Step 2: Waterproof the Ethernet Cable
If the camera will be installed outdoors, ensure that the cable connections and the network
side cable itself are protected from water and other environmental factors.
Use the bundled cable gland for the Ethernet connector and use waterproof tape to protect the
other cable connection. An optional Junction Box is available for purchase, contact ACTi sales
for details.
