I've wondered about this too.

I think the magic camera interconnect is CSI/CSI2 and it's not really flexible enough. You either have really short copper interconnects, or unavailable fiber interconnects.

What would be cool is if csi to ethernet were a thing. either low latency put-it-on-the-wire or compressed. I don't know, maybe it is. But make it a standard like rca jacks.




You can buy kits that send video over coax including power for somewhat reasonable prices:

I haven't tried them, but am considered them for project.


It is possible to extend CSI through good HDMI cables https://www.robotshop.com/en/arducam-csi-hdmi-cable-extensio...
