Cable affects reliability

Longer camera runs are more sensitive to cable quality, terminations, power delivery and environmental exposure. Poor cabling can produce intermittent faults that look like camera or recorder failures.

Installation planning

SonSec considers cable route, distance, power, recorder compatibility and maintenance access when planning CCTV installations or diagnosing unstable camera feeds.
