kingsarms 0 Posted July 17, 2013 Hi guys, my friend just recently moved houses and in doing so he gave me his previous cameras since he got new ones for his new house. Only trouble is all the cables have been cut from the back of the cameras so I'm not sure how to recable them. Vitek stated they would repair each camera for about $50 a pop which isn't bad but I like to do things my self and figured I could do this. I'm a CCTV noob and I'm not sure what tip needs to get reput on, is it a BNC connector to coax and if so what's the pin out? Attached is a link for the camera spec sheet and a link for pictures of a camera and cut cable. Thanks in advanced I hope I've provided enough information. http://www.vitekcctv.com/specsheets/vtc-irv30-2810_cmyk.pdf http://imgur.com/a/OmoAI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SectorSecurity 0 Posted July 18, 2013 I would assume red and white are the power, and the other 2 are video, I have never had good luck repairing these types of breaks, usually just write the camera off, and for 50$ a pop to repair you might as well just put the money into new cameras. The power should not matter which you get as positive as 24VAC has no polarity the other 2 wires should be video + and video - can't say which would be which, you could attach a balun to it with a BNC connector to a BNC cable. Give it a shot cant hurt but don't expect stellar results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingsarms 0 Posted July 19, 2013 Thanks for the input, I appreciate it. I'll probably give it a try to repair and if they don't work, they don't work. I'll research for some good cameras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
