A video system comprises a camera, an enclosure, and an interface system integrated with the enclosure. The interface is configured to receive, on a link external to the enclosure, video captured by the camera and transfer the video on a link internal to the enclosure. The video system further includes a conversion module and a processing system. The conversion module is configured to receive the video on the internal link and transfer the video for delivery to the processing system on another internal link which has a different characteristic impedance than the first internal link. The processing system is configured to receive the video on the other internal link and encode the video. The video system further includes a monitoring system which is configured to display and store the video.
