TYPE OF WIRE TO USE

Recommended Posts

i HAVE A REQUEST FOR A SYSTEM THAT WILL REQUIRE APPROX. 2500 FEET OF CABLE FOR A CAMERA. CAMERA IS TO BE LOCATED AT A LOCKED ENTRY GATE AND THE CUSTOMER WANTS TO BE ABLE TO VIEW WHO IS AT THE GATE AND PUSH A BUTTON TO OPEN THE GATE. WHAT CABLE SHOULD I USE FOR THE CAMERA (RG59 - RG6- RG11)? ARE AMPLIFIERS REQUIRED FOR THIS DISTANCE? WHAT SHOULD BE DONE TO WIRE FOR THE OPENING OF THE GATE? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.

twisted pair with active balun's. be prepared to handle any ground loop issues which will require a isolation transformer.

NVT.com has Amplified devices with ground loop isolators built in, but the cost is not cheap.
