I have a sony action cam HDR AS15 that I mount atop a 23' pole. It has live HDMI out so the intent was to run an HDMI cable from the camera down to my HDMI vest mounted monitor.
The problem is the signal won't carry past about a 10' cable. It worked ok testing inside but once outside in colder temps the signal was lost.
I really want this to work.
I can probably get by with a 20' cable since I rarely need to hold the pole to max height.
Would a redmere cable be able to push the signal so I can accomplish a longer reach around 20'?
Possibly the action cam is the weak link with a weak output. I don't know.
Another issue is the action cam has micro HDMI so that means I'll probably have to use a micro to full size HDMI adapter which can also lesson the signal strength.
And yes I know the AS15 has wifi but around 15-20 feel it is very flakey and usually just gives random freeze frames.
