It depends on measurement of your house. I had to use 25 more feet of cable. Mine works perfect. Hope this helps.

we only used the supplied cables. I think you may need a booster to extend cable that far. I would consider wireless if there is power available to the camera.

Not sure Thomas, I returned the system due to some issues with exporting footage of the DVR. However, when I was testing this system, it did seem like as long as you had a long enough cable, the system captures (but not exports) fine.

Should work fine. I tested with a10 foot cable then with two of these together for about 75 feet and that worked fine for viewing images on my camera.

Like most systems the cables are not long enough for most aplicatiomns . Perhaps 15 feet or so.

No. This is a wired system. They come with 60 feet of wire for each camera.

absolutely, you just need to use the right cable with video, power and ground. Its included when you purchased the camera.

my hubby added cables-- I am not sure the length, but the cables on the camera aren't very long- you might want to ask the manufacturer.

The camera farthest from the monitor is about 25 feet and the camera does not work. I would not buy a Lorex system.

Even though the camera is rated as suitable for outdoor I wonder how well it will stand up to the elements. Also, I think 800' exceeds the cabling standards for Ethernet by a wide margin but you should check on this. I think you may need to go with a commercial grade system.

you can use a cat6 cable up to 750 and it will work also you need a Balun. converts from copper to BNC. the cat6 cable has 8 copper cable so it provides power video data.

Yes it will work (if cable is good) extension cables have a bad history of not working well. Your camera is well equipped for this to work though.

I'm away from the system, but pretty sure each cord set for the cameras are 50ft. The local electronics guy at Radio Shack said I should have no problems going up to 200ft, but I cannot confirm. I recommend calling or online chatting Q-See customer support for a definitive answer. They have been very helpful in my dealings with them. Hope this helps.

You have got to get the Audio Video Power Security Camera Cable with BNC RCA Adaptor ACBVA150 3JH. I can send you a pic of how to hook it up. If you send me a link to copy and paste it. If you see the pic you will know how it works

Yes; I had to go 400' too and I just connected two 200' cables together - both male to female and then male to female on the camera. I then taped the connections with gray electrical tape to protect them from coming apart and the elements. Have not had a problem since and the clarity of the camera 400' out was perfectly color clear and as clear as the rest. But, as the others have suggested, check out the connections to the camera and the DVR BEFORE you go out and install the line all the way around the structure to be sure it works to your satisfaction.

Jason, my package consisted of 8 cameras and each one had 65' of cable included. But, more importantly, I've had three cameras fail in just over a year of operation and the resolution is not that good. Best of luck.

It depends... Straight to a cable box with a IR input it will work. But to a IR emitter it didn't work for me. Too long.

Yes! the monitor and camera can be up to 300 ft, I believe, away from each other.

Thank you for your inquiry. We have not had any issues with any of our customers coming to us saying that their lines lose tension beyond 100 ft. This camera system would be able to go beyond 100 ft.
