Someone cut my one of my cameras, can I repair it or should I just cut my losses and get a new one?C4AE60CD-4675-40F6-91E2-283B06A02018.jpeg

What led to the camera cutting! Need the gossip!
 
Time for conduit and junction boxes.. and more cameras...
 
There wouldn’t be any interference issues? Should I solder or just splice shrink wrap and seal would do?
I have seen a splice where there was no shield for close to 6 inches, and it still worked.
I have spliced them where it's closer to 1/2" of unshielded and had no problems. I would solder to cut down on corrosion.
I had a pack rat problem in one of the pole barns, and they kept chewing the wires. I spliced them so many times
I really wondered why they worked. Eventually the bait worked and the rats were gone. Then I replaced the wires with
cat 5 and used balum on each end to convert to balanced pair. Works great.
