Riven64 0 Posted February 11, 2016 Hi, I've been roped n to do some cabling for a friend of a friend, it's quite a big job for me (14 cameras with audio). Anyway we laid all the cables over a couple of days which was apparently a "big mistake" as we have run the Cat6 from the DVR's out to the cameras on a couple of installs and on others FROM the camera back to the DVR. The project manager came back and went mental as apparently they all need to be laid the same way or it will compromise sound/vision quality (they are all connecting through balun boxes. OK I am a newbie to Cat 6 I've run Coax Twinax etc etc and I have NEVER heard of running it a certain way or it will mess up is this true?, as I can't for the life of me think why it should be so if anyone can enlighten me.... Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers That manager has no clue. What difference does it make where you started from. Truly insane. A psychological evaluation is in order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
