Question: I need to get new Sony cctv cameras for my place of business and am
using it in conjunction with my remote video monitoring units so i need
really good resolution..i was looking into sony cameras, but if anyone has
any suggesstions i would really appreciate it and also i should use just
rj58 wire to run the whole thing right...with those BNC
connectors?...thanx
Answer:RG-58 is 50 ohm cable used for computer networking and some RF antenna
applications like CB-Radio. Unfortunately it is not appropriate for video
distribution. For that you need a 75 ohm cable. For short runs of Sony CCTV
RG-59 will work fine. If you have to make runs over 500' I would reccomend
that you change to RG-6.
Also Sony makes a decent camera, but there are several brands that could give
you good resolution. Also, don't forget to run power wire.
