NOTES on using Ethernet cables:

For outdoor installations, it is recommended to use

exterior-grade

Ethernet cables (CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6); ordinary Ethernet cables are only designed for indoor use and may deteriorate quickly when exposed to outdoor elements.

Exterior-grade Ethernet cables are waterproof and do not require a conduit.

CAUTION:

If the camera will be installed outdoors, be sure to waterproof the cable connection by enclosing it inside a junction box or wrap it using a moisture-sealant tape, such as

3M PRODUCTS Core Series 4-1000

(not included in the package) or equivalent.

See example below.

For other waterproofing methods, see
