How to run cables through a pole barn wall?
Background: I'm setting up a wifi mesh network and need to get a node inside my pole barn. My plan is to connect an outdoor weatherproof unit to the outside wall, and then run an ethernet cable through the wall to a node inside. Problem: How do I best run both the ethernet cable AND the power cable for the outdoor unit through the metal wall of the barn? I had been looking into waterproof cable glands to do this, however I think they will not work because I don't think I can get the AC plug of the power cable through the hole. I'm confident there is something made for this, but I'm probably just using the wrong search criteria to find it. What is the correct device I'm looking for to put a hole in the wall and run these cables through? submitted by /u/alphabet99 [link] [comments]
