    Fish Cat6 through garage

    After some trial and error, I think installing the camera under soffit is probably the way to go. I looked inside my attic few times, I am not sure how to pull the wire from the soffit into the attic. The attic closed as shown in the picture, at first I thought I could just drill a small hole...

    Cat6 cable and RJ45 connector frustration.

    Ok i think after a lot of trial and error, i was able to get my first cable right. I learnt that I need to strip the cable good enough to be able to properly slide the little piece for RJ45.

    Do I need PVC/metal conduit?

    Hello Matt..I was thinking of getting this something like this one. My builder has it installed for HDMI and worked well for me. My thought if I get this one then I can just tap is on the side of the boards in the attic. Thoughts?

    Thanks @windguy. These are roll-up garage doors. This is a new house that we just moved in about 2 months ago, I am not sure if the keypad has two wires running into it, I can check it. I plan to start with 4 camera's. Cars will be parked inside the garage unless there are over night guests...

    Fish Cat6 through garage

    Appreciate your feedback. So in my case it has to go back in and then up, like you said i could drill from outside but then it will enter into the garage and then i will have to pull it up from there, I realize i could use some conduit or something to conceal the cable in garage . Do you have...

    Fish Cat6 through garage

    Yeah I was about to reply you , you are spot on that is indeed for lightning protection. So the soffit is going to be about 12 feet I think, I will be trying out different spots once I get my cam before permanently mounting it, but that is a good option.

    Fish Cat6 through garage

    I will most likely be installing a Camera right under the top of the garage as shown in the pic. My thought is I would may be use a foot long drill bit and drill a hole starting from outside of the garage such that it goes into the stud in the attic and then fish the Cat 6 cable through it. I...
