If this ever worked in the past , but is not working with a replacement section of cable then you have a fault. A VDA will NOT help your situation. Two questions ---> is the cable in conduit and why did you use F connectors?

Hi, the toss thanks for replying to my post , yes the new and old cable are in conduit the camera is located inside intercom box we installed brand new camera here link to the camera specs http://www.doorking.com/sites/default/files/downloads/1812-148-K-9-11_CCTV_Kit.pdf

 

why did you use F connectors because we had to make 2 splices in the cable the coax is inside an intercom box, the coax works fine we tested it would have been tough to get that cable out because of the pole the size of the box the other splice was made about 35 feet away from the pole we had to remove old coax from underground conduit that had water in it, we removed all water and ran new coax cable in that conduit we tested the new 40 foot run with the camera inside the intercom box, and it works great we also ran Quad Shield RG-6 Coax Cable Jumper to the intercom box camera and attached it to the splice with the 160 cable run the to the home, and we get video without any problems
