The preferred wire type is simple twisted pair. Doorbell wire, a pair inside CAT5/6 cable, etc.
Shielded wire is OK but attaching the shield at only one end is best practice. This is especially true when cameras are powered from a different source than the controller which could lead to AC current flowing through the shield.

Alesan paling umum kaméra teu ngabales controller nu Visca ID # dina kaméra teu cocog Visca ID # diatur dina controller nu.
The second most common reason is that the wire polarity is reversed. Some 3rd party cameras follow a + to – rule which can be confusing. This is why simply swapping the connections at one end of the wire is worth trying when an RS485 system does not work.
