Power for 12VDC Swann Camera - 1000FT over Balun?

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I'm a broadcast video engineer trying to build a small CCTV system for myself to look over a property I maintain.

 

I'm hoping someone can tell me how far I can power a 12VDC Swann Camera on a Cat5 balun.

 

I'm using two pairs of a 1000ft 24AWG Cat5E - one pair for power, one pair for video.

 

I've been looking at this balun kit which says 900ft(300m) for video and power.

I'm very curious if any of you have experience with running both power and video at a long distance (I'm trying to go a full thousand feet).

 

Any Balun recommendations?
