Police believe a string of nine robberies in Edina have used this tech.

      As long as it’s not 100mbps ethernet on unshielded cable, that’s the absolute worst for RFI.

        Sure, but still harder to do than wifi

          The issue with 100mbps ethernet is than it interferes with HF and VHF radio.

          It would certainly be possible for radio to interfere with ethernet, but I’ve never knocked mine out even with 100 watts.

            Sure, but the topic is “rf interference of your camera feeds”

            You CAN interfere with Ethernet, but it’s much harder to do, as evidenced by your 100 watts

          As long as it’s not two children with cups attached to a shoestring, that’s the absolute worst.
