Not sure what is considered low latency for what you want (are you talking MP or higher?), but Bosch Security AutoDome II IP Camera (PTZ, 10X optical) claims an overall latency of 240ms. Not sure if that's too high for your specific needs. Regarding your infrastructure question (twisted pair or fiber), that depends on your bandwidth requirements. Twisted pair Ethernet can go up to 1Gbit/second (actual use will max out around 950 Mbit). Fiber can go up to 40GB, and in extreme cases (and lots of money) 100GB+ (Bell Labs in Villarceaux, France, is multiplexing 155 channels, each carrying 100 Gbit/s over a 7000 km fiber) source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_communication.
