HELP - worried about RJ45 connector corrosion. Redo cable?

[traderjay 0]

Hello All - over the weekend, I finally had the chance to install the last Avigilon PTZ at the back of the house covering the backyard. The install spot is 30 ft high so it is quite a challenge for a DIYer like me! fortunately everything went well and now the camera is in action.

 

Unfortunately, it started to snow during the install and I tried my best to keep the crimped RJ45 connector dry before finally connecting it to the camera using the weather sealed RJ45 connector boot. The RJ45 connector is CAT6 rated with 50micro gold plating. I am worried that there are some remnant moisture due to the snow exposure that wasn't properly dried up.

 

Will this lead to future problems such as corrosion? Right now the camera is working perfectly but I know corrosion take a while to set in. So should I go back up and using dielectric gel on the connector to prevent future issues?
