You should be able to. The cable is rated for that. I have the cable running on the roof in Miami Florida.

this cable has dual coating and is meant for direct burial. It would just fine

yes you can it ok Its,just make sure the cable is stretch out because it can cause the cable to bend

I would say yes. I wanted some heavy duty cable in the offices I support and this stuff works great. This stuff is thick and well wrapped. I would be completely confident in using it outdoors. I have actually had trouble running it under desks and along floorboards because it is so damn rigid.

Yes, I did this, it survived Oregon winters just fine. I ran it down the outside of my house and then down a fenceline about 100 ft.

Ours are all up under our eaves, not out in weather. The cable should be fine, but I would suggest protecting the connector part.

I did not gnd it as my antenna was mounted in my attic. U can try to gnd to anything metal pipe which is going down to the ground

I ran mine on the outside of the house to some direct wire cameras. I used small clips to fasten it to the siding on the house. They are still working fine after being out therefor over two years. So they should be fine through the attic.

The kit comes with an extension cable that connects both ends of the outlet. That cable is approved for running behind the wall. Your "power cables" would remain outside the walls. The one from the TV goes into the top outlet and a separate power cable goes from your electrical box to the bottom outlet.

the one that comes with it is junk and is only 6 feet....any cable will work....the best thing to do is to go to you old cable box and back feed the wiring thats already in the house...i gotten a house with 6 tv's up and running this way without running one new wire!!! antenna is GREAT when you get it aimed right....moving it a inch in ether direction can make a station come in or not be there at all....make sure its over the roof line unless you know all the tv stations are in one direction...if you go to tvfool.com and type in your address is will show you where EVERY tv station is relitive to where you are so you know where to aim the antenna...also this one is NOT good if the station are over 45 miles the one that comes with it is junk and is only 6 feet....any cable will work....the best thing to do is to go to you old cable box and back feed the wiring thats already in the house...i gotten a house with 6 tv's up and running this way without running one new wire!!! antenna is GREAT when you get it aimed right....moving it a inch in ether direction can make a station come in or not be there at all....make sure its over the roof line unless you know all the tv stations are in one direction...if you go to tvfool.com and type in your address is will show you where EVERY tv station is... » Read More the one that comes with it is junk and is only 6 feet....any cable will work....the best thing to do is to go to you old cable box and back feed the wiring thats already in the house...i gotten a house with 6 tv's up and running this way without running one new wire!!! antenna is GREAT when you get it aimed right....moving it a inch in ether direction can make a station come in or not be there at all....make sure its over the roof line unless you know all the tv stations are in one direction...if you go to tvfool.com and type in your address is will show you where EVERY tv station is relitive to where you are so you know where to aim the antenna...also this one is NOT good if the station are over 45 miles « Show Less

Ray: Just go to Home Depot and purchase a 15' length of 1 1/4 " diameter aluminum pole. Any pole will do however. This antenna works best in the attic. Just mount the pole on the crossbeam somewhere and then aim it in the appropriate direction. In my case I bought a $10.00 pre-amp to give the signal a boost but I probably would not need it. It sounds like it will be outside. That's ok. Just a utility pole of some kind will work. I assume you will anchor it with a cement foundation, which is why mounting it inside(in the attic)works better. It is a Great Antenna and delivers HD pictures. You save money too. You won't need Cable or Satellite Dish anymore. Ray: Just go to Home Depot and purchase a 15' length of 1 1/4 " diameter aluminum pole. Any pole will do however. This antenna works best in the attic.

Yes, I had mine installed inside my attic and I was getting about 50-60 miles. If you mount outside and high enough to clear trees and buildings you will be surprised!

my cable is from a room in the middle of my house, up into the attic and then outside to the back so maybe 30 feet. I would expect the POE distance to be based on the repeater / power unit specs not the cameras specs.

if you have enough room to safely put in your breaker box you probably can, not sure if the manufacturer would recommend it, but I have two outside breaker panels and put one monitor in each panel, the Tx is in each box to stay out of the weather and I can pick up the signal on the Rx anywhere in the house. I know some panels get over crowded so that's why it could be a safety issue trying to cram the Tx into a tight panel, and i'm sure it reduces the distance the Rx can pick up the signal.

Dear Natalya,Thank you for your question regarding our BlueRigger 35 foot HDMI cable! The cable can be run behind the wall, but doesn't require a pipe like an electrical cable. We recommend keeping the cable away from any electrical cables to prevent signal interference.Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions.Thanks,BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

Our house is wired for cable. Since we use the cable for internet, the satellite installer didn't use the existing cable wiring. You could easily do the same.

Number 2's answer is great. It is an electrical device. Don't forget the cable has to get from outside your home to inside your home. Drill a hole, etc.

Yes. Attic possibly but you won't get nearly the signal. Of you're within 20 mules then yes indoors but it's a better signal outside

Hi Martha,If you can avoid running this cable across a rooftop then I would greatly do so. I would opt to run the cable underground if that's a possibility.The exposure to all elements on a rooftop is extreme, and even though VIVO does make a cable that is "outdoor" rated, I would still run the cable through a conduit. Ethernet cable is much more sensitive then Coax cable, so please don't look at both as equal in durability.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I live in a two story town home. I simply mounted it in the attic at the highest point possible. My town home has a central wiring box with a splitter that connects TV outlets in all the bedrooms and the living room, so I just dropped an RG6 cable from the antenna into the central box, and connected it to the splitter. You can also mount it outside on a pole, which is supposed to provide even better reception. For me, mounting it inside, on the wall would have been tacky. I wanted it out of site, so the attic was perfect. If you do not have access to the attic, and your apartment is not prewired with coax cable, the only thing you can do is mount it on the wall behind your TV.

Kyle, I have even run this type of cable outdoors without a problem for short runs.....50'. I would have no issue running it through a crawl space provided their are no "critters" to chew on it. "Warning" critters love the plastic to chew on especially mice & squirrels!
