Weller WESD51 has been my go-to soldering station, but if you have money, Hakko is awesome. I also like the Weller heat gun, it comes with a curved deflector for heat shrink. The TS-100 pocket soldering iron is awesome for a tool bag. (Someone also hacked the firmware so you can play Tetris on the 96x16 OLED.)
Paladin (now Greenlee) crimpers are great. I have the 8000 series crimper with the 2699 "HDTV" die. It has sizes for most of the BNC connectors I need to crimp. Also get a quality coax stripper, I have a CST Pro, but I actually prefer the LC CST. Normal wire strippers and a curved wire cutter (like this) are must-haves, too.
Small diagonal cutters are great to have, I have the Xcelite 1178M, but the Hakko CHP-170 are cheaper and just as good.
If you have any fiber, get some IBC cleaners. They have different tips for various ferrule sizes. I usually end up carrying one for LC and one for SMPTE. A fiber scope is nice, but a bit overkill if you ask me. A laser is good enough for most of what I do.
A drill with a long phillips bit is essential for racking equipment, as is some sort of flashlight. I like this one because it has a magnet on it, which is perfect for sticking to rack rails.
Speaking of screwdrivers, a set of precision screwdrivers is handy. A friend of mine has this very expensive set. I have this one from Wiha and it's really good. Plus you get free needle nose pliers.
I've never had a problem with the EZ RJ45 crimpers, at least when using EZ RJ45 plugs.
Screwdrivers: pick up some Klein stuff. #1 and #2 Phillips, plus a few standard flat blades. Get 1 stubby #2 Philips and 1 stubby medium sized standard flat screwdriver. This would be a great set and it's basically what I have.
A couple adjustable wrenches of different sizes.
Some Channellock or Knippex pliers (a few different styles. At least 1 should be needlenose and at least one should be a larger pipe-wrench type.)
A couple Greenies.
Some Xcelite diagonal cutters in a couple different sizes. I also like this particular Irwin set of diagonal cutters. Great for zip ties and cutting cable. I throw one of those Irwin ones in some of my kits too (like my BNC kit has a set of strippers and crimpers plus one of those for cutting the cable and cutting back the braided shield.) It's the perfect multi-purposed size and it takes a lot of abuse. I get smaller Xcelite stuff for fine work on the bench.
A good pair of wire strippers that can do smaller gauge stuff (20-30 gauge stranded.) Get 2 or 3.
A decent utility knife. I just bought a new one, a Stanley 10-788, to replace one that broke. Don't buy one of those it's a piece of shit. Have to use my swiss army knife to depress the lever enough to get into the blade storage. Garbage. I'll be buying another one soon.
For soldering, word is Weller's quality has gone downhill. I don't know. Mine is about 10 years old and has been completely rock solid. Might want to do some research.
Some wire brushes (use 'em all the time on exploded batteries in remotes, sadly.)
One of those BNC removing tools if you don't have one.
Decent hammer and rubber mallet.
A basic level.
Fluke multimeter (toward the lower end of their range is all you need. Don't need precision, just need continuity and basic voltage check for checking power supply rails etc.)
Decent 30' measuring tape.
Decent set of Hex keys.
Socket set. Any Joe Blow set from Home Depot will do.
Cordless drill (I like the M18 hammer drill from Milwaukee if you can just have one, it's a bit on the big side but can handle everything from attaching TV mounts into brick to removing screws from equipment cases.)
Dremel (comes in handy in many last resort "oh shit moments.") Get some extra metal cutting wheels you'll use those a lot.
Wiha set of micro screw drivers for repair. They sell like 8 and 10 piece sets that handle most of your needs. Go Wiha or Klein or something for your screwdrivers (hear Wera is good too.) Don't cheap out you will use the hell out of them.
I have one of these literally just lives on my bench and I like it a lot, along with a decent #2 Philips I have there, it handles 90% of my screwdriver needs without me needing to go to the tool box.
Don't forget yourself get a GOOD set of hearing and eye protection!
Also buy a cheap dollar screwdriver or 2 in the common sizes and let people borrow (and lose) those, keep the good stuff to yourself. (And a cheap tape measure. Those 2 things get borrowed from me the most.
Edit: added more.
Yes RS422 should have no problem being run over Cat6 (should go to 1500 meters). It looks from the spec sheet that the pinout would be 1->1. It uses pins 3 and 8 for TX, 2 and 7 for RX and 5 for reset. All the others are just tied to ground. I have used these before:
https://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-Go-02947-Modular/dp/B0000AOWXP/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1503836231&sr=8-1&keywords=db9m+to+rj45
since they can be custom configured they are nice. Just make sure to keep pins 3 and 8 on a twisted pair and 2 and 7 on one. I would use pin 1,2 and 7,8 of the RJ45.
Does that work? BNC->RCA? Like https://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-BNC-Male-Female-Adapter/dp/B000V1R97U
So the signal is the same as for normal RCA?
Assuming you’re working with low resolution video, you should take advantage of the coax connections. Burn your video to a DVD, connect the DVD player to one of these and use coax splitters to feed to TVs. Depending on cost and availability you may want to make your own cables - one of crimped kits would be useful. You can get bulk coax cable from Home Depot it wherever.
Also check thrift stores and ask nerdy 60-year olds. My dad never throws stuff out and has a box of old stuff like this. This is very old tech and You may be able to find it for cheap.
Something like this then maybe? https://www.amazon.com/Greenlee-Communications-2033-Non-Insulated-Terminals/dp/B000JJJ6B6
We have a few of these Tripp Lite strips (https://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-Outlet-Office-UL800CB-15/dp/B000FBRQZG)
15ft cord 10 outlets 15amp with a switch cover
Couldn't recommend them more. They also come with removable ears if you want to mount them on something like a cart or table.
Although this book ( Video Over IP, Second Edition ) is now over 10 years old, it’s still a decent starting point for learning about video over IP for video/broadcast engineer types. Because of the age there is nothing about ST2110 but I think it would probably still be useful for the parts covering the IP networking topics most relevant to working with video. The author, Wes Simpson, is a leader in the field and I think there may be a new edition but no idea when. I attended a class he gave at NAB a couple years ago and it was very informative.
I still have some small sony DVD recorders that I use. They are harder to find but I run footage into them and they spit out a DVD in short order.
https://www.amazon.com/Sony-DVDirect-DVD-Recorder-VRDMC5/dp/B000SML2BQ
Do I need to get this?
Maybe look into the The SBE Broadcast Engineering Handbook: A Hands-on Guide to Station Design and Maintenance as a place to start.

Use it all the time when I run into HDCP issues
Cheap "patch" cables on Amazon like this:
http://amzn.com/B000ANRS2A
100M = 328ft, $0.40/ft - compare that to Belden 1694A (~$0.64/ft) and then remember it's doing bi-directional video + com, replacing a lot cables.
As for durability, I do mobile production so we're hard on them- always in and out of venues. Occasionally they go dead after a show, but it's so light & cheap you keep spares and replace as needed. If you're doing an install, you'll probably get a really long life out of these.
When shopping for one make sure the pedal actuates the proper electrical contact function you need. For all intents and purposes a pedal is a on/ and off switch. Some pedals are always "on", (Electronically Closed) and when you push them they turn off (opening the connection). Some are the opposite.
My first go around I had some trouble when I purchased a Yamaha FC5 Sustain Pedal, its normally on. I was trying to use it with a simple RTS 301 Belt pack but it was doing the opposite of what I needed, Opens the mic when I plug it in, then kills it when I press and hold, Not all that desirable.
I did some more shopping and for a Hosa Dual- Channel foot switch It features 2 latching contacts that you could use between A and B channel Comm systems. The switches were "normally open" and when you press and latch it closes the connection and turns on the mic.
Sorry for the long post explaining Normally Open , Normally Closed foot pedals.
