moe 0 Posted February 15, 2007 Ok, about 10 years ago, before I knew about the real way to do CCTV, I got rooked into buying one of those complete Home Depot CCTV systems. Now my monitor died, but I'm pretty sure the cameras are still good and I have a real BNC input monitor that I would like to use. Even if I replace the cameras, I really don't want to run new wire. So, I was wondering if I can use the existing wire with baluns to split up the video and power from each camera? The wire I ran had 6 wires total in it and according to the specs, are as follows on the CAMERA END: 1. CALL-----------BLACK 2. DC IN----------RED 3. AUDIO IN------GREEN 4. VIDEO OUT----CLEAR 5. AUDIO OUT----YELLOW 6. GROUND-------BARE WIRE Is this possible to do? Also, how do I determine the camera voltage requirement, so I can buy power adapters for these cameras? Thank you.

VST_Man 1 Posted February 15, 2007 is this the 6 pin din type connectors? if so, you can get adapters for them and yes you can use them...... but i'd run new wire http://www.sjgreatdeals.com/loracc1510.html I use them to cover the "weak clients" that have made poor decisions. They work great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
