Step 3: Waterproof and Connect the Cable(s)
The camera and the pre-installed network cable (pigtail) are resistant to salt, water, weak acid, alcohol,
oil, grease and other common solvents. However, users must ensure that the cable connection and the
network side cable itself are also protected from different environmental factors.
Using Waterproof Tape
Regardless of the shape of the camera cable connector, the simplest way to waterproof to connection is
by using the waterproof tape.
Connect an Ethernet cable from the network side to the Ethernet port of the camera and wrap the
connection with waterproof tape to complete the installation.
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.
