Running audio video cables behind walls is similar to running electrical cables but a v cables should be at least a foot away from electrical cables to prevent interference. This is probably the most difficult consideration.

For me my condo is on the 2nd top floor and have access to my attic. Running a security camera in your house isn t for the faint of heart and exposed wires don t look great not to mention the security risk. I plan on going up to the attic drilling down into the space behind my router plugging an ethernet plate into the wall and the router into that then dropping the ethernet between.
