randalmorn 0 Posted February 5, 2017 Hi. I bought a Samsung DVR kit (SDH-C75100) with 1080p BNC cameras (SDC-9441BC). I need to use 900ft. long cables for the cameras. Which cable type should i use to get a good image quality? Do i need to use baluns or any other accessories? Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That format is only good for 300ft you can use repeaters but they cost a lot .... 900ft will need two repeaters so an extra $150 to 200 on each camera Be cheaper to send the SDI system back and go cvi.

Thank you for your response. 10 of 16 cameras will be under 300ft. range, but 6 of 16 cameras will be 900ft. range. Any other alternatives to repeater?

It can't run on baluns or cat5. And the repeaters are not that reliable It's going to cost you around 2k in repeaters Your best option is to swap dvr for a tribrid use your existing SDI for under 300 and use cvi cameras for above ...... Lot less than the 2k cost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
