Frigate Camera Errors

So I’ve noticed in my Frigate logs that I have the following errors every 10 seconds on one of my cameras. Any thoughts on what the cause could be?

Camera is disconnecting. Either power or signal issue

OR

Problem with video stream. Look elsewhere in log for signs of trouble.

What type of camera is this? Model?
