapt from bnc cables to cat5. Is there a better way?
@@BackstreetCameras can I use siamese cable outside without a raceway? Is there a certain type that will match the bnc cables that came with unit. Gauge size etc. I would need a spool no more than 500 ft Thanks
The term "Patch Cable" just indicates a cable used to connect two devices. Patch cables are usually smaller 3, 10, 20 foot cables and can be cat5 or cat6 cable. Hope this helps. Thanks for the question.
Finally someone who answers real world questions. My camera system came with RG59 and power. Only issue is that they came with 60 ft cords. Which only limits my reach to corners of my home. My question is, if I want to extend these lines on the coax side, is there a difference between the RG59 to "F" type connectors? Why is there so many versions of this connection with the same wires? I'm so lost. Another thing if you don't mind helping me with is the crimping tools used. Are all coaxal tools used for all coaxal connectors? Would it matter if I swapped from one type to another and then back?
F type connectors are normally used for cable TV type cables. CCTV or "closed circuit tv" uses BNC style fittings. There are two types RG5 and RG6. Crimping tools will crimp either type. You can extend the cable using a BNC barrel connector and a pre-made coax/power cable with BNC fittings. Here are the items needed to extend the cable. (1) BNC barrel connector: www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/cctv-connectors/barrel-f.html and anther cable such as this one: www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/wire-fittings/cable-25-feet-cctv-video-power.html We hope this helps. Thanks for the question.
Good question. There is no real performance difference between cat5, cat6 or cat7 for security cameras. All cables have the ability to transmit more data than 4K security cameras require. There is a maximum distance limitations depending on the cable. Here is a link that explains. www.backstreet-surveillance.com/education-advice-tips/camera-power.html
Is it true that it doesn't really mattet if you use cat6 or even 7 cable because cat6 an 7 drops bandwidth past 165 feet and it's suggested that you use cat5e for security cameras?.Also what are the advantages if any in using cat6 or 7?...thanks
The Security Experts - Security Cameras Made Simple thanks for the reply.... is there a way to tell the quality of the cable?? is there a good brand to buy?? my system is 4k which came with 60ft cables. i replaced the cables with 100 ft cables and now i don’t have color
Now I'm quite sure its your cable. The consumer grade systems try and save money anyway they can. Keep in mind they are a price point product, not a performance product. So the first thing manufacturers do is engineer the systems to use as little copper as possible. You'll notice the cable looks much thinner than normal cables. You can resolve the issue by using normal CCTV industry standard cables: RG59 or RG6 95% copper shield. Here is a link to quality cables: www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/wire-fittings.html
Short answer is; no,fiber will not make a huge difference, most likely it will just cost more. You can go long distances with fiber but you still have the same power limitation problems. The performance will not increase with 1-4 cameras on a single cable link because Cat5 or Cat6 cables can transmit more data than the camera(s) produce. Fiber would be a good option for transmitting 16 plus camera(s) on one data link. Fiber is not a normal tool because of the costs, but it can be a solution to difficult installations. Thanks for the question.
Hi, I have a question. Will coaxial cable work with any security camera base system? I understand each camera will have it's own cable to hook up to the base unit. So what is the standard for most security camera units? Thanks.
No, you have to choose cameras that are designed to operate on coax. Here is a link to examples: www.backstreet-surveillance.com/hd-cvi-series/hd-cvi-security-cameras.html
The only visible difference between the two cables are; cat5 has eight twenty four gauge wires and cat6 uses twenty two gauge wires which is slightly larger. But if you look on the outer PVC jacket the manufacturer usually prints the specs or type of cable every few feet on cable. Not all do this, but many do.
We are working on some wireless videos which will be completed soon. Here is a link to our Sentry System. Its a good example of a long range wifi solution. www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/cctv-transmitters-controls/wifi-long-range-wireless-security-cameras.html
I am currently replacing all the premade siamese BNC cable in my home as its reached the end of their lifetime. My front and rear cameras have microphone add ons. I am making my own siamese BNC RG59 cables for video and power, but is it possible to make my own audio cable as well? The cable length would be about 35-40ft.
We have always used cameras with integrated mic's so we have not made an audio cable, ever. But my gut says you should buy a premade 35ft audio cable so the fittings are assured to work. Hope this helps.
No, the units will not boost the power; only regenerate it. What goes in comes out regenerated. But the max amps available to draw will not increase, it is only maintained. Hope this helps. Thanks for the question.
Thank You. This is excellent info! My questions: can I operate two wired IP cameras at a distance of 150 feet from my NVR? Is grounded metal conduit(EMC) acceptable for an exterior installation, or is PVC preferable? I presume that one inch conduit would be necessary to accommodate the connectors. If two Cat5-6 cables are necessary for two cameras, would two cables in the same conduit cause interference with each other? And, lastly, can I successfully operate two IP cameras over the same single length of Cat5-6 cable? Thank You for a truly professional video presentation!
Hi David, the distance is no problem for Cat5 or Cat6. You can go 220 feet with Cat5 and 300 feet with cat6. You can run multiple cables in one conduit, they will not interfere with each other. You can use either EMT conduit or PVC sprinkler pipe, I have used both with success. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the question. Run a cat6 cable from the camera to the router or use wifi extenders to expand your wifi signal to the camera location. Thanks
200 meters = 600ft. With Cat6 you will need to regenerate the signal at the 300 foot mark. Here is a link to a device that regenerates the power and signal, letting you go another 300 feet. PoE-Extender: www.backstreet-surveillance.com/cctv-parts/cctv-power-supplies/outdoor-poe-signal-power-extender.htmlHope this helps.
If you're older and and scared of technology, someone could see coax as better. But the technology is in its twilight years. 99% of cameras sold now are IP or wifi. The only reason manufacturers even offer coax cameras still is because of the millions of miles of coax cable already inplace in millions of buildings. Trust us, coax is almost over.
We'll you have to choose one or the other. Thanks for the comment. Here is a nice feet to meter calculator: www.metric-conversions.org/length/feet-to-meters.htm Cheers!
