CCTV Video Baluns: A Low-Cost Alternative to Coax Cable!

[@beckywiththebadhair8331]

Is there any loss of quality by using a balun? Seems much easier / cheaper to pull cat 5 or 6 rather than bare siamese cable and then have to terminate them. Or preterminated siamese and likely wrecking a connector at some point : )

Can the positive and negative power connection run through the Balun. I thought I saw holes for each but it wasn't addressed in the video.

Balun: *bal·​un* BALanced transmission line to UNbalanced transmission line...

[@LTVoyager]

Yes! What’s is a baylun? Is that for unbaylanced cabled?

Why does the connection need an explanation? The connections are literally idiot proof and if someone needs that explanation then they probably shouldn't be using power tools.
