Jon tart 0 Posted October 26, 2021 Evening. I’ve put wires in at home for CCTV cameras. I’ve got Qvis Cognitio cameras. The engineer has been out today to connect them up and he can’t get any image out of them. All wires abd connections are sound as he tested wires. I’ve used Cat 6 cable but it’s a heavy duty one with a thin metal proctor and a plastic separator in the middle of the cable. Standard CAT 6 cable is working and we can get images with that. Why won’t this better cable work? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted October 26, 2021 Hi. There could be a number I’d reasons which wire method did he use did he use cat5 or 6 rj45 also size of cat6 and distance of cable run are you using a Poe switch or nvr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
