Each camera is linked to the junction box via a 4-core cable. Two of

signal appears to be almost non-existent...

Did you also pickup the Ov (ground) for the camera and connect it to
the shell of the phono or just the "video" wire to the pin?

In this case they are transmitting a signal over more than 40ft of
cable.

I wouldn't expect as much loss as you are reporting, loss of HF and
reduction in level maybe but not to hardly visible levels.
