  • E2 power

    I have ordered two SWM-8 and the E2 expander. My question is on the power connector to the E2. Can this put indoors while the E2+SWM-8's are installed outside? It is hard to tell from the photos, but it appears as if the power connecter is an RG-6. So can I put the power supply inside and run a RG-6 cable through the wall and out to the E2?

    Thanks.

    I received the E2 so I'll answer my own question (since no one else has). The E2 power connector is NOT an RG6. The paper that came with the E2 lists the 'Environmental' as 'Indoors' .... meaning is should not be outside ... I guess. At this time I plan on installing the E2 and the two SWM8's inside a weatherproof box outside. I'll run the power cable from inside the house through the wall and into the weatherproof box. My only concern is that I have heard the SWM8's run hot and I hope being inside a weatherproof box outside does not make these too hot.
