Not to hijack your thread but is it common for the LR1002 to be bad? I have two runs so far that work and while working on the 3rd run I can hear the camera click on but won’t display anything. I’ve tested with another camera and it won’t work either. What’s weird is the BNC camera works just fine so I’m not sure what the issue is. I’m probably just going to run a new cat6 to that location and call it done!

I’ve only installed 5-6 in various systems including 2 in my own (previous house) and had no issues.

Are you powering it (the camera) via the LR1002, sending power over coax or the old DC power? I'd be suspicious of a power issue.
Bench test with a shorter piece of coax or figure out if you're supplying the camera with enough power.

What I was asking is, if the camera is being powered by the LR1002 or from the DC power that used to power the old BNC cam.

EPOE from the NVR. I’ve tried different LR1002’s with different ports and same results. If I bring the camera inside with a new cable it works which is what made me think the cable is bad; but why would the old camera still work on the same cable?
Analog camera may not be as sensitive to an issue as the IP camera.
Maybe you exceeded the power capacity of the NVR? If you unplug other cameras does it work?
Is this camera a epoe camera?

yes I’ve tried unplugging and same result. It’s the LPR camera I messaged you about last week and have had it working inside when I tested them. I got it to come on one time with the wire but I’m thinking when I pushed the wire back up it must have “broke” resulting in video loss. I already ran a cat6 halfway into the attic so I will probably just finish and use that anyway.

previously, you weren't sending power over the coax. You could always try re-terminating the coax.
good idea

Rusty,
where are you hiding the LR1002? In the wall, or do you have a junction box?
originally in the wall, but I’ve scrapped the BNC setup and just finished pulling cat6 cables to each camera and will go with Poe

ahh ok.
do you know if these lr1002 adapter can fit into a junction box or the wall mount bracket? unit seems pretty small

They can BARELY fit in a camera junction box. But the wires are kinked 90 degrees and depending on what all comes with the camera pigtail, it might be tough to get it all in.
I went to these just to give more room:

andy says i could get away with this .. pfa122
or PFB203W
Thoughts?
this will be for the Varifocal turret... IPC-T54IR-ZE S3
Here is the PFA130 with one in it. Those two are a little bigger so you probably could. I would go with the PFB203W
Mine is LR1002 also LOL
But yours is smaller so it should be no problem.
