Can this be used outside for security cameras null

Cat 5 cat 5e and cat 6 cables all use the same connectors. So anything you can use cat 5 for you can use cat 6. Cat 6 is rated for higher bandwidth due to slightly superior construction. If your installing cable in walls, your required to use cat 6. Hooking up power over ethernet cameras, youd be best served using at least cat 6 cable. You can run it over longer distances without as much signal degradation as compared to cat5.

Outdoor use is not recommended for this network cable.
