I have an outdoor wifi dome camera that I want to power, but the power source is on the other side of the wall, in the garage. I have several other cameras that I want to place in a similar fashion, powered from an outlet inside the garage, or some other method maybe.
How do I power this camera without breaking electrical code? I'm using it as wifi rather than ethernet, but it does come with a POE ethernet option too, so maybe that is one way to power it. It may also have direct wire option. Right now I'm powering it through the power cable, going through a wall. I prefer not to put an outlet outside because it doesn't look nice and also don't want it to be tampered with since it's powering my camera.
