It went well. The baluns were $40 per end IIRC. (Of course, you need two of them) > are you sending composite video, or is it rf modulated? do you also use > cat 5 for audio? It is composite video. The baluns are video only, and I had to use some of the other pairs to get power to the camera. You can get baluns that combine video, audio and power, or just video and audio. You can also get "USB extenders" which allow you to run a USB device at the end of a nominal length of Cat 5. > (says nick with a wall missing off his house at present, and a coil of > cat 5 to use up) You know, Cat 5 is cheap. You don't need to worry about not using it up. Andy
