Hi Geoff,

The Insignia™ 50 foot Cat-6 Ethernet Cable is primarily designed for indoor use. While it can technically be used outdoors, it is not specifically rated for outdoor conditions, which means it may not withstand prolonged exposure to the elements such as rain, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations. For outdoor installations, it's recommended to use an Ethernet cable that is specifically rated for outdoor use to ensure durability and reliable performance.

If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out! -Ed | Insignia Support | https://www.bestbuy.com/site/brands/best-buy-brands/pcmcat1596746025285.c?id=pcmcat1596746025285
