cabling question

[dave camera guy 0]

Hello, I am a new member here and have a question hopefully someone here can help me with. I have a Bosch REG-71 license plate capture camera at an entrance to a casino that is giving me some video issues. 80% of the distance is on single mode fiber with video transceivers converting it to UTP the remaining 300 feet. I have what seems to be a grounding issue. The infared shot and the overall shot have a picture but i'm getting rolling bars from left to right causing the pelco endura to reject the recording. I originally had un-shielded cat5 in conduit to the transceivers. I have tried replacing the cable with shielded cable and bonded one side with no change in the picture. Will coax be a better solution? I am trying to avoid pulling fiber all the way to the camera. I have also tried powering it at the camera via transformer. The only way I have gotten a good picture is by bypassing the underground copper and laying temp lines on the ground as a test. Can anyone help?

Ground Loop isolator perhaps?

Thanks for the reply. I have not. Do you recommend an isolator that works with UTP? The Bosch camera I am dealing with has a cat5 pig tail for each camera. I suppose that I could add a balun on each side of the isolator but it just seems like overkill. Any thoughts?

Overkill? no. If you run into any external issues in the future, overkill means no need to return to add the balun..... " title="Applause" />

So....cameras cat5 pigtain to a balun, then add a barrel and attach female end of isolator, then another balun back to field cat5? I guess its worth a try, assuming I can cram it all into my junction box. I'll let you know how it works. Thanks again.
