These wires from the camera to the base are too short for my needs (need about 100). Can I use longer wires and still have it work?

yes i have two sets of wire coupled together my base is in my garage and picture is perfect

this is what i used http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000S7AQF4/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8&qid=1410397304&sr=1&keywords=cctv+power+wire if your wiring the box in the attic and need more wire then these any gauge wire will work the cameras do not pull alot of watts. Even some speaker wire will work

I could not find a reliable answer to a longer battery eliminator cable. I hung the camera on the wall outside of the door and drilled thru the wall to put the plug inside the house. In my case a garage. Not an elegant solution.

I use extenders to lengthen the camera base. If I recall correctly, probably looking approx. 6 inches from base to upright. Might be less. But over 4 inches.

Length of the wires are about 3ft. Not very long. You may have to splice depending upon the distance of the "sweet spot" location.

One of my camera cables was too short (it has to go around the house and through crawlspace), and I made my own out of old cat-5 cable. It is close to 100ft. Camera works well. There is definitely no 15 ft limit.

Hi Jacob, Here is the link where you can plug in the camera and brand you have and it tells you which wire you will need.http://www.pocketwizard.com/support/cable_finder/

Would it be possible to buy a longer spool of line that would work with this particular camera?

I'm running 100' my self and having no troubles. I can't see why it could not run the camera at 300', run a line and find out

I'm not aware of where you can order cables with the connectors used for this device. However, you should be able to use regular twisted-pair networking cable to add length by splicing it into the provided cable. I'm not sure what length before the signal would degrade, but I would expect you could go 100 feet or more. Just some advice if you splice: don't cut too close to the connectors, in case you need to repair or re-do the splice in the future, you want to give yourself plenty of room (I'd splice at least a few feet from the connectors), AND if you're unfamiliar with splicing cable ask someone who does for tips on making solid connections. I honestly don't know where to get the connectors that they use, but they look like a common style of circuit-board type connectors, so I imagine there are electronic parts retailers or manufacturers that sell them somewhere. 20 years ago, I would have said "go to Radio Shack", but they haven't been much help recently with these kind of things. You should note, the connectors for the cameras are 4 pin, and the connectors for the control line between 2 monitors (if you have 2 monitors) are 5 pin.

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.

No, you will need to extend the wire. I don't recall the exact length, but you'll need to add an extension.

I would assume not as these are for converting bnc to cat5. As you know the cameras only utilize 3 of the 8 wires. 2 of the remaining 5 are for power supply. Unless you have a matched set of connections it is probably not going to work

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.

I think it was less than ten feet but the video wire is very long. I used a transmitter instead of running all the wires . And I'm not sure about the deck but if it is back up camera ready you should have no problems...just google and read the specs
