Can this be done in a way that protects against weather?
I would run this from upstairs at one end of the house (at the backside), out of a plated hole (that was used originally for a satellite RG59 coax connection), along the gaps in the bricks of the outer walls, then under the deck, then into the crawl space area, under the house to the other side, to the other end of the house. It would then come though a hole already in the floor (again, originally used for that sat coax) and end up in the family room where the AV equipment is. I would have to add connectors on both ends.
Obviously, the cable can be run, but this is not shielded coax. Is there a form of Ethernet cable designed to be run this way?
