You could try a simple impedance matching network. The simplest would be a
25 Ohm resister in series between your 75 Ohm driver and the 50 Ohm cable.
You also might look at what Mini Circuits or other vendors have that will
meet your requirements in surface mount networks.

Subject: [SI-LIST] Running analog video on micro-coax
We have an application which requires running 75 ohm analog video over
coax for a distance of 75 Inches.
Conventional VGA cables are much to large and bulky because we need to
run the cable through hinges and cable retractors.
I have seen some micro-coax products from several companies which use
very small diameter cable.
However all of the micro coax products are 50 ohm and seem to be
targeted for digital signals such as LVDS.
One approach I am considering is to use a buffer amplifier to receive
the 75 ohm signal and then redrive it on the 50 Ohm cable.
The only drawback is possible signal distortion from the buffer
amplifier. The signal bandwidth is 100 MHz.
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks - Joel
