Kurt, sorry to keep bugging you about this, but I just realized that is the coax version of the Dahua camera, the POE version would appear to be DH-SD50A230TN-HN.
Any reason you are using analog rather than IP? Are you feeding multiple cameras into an encoder/DVR or something? I typically have spare Cat5 cables up towers but not coax. I’m assuming the network version could be powered via 802.3at up to 300 ft.

The camera I am using a PTZ with 30x optical zoom Dahua brand model# DH-SD50A230IN-HC-S2 Its a Chinese camera but the housing is rugged and rated for IP67. You can pick them up for anywhere from $400-600 online. Here is a video I made from a 130' tower with this camera. In the video I am controlling the camera from 15 miles away sitting at my office. https://youtu.be/wl9gLF0nZ9o On Thu, Oct 27, 2016 at 6:49 PM, Jerry Head <li...@blountbroadband.com <mailto:li...@blountbroadband.com> > wrote: We have hung about 6 of these for the local 911 guys... http://www.axis.com/ie/en/products/axis-p56-series They seem to work pretty well.
