I think it works as well. Except when you want to use that 12V connector in the future you have to dig the glue out.how about a drop of hot glue?
I trim anything that's not an RJ45 or DC barrel connector and leave them.I don't want to sound dumber than usual, but I just cut all those power, audio in, audio out, etc cables off and put shrink tubing over the ends of each of them.
I didn't do anything to any of the other connections on all my cameras. Everything is tucked away inside my enclosed soffits. I didn't do anything with the extra wires on my previous camera system either and they were all working perfectly after years of service.Yikes - I’m only just getting started with a few turret cams installed under soffits, but I didn’t do anything to the unused connections. Seems so logical to at least wrap them up, feel pretty silly now. Spent bunch of time making sure the rj45 connection was perfectly terminated, covered in grease, electric taped, silicone taped, etc. and completely disregarded everything else. Guess I can open the junction boxes back up or at least address in my future installs.
Does anyone just leave these connections uncovered?
