I suspect there is a bit of infromation missing here. How do you display
each camera on a single display, sequentially with a switcher or
simultaneous with a quad split box (up to four...)

That isn't the best way to do it. You could try daisy chaining with a 75
ohm termination at the last device. But that relies on the intermediate
devices having high impedance inputs, they probably are. A video DA will
work but costs more.
