[paul777 0]

hello please can you help

just bought 2 CCTV cameras swann

these are WiFi just power lead needed

but the camera is also attached to the Ethernet connection box

tested cameras all working fine now for a week but

its time to attach them to the out side wall but

this Ethernet is a little bit to big i think i`ll need like a 20mm drill bit

to drill the hole up a ladder ammm don't know !

so my question is i don't really need it so can i cut it off

so i only have to drill maybe a 10mm hole if not less to pass the power cord though

i do understand by cutting this cable my warranty is gone

thank you Paul

Hi. You can get cable management boxes for Swann cameras.

 

The problem you have if you cut the data cable is if you loose camera settings like the IP address you will not be able to reset.

 

Cameras connect to cable box ie becomes box lid.
