Hi,
How safe is it to run ethernet cables on the outside of a building? I want to get an ethernet network to the upper floor of the house. The easiest way is to run a cable from the ground floor through the wall up the outside of the house and into the loft space. I've found some stuff on Google, but most of the sites say that's dangerous to do so because of lightening strikes frying your kit. But I've also found some sites that actually sell weatherproof and waterproof CAT 6 cable, so I'm a bit confused.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
