What the existing connection tells

A good enclosure helps, but water often enters through a faulty cable entry, damaged gasket ring or an outdoor post that has been mounted on a tilted and wet mounting surface.

The technical choice

Assess exterior materials, protection, drainage, and the location where cables enter. Also consider afternoon sun: heat and direct sunlight can affect both the screen and the camera.

What you let me arrange

Choose an outdoor post and mounting type that are intended for that location. Use a suitable construction or recessed box and let the cable entry be performed so that moisture does not run along the cable into the interior.

Delivery to the door

After installation, check the sealing, image under sunlight, and behavior after rain. Include the outdoor post in the maintenance routine if it is exposed to weather or heavy use.

Frequently asked questions

Is a high IP value enough for outside?

No. Mounting, cable entry and drainage remain decisive.
