So I work for a non profit school and we've recently upgraded our security system to a hd-sdi 1080p system and are using rg59 cable for most of our runs. We have 3 runs that range from 350 - 500 feet. I was hoping to get some knowledgeable opinions on how I could achieve this? I have had people mention signal boosters and baluns or fiber optic.
The other issue is our 12v power supply isn't capable of powering our night vision after about 200 feet.
I was considering just installing another 12v supply at more centralized location for the cameras out further.
Don't ask me why we went with HD-SDI, they just put me in charge of installation.
These are our cameras we have installed

We are leaning towards the baluns as it sounds slick, but I don't know enough about them or just relocating the dvr to the center of the campus instead of the back, but it would take a bit of work.
