    Hi, I need to hook up outdoor cctv cameras. Using Cat5, for video only, (powered locally) max 200M. I was told there is an outdoor grade cable, looked around and price varies from €61+€7 del online to €130 in a shop. All say are "outdoor" but wondering is there a technical term to make sure I am getting the correct cable? Have ordinary type there at the moment but giving trouble,mind you it is not secured properly. Thanks
