Ensure to adapt proper waterproofing methods to protect the cable connections from water and

Place all cables and the adaptor in dry and well-waterproofed environments, e.g. waterproof
boxes. The purpose is to prevent moisture accumulation inside the camera and moisture
penetration into cables.
While running cables, slightly bend the cables to a U-shaped curve to make a low point (as
demonstrated in the figures below). The purpose is to prevent water from entering the camera
along the cables from above.
