No outdoor outlet?
You can plug Nest Cam Outdoor into an 
indoor outlet. This requires some extra 
steps, which may include drilling through 
your home’s exterior wall. Keep in mind 
that you’ll need to know where any in-wall 
pipes and wiring are.
Don’t want to do it yourself?
Nest Cam Outdoor is designed for easy DIY installation, 
or you can hire a Nest Pro. They’ll take care of the 
installation and make sure everything’s up and running.
