Hello,
I had a DVR security system installed in my house 2 years ago.One cam is up a tree in the back yard and it stopped working.I climbed up the tree to check the connection, the power connection is okay but the video connection is rusted and ruined and I had to cut it out. Now I have two wires that need connectors and then need to be spliced together. The cable that runs from the house is like a thick cable TV cable. The other one, the one from the camera, is much thinner, and the connector was like a stereo plug. What=92s the best way to splice these wires considering they have to survive the rain and cold?
I know I could buy the 2 replacement connectors, splice the wires and wrap them in tape and the plug them into an adapter, but this would be more vulnerable than the connection that just rusted.
Is there a better way? Thanks
