Get started
Once Nest Cam Outdoor is set up on the Nest app here are a few things to consider:
●
Check with your phone to make sure the outdoor spots chosen for Nest Cam get a Wi-Fi signal.
●
Discuss the path of the power cable on its way to outlet with the customer.
●
Keep the camera out of direct sunlight. The glare can distort video and overheat the camera.
NEST CAM OUTDOOR INSTALLATION
Tools you’ll need
Many of the items you’ll need are included in the box as
seen in the graphic.
To install the wall plate and cable clips, you’ll need a Phillips
screwdriver and a drill with a 3/32” bit.
If you’ll be using the wall anchors, you’ll also need a 7/32"
masonry drill bit and a hammer.
Options for plugging in the camera
Nest Cam Outdoor’s total power cable length is 25 ft (7.5m). You’ll need to plug it into an outlet so it
can stream video 24/7 and send alerts. You have two options:
Use an outdoor outlet: The easiest option is to plug it into an outdoor outlet. We suggest they install
a lockable “while in use” cover over the outlet to prevent the camera from being unplugged.
Use an adapter: If there is no outdoor outlet, you can use a light socket adapter, which converts a
porch or landscaping light into a power outlet.
