Want to use this camera outdoors. Can I

No if itis exposed to the weather. You will be lucky if you get it to work period. Near impossible to set up and no help from Trendnet.

I prob wouldn't recommend it. There are cameras designed for outdoor use that are sealed properly from moisture and other potential damage.

It is not weatherproof like camera's intended for external use are. Power connection is not waterproof, and no hood to protect the lens from sun glare. I would not recommend.

If you put the camera in your window facing outside (like mine is) you can use it to capture outside activity, this camera is not weather-proofed and is to be used inside only!

Yes, this cable can be used outdoors. As long as your cameras are weatherproof then you can run this outdoors I have some of this wire and I put it under the siding on my home so it's not really exposed to much weather but it can still be used outside. I don't think it should be exposed directly to sunlight though. I do recommend to run it in conduit if it's going to be directly exposed outside to protect from criminals with wire cutters and the weather in general since it's pretty thin. I just ran mine under the siding under my home so if you have siding that's a good place to hide and protect the wire. Yes, this cable can be used outdoors.

Technically speaking, this is not an outdoor camera. However, contrary to what others may tell you or you may read, it can be placed outside if you mount it where it will not be exposed to direct or wind driven rain. Three of my six FI8918W cameras have been mounted outside for three years and they continue to function flawlessly. They have been exposed to extremes of temperature from below zero to nearly 100F as well as the high humidity of fog. They're doing just fine. Mount your camera on a covered porch, carport, or under a protected eave and it will be OK. Also, try mounting it upside down with a six inch diameter piece of rubber sheeting (available at Home Depot in the plumbing section) sandwiched between the base of the camera and the mount. The rubber will act as a drip shield.

I cannot recommend this cam for outdoor use mostly because it has no infrated filter which does alter the colors. Also, between sunset and rise apparently the sensor for the ir leds will let the picture flicker for quite some time. Even it is not build for outdoor use, if you install it in a covered spot, it will do. At least when you life in northern california. Not sure about temperatures below freezing.

will it work outside. yes. will it handle weather? no. If you are looking for an outdoor camera foscam makes a few good ones that are affordable. They look like long gray/white rectangles. This one will not handle weather, but the other ones will! good luck.

Yes you can, but I don't recomened this camera mine did not last one season.

No. These are great indoor cameras (I have 5 of them) but they aren't suited for outdoor use. I use the Foscam outdoor camera for that and it works great. Agasio makes a good outdoor camera that has the same pan

Sorry, I can't answer that question because the camera that I purchased was installed in South Florida. I can tell you that there does not appear to be any sort of weatherproof housing so it's very susceptible to the elements... hot/cold/wet/dry. The unit that I purchased didn't last a month before failed. If it's indoors it might last a longer. Good luck

Yes, you can but you have to check "user manual" which comes with camera and follow instructions and pictures. Is not that intuitive but can be done.

this camera is not waterproof. i have one on an enclosed porch that is not heated and it works fine.

It has an AC adapter. You would use it outside by plugging that into a weatherproof receptacle (outlet with a plastic hood, for example). The cable entry points to the camera itself (power and wired Ethernet--the latter is optional) are provided with sealed grommets.

It does not appear to be weatherproof. There are many very small outdoor cameras that are weatherproof though. I have many outside. I only use this indoors.

I don't have the outside camera. I have a wireless indoor Foscam camera that I use through my router. It does have to be able to be plugged into electricity. Sorry I cannot answer the question about the outdoor Foscam.

This is not sold as an exterior video camera. That said, if the area is really sheltered from rain (like a porch), it probably would be OK. Really depends on where you live. If you live in a foggy area, I wouldn't use this outside at all. This camera is NOT weather-proofed, so using it outside might void any product guarantee. You can talk OR listen, but not at the same time--I think

These cameras are not intended for use outside. They can't get wet. However you can use them. I have one mounted under the edge of the roof to give it some protection from the weather. I also modified a dummy housing to fit one camera. When you do that you can't use the globe because it reflects the infrared back into the lense

Yes it can as long as the rain or weather does not get to it. However, I would think you would want a more substantial video camera set up for outside security on a regular basis. It is not a heavy duty item. Also, the battery life is very short so you'd want to plug it into an outlet.

The camera is weather proof, as long as it is not exposed directly to rain or snow. Mine is mounted under the eaves near the front door and I have not had any problems so far.
