Well their original cable was rg59 and was corroded, split open, pretty much beat to the end of its life so since I was running very long spans I decided to go with RG6quad shield since it was a high interference environment. I did not know that it is not good at low frequencies. The longest span is still good but the rest of the cameras are shot, they were dead before I changed the wiring. What would be your suggestion for very long runs, say 100 meters and in very close proximity to fluorescent fixtures?

Hey guys, I'm installing an 8 camera system for a local liquor store and I've come across a big problem. A year ago I was fixing their CCTV system and found that the reasons they were having trouble was because the coaxial cable was pretty much laying on multiple 8-light fluorescent fixtures and upgraded their cables to quad shield RG-6 but there is still interference. So I wasn't able to get the job done. Now they called me up and want me to try again. Is there any way I can avoid interference from multiple fl. fixtures? It's in a drop ceiling so I have no way of keeping the cables farther than a foot or a foot and a half... any help is appreciated.
