quick_pick 0 Posted April 12, 2011 I bought a used samsung snc-550 The video out almost looks like a coax cable connector What kind of wire do i use for the video out to connect it to either a computer or tv Thank you in advance for answering such a newbie question Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nimrod 0 Posted April 12, 2011 Your camera has a BNC connector on it. A TV would have a RCA connector. Your computer if it has a single capture channel on the video card or tuner would usually be a RCA also. So you need a BNC to RCA, RG59 coax cable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcarusi 0 Posted April 27, 2011 Actually any good coax cable... I ended up running RG6 Quad Shield on the advice of a prewire book (http://www.bocsco.com/prewireyourhome.zip ) and it turns out that I got more distance with less noise. Clearly it is not a result of the increased frequency performance of the RG6, my bet is that the double shield is what helped. Anyone seen a comparison of RG59/RG6 for non-modulated video?
