Strategic Insights & Recommendations
Dominant Brand
No specific brands are prominently featured across the platforms, with all responses focusing on cable types and technical specifications rather than brand recommendations.
Platform Gap
ChatGPT provides the most comprehensive systematic approach, Google AIO offers practical implementation details, while Perplexity delivers the most analytical comparison with detailed technical specifications.
Link Opportunity
There's an opportunity to create detailed brand comparison content for CCTV cable manufacturers and suppliers, as none of the platforms emphasize specific brand recommendations.
Key Takeaways for This Prompt
Analog CCTV systems typically use coaxial cables (RG59, RG6, RG11) while IP systems use Ethernet cables (Cat5e, Cat6) with PoE capability.
Cable distance limitations are critical: RG59 up to 300 feet, Ethernet cables up to 300 feet for Cat6, with signal degradation beyond these limits.
Environmental factors like outdoor installation require UV-resistant cables and proper shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference.
Future-proofing considerations include selecting cables that can handle higher resolutions and increased data rates for system upgrades.
