Verdict is still out... I was all in Then i realized i needed one per camera So i stayed away at first, but one ethernet cable to rule them all eventually had me order 3. Still running cable , converting and just more component to go janky in the chain? I returned them Then i ran SDI in and out feeds with long power connectors into these electron burrito cables. Whew!! I may go back to them at some point but I may wait for one component converter with more capacity than one camera per.
