IP Cat5e patching at camera

[mattmbr2005 0]

Hi all!

 

Just wondering if any of you have found a good way of terminating cat5e at your cameras if you cant hide it in a false ceiling?

 

Most large systems I would have a patch bay under my switch, run cat5e out to camera locations, terminate in a face plate and then use a patch lead into the camera.

 

But what do you guys do if its a solid ceiling / can't hide face plate?

 

I've had to use the odd enclosure before but it looks messy next to an IP camera....

 

Thanks

Matt

Terminate the camera end with a RJ-45 and run right into the camera.
