Not weatherproof. No warranty

I had one fill with water, even when properly installed tight. If you're going to mount these outside, mount them horizontally and try to put them in a separate enclosure or use some sort of cover to keep out driving rain. Axis considers this a consumable part so there's no warranty. Think of it like a fuse. If you trip it, the thing not going to work no more. Toss it and buy a new one. That's the Axis motto. No right to repair, no parts, no way to open it. Just toss it and buy a new one.

Appears well made and is easy to use.

I installed two of these on network cables serving outdoor cameras. The devices are six or eight inches long. There is a white plug in each end that is removed prior to use. The metal nuts fit over an RJ45 connector. A split rubber grommet goes around the cable and a plastic insert with a compressible end also fits over the RJ45. The rubber grommet then fits inside the compressible end of the plastic fitting. The RJ45 then plugs into one end of the surge suppressor, the plastic fitting with the grommet slides into the end of the device to cover the RJ45 and the metal nut then screws on. As you tighten the nut, it compresses the rubber grommet until it is tight around the network cable. I believe this is meant to be water tight, but I mounted mine under cover, so I don’t have firsthand experience with those well that works. The ground strap gets connected to some sort of ground, but there is no explanation of what ground should be used. I assume this should be an earth ground, so I drove a rod into the ground and connected a ground wire from the rod to the strap. Coincidentally, we had a thunderstorm with some very close lightning a day or two after I installed this. The camera reset after one Very close strike. It came back on after a few minutes and appears to work well. However, I was on site a few days later and my Companion Recorder had a flashing red light and was beeping. I have not yet looked at it to see if the two events are related. The network cable runs from the surge suppressor to a 60W PoE injector and then to the Companion Recorder. The PoE injector still works fine and the Companion Recorder is powered through a UPS which also has surge suppression. So the two events could be unrelated.
