Re: How to run power cable to camera in a code compliant way?

I am not telling you that you can't keep it the way you have it.. I am going to guess that unless you have a gaping hole though your wall I am not sure why your Insurance would deny a claim... What I will tell you however.. If there was a fire and you didn't do at least as I said about Fire blockin...

Re: How to run power cable to camera in a code compliant way?

Isn't there something that'll convert power from an electric outlet into a POE? That way I'll be able to power my camera from the electric outlet and run the POE wire through the wall, assuming there's no problem with running POE wire in the wall?
