Installing IP cams in old building

[ash_scotland88]

I'm wondering on techniques how this may be typically done.

 

Property is brick/brick and filled cavity.

 

I've read of running the cable in the cavity, which itself has potential for problems with damp and difficulty when cavity is (partially) filled. Obviously there's up to the soffit and into the attic, down into the solum or horizontally to enter at an other point.

 

But in an ideal world the cable wouldn't be on show from outside, both for aesthetics and but more importantly saves tampering with the cable.

 

I'm not sure if I'm being overly cautious/ paranoid to have a channel and conduit in the interior walled, with the cable exiting from ceiling/floor void level. The ceiling will be coming down anyway and other plastering works. Externally it's probably an ideal height to install a camera or two.

 

So, yeah, any thoughts?
