How far can a cat5 single pair run to control the PTZ

Recommended Posts


Video - no problem as long as you are using active devices.

 

Data - really depends on the protocol. RS485 shouldn't be a problem, 422 may require shielded cable. You'll have to check the specs from the manufacturer (of the control equipment) to be sure. Most are rated 3000 ft. (1KM) or more.
