Running external CAT5 cable

<< < (2/2)

chenks:
yeah last time i did this i just used normal cat5e cable.
the run was the same as where satellite cable went, so i just cable tied it on to the sat cable.

dee.jay:
I've had external CAT5 running up the house since... 2010/2011? Still fine. I used external grade stuff.

Chrysalis:
In a house I lived in with a friend about 20 years back, I just fed a cat5 down the outside wall which served its purpose for the 2 years or so it was needed, everything worked fine, it definitely survived snow and rain.

benji09:
 I have had cat 5 cable on the outside wall for many years. It has been painted over a number of times, so I can't see why it should fail due to weathering or sunlight..................
