I have quite a few runs of RG6/U between 100' and 300' in length. They are part of a plant wide CCTV system. I can't properly measure signal strength on these cables, but some of the cables are not broadcasting any images to my DVR or monitor.
I know the cameras connected to the RG6 are working.
I know my DVR and monitor are working properly.
The problem seems like it must the RG6.
I'm not a datacom guy, this is my first rodeo. How easy is it to damage coaxial during pulls or through tight bends? (Some of it connects to cameras through 3/4 LBs.) And could this account for enough signal degredation to explain the fact that these camera channels aren't broadcasting?
Any help at all would be appreciated. I'm pulling my hair out!
