Glenn54 0 Posted August 10, 2017 https://www.lorextechnology.com/search/?Dy=1&Nty=1&Ntt=LNR341C4BW* Hello to all. I recently joined up here and after doing research, decided on the Lorex system in my link. So far, I have plugged everything in and test run it inside my house to make sure I get the feel of it and everything's working OK before I setup outside. 2 questions I have so far is the Cat5e cable that I received is rated for indoor use. 2 of my camera locations will have about 20ft of cable tucked along my siding outside so I wasn't sure if I should be opting for outdoor rated cable. Also, 2 camera locations will not be under any eave or covering and I was wondering if rain sleet and snow might shorten the life of the cameras. Thanks in advance for any input Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
