  Not Shielded! May 2, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This cable is not shielded in any way. The package clearly says on the front "Shielded for less interference", but this is a complete lie. You can't tell that unless you cut the cable (as I did to shorten it to 90'), and by then it's too late to return it. All it has is 4 individual wires wrapped in one sleeve, no shielding layer at all. Even the grounds for the audio, video, and power are all combined on one wire. The picture from my camera is washed out and getting interference from everything using this cable.
HANGING BY THE CABLE April 21, 2008
HI, EVERYONE I ORDERED A SWANN AV CABLE AND RECEIVED ANOTHER POWER CORD... I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT I GOT... THE WAREHOUSESELLER TOLD ME IF MY TIME WAS SO PRECIOUS I COULD DO WHAT EVER I WANTED TO DO WITH IT. I COULD THINK OF A FEW THINGS... I MIGHT MAKE A TIRE SWING OR SOMETHING OUT OF IT. I DON'T THINK THEY SHOULD BE SO SMART ABOUT IT. WHEN ORDERING THEY SHOULD STATE THAT YOU CANT RETURN WITHOUT A RETURN NUMBER AND YOU CANT GET THAT WITHOUT EMAILING THEM. THEN WAIT ON A RESPONCE, JUST HAVE A LOT OF TIME TO WAIT. THEN PRINT A RETURN LABLE AND MAIL IT BACK. BUT IN MY CASE THEY DIDNT OFFER ME THIS OPTION. I WISH I HAD THAT SWING ABOUT NOW. THEY SAID THEY WOULD SEND ME A REPLACEMENT CABLE IN THE MAIL. I HAVENT RECEIVED ONE YET. IM TIRED OF HANGING AROUND WAITING ON MY SWANN AV POWER CABLE. DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE YOU JUMP IN AND ORDER LIKE I DID. OR YOU WILL BE HANGING AROUND WAITING ON YOUR CABLE LIKE ME. BRENDA HORTON HANGING BY THE CABLE.
 Works with DVR4-Alert System April 11, 2008
I couldn't get a straight answer from Swann but I ordered this anyway and it did work with my DVR4-Alert system (from Costco). It has an extra plug (for audio) which is not needed with that system and required a RCA -> BNC adapter to go to the DVR (or re-use the original cable = 180 ft total) but it worked.
The package came with the cable and 2 RCA gender changes (female on both ends; connects two standard male plugs to extend).
good product February 29, 2008
Both the quality and prompt timing of delivery were very good. Only problem was, it was not the product I was looking for. This is not the sellers fault but mine for not researching properly. I would recomend using Amazon especially for their promt delivery.

Pro: It includes power cable for your camera and runs 120 ft.
Con: It only has one BNC converter so you'd better have another one on hand.
This silly thing includes TWO RCA gender changers but only one BNC adapter. Good thing the card we bought to hook it up to had an extra one.
Other than that, it works fine.
