almelst 1 Posted October 14, 2016 I never used a cable like this, but it looks OK. Generally, you can connect an analog or HD PTZ camera in 3 ways: 1. RG59 coax cable with BNC connectors for signal separate power supply cable twisted pair cable (a pair from Cat5) for RS-485 communication 2. ready made video signal/supply cable with BNC and DC connectors twisted pair cable (a pair from Cat5) for RS-485 communication 3. full connection with only Cat5 or Cat6 cable: - video baluns on both sides (one pair from Cat5) - male/female DC jacks on both sides (two pairs) - one pair from Cat5 for RS-485 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
