Re: Any DIY balun info for S-video to Cat5 conversion?

I read in sci.electronics.design that Dave <false.email@xxxxxxxx> wrote (in <nhfeh11mpokcqb78j14uuhubqpntghj544@xxxxxxx>) about 'Any DIY balun info for S-video to Cat5 conversion?', on Thu, 1 Sep 2005:

I'd like to see if it would be acceptable picture quality wise to run s-video from a podium over ~125 ft of Cat5E back to a video switcher that feeds a multimedia projector.

Try it with a 125 m 'throw-out' cable. If you can't get NE592 any more to give you a balanced output, there are plenty of fast dual op-amps that will. And the standard video input these days is a differential input with one leg grounded, and your balanced signal will be quite happy with that.
