Our family recently purchased a new home, with a unique (for the area) Mansard/French style roof. Now that we're settled in, I'm in the process of planning for some PoE cameras on the front and rear of the home. In an ideal situation, I hope to run the cable up through the soffit into the attic, but I don't know what to expect with this style of roof where the exterior room walls are actually part of the roof design. I definitely don't want to start drilling if I'm going to be fighting fiberglass insulation in the upstairs bedroom walls.
Will trying to pull cable up into the attic be a giant pain in the rear, or even be possible? Maybe I'm answering my own question!? Or, should I just plan on running the cable where the soffit and siding meet, possibly finding some paintable/stainable conduit to hide the cable?
Hoping some seasoned veterans can offer a bit of wisdom here. Thanks in advance...
