if it is mounted under awning of my house, do I use the outlet on my porch or what?

I would advise you plug this in somewhere that is securely inaccessible, either have it directly feeding inside your home or some kind of box by the camera with all wiring covered and out of reach, don't want someone walking by out of sight of your camera, pulling the plug or snipping the cable and disabling your security.

Do you have a plug that is nearby? I have mine mounted on the side of my deck and I use the outdoor outlet that's on the back porch. It's about 10 feet away from the camera so I purchased a 10', 12V extension cable for the camera.

That would not be a problem. I would make sure it is in a weather proof box for the outlet.

I would advise not too as the power pack is not weatherproof, If possible install on a j-box with a weatherproof enclosure.

You can use an external POE(Power over Ethernet) setup to power the camera from wherever you have the Ethernet running from. D-Link DWL-P200 Power Over Ethernet Adapter

The instructions in the box contains all the details. IIRC, it requires a NEMA 650 outlet with an outdoor cover (if installing outside).

Nope, this is all ya need. I had an electrician mount it and put a new outlet, so I can plug directly to it

I would not ---- it is grounded but it is not built to be exposed to the elements.If it was under some cover like a porch or covered section of a lanai it might be functional but will reduce its useful life.Be very sure in ALL cases you have a properly protected, rated, and grounded GFI outlet!!!

Yes, you can, we have ours outside in our backyard, all you have to have is access to an electric outlet to plug it in. So far it works great!

Also plug into a GFI outlet in the house or a UL-listed outdoor outlet - to avoid potential electrocutions.

I believe you could. I mounted my outside near my deck and ran an electrical cord to it. It works great.

I have mine hanging on a Shepards hook fairly close to the outdoor outlet but I guess an extension cords. No problems with using the extension cord.

Yes. Mine is under the eave of the porch roof and works great even it triggered by a remote motion sensor. However, it needs an electrical socket to plug into. Also, it's not very loud over 70 feet and it must be kept dry.

The unit has three prongs that plug into the wall outlet. It probably could be used with the proper three-to-two prong adapter.

Install a lug with the screw that holds the wall plate on an outlet. That screw connects to the electrical box which goes to the building wiring ground which SHOULD go to earth ground. There are ways to find out how good the connection to ground is if you are unsure about it.

Basically just some simple anchoring hardware - Really depends on what the back porch and the light pole is made of will decide your mounting options.However you may want to use something other than the light pole if your local utility gets touchy about anything you attach to their pole. Plus of course stay far away from anything that carries a voltage/current !

This is not meant for exterior application so I would not use it, nor plug it in at an exterior outlet.

Connects to outlet box. Need to make sure you have enough room. May need to to cut some of the siding.

It isn't necessary to mount the receiver by the door. It must be connected to an AC outlet, however. Any convenient and out of the way location should work. I have it in my catch-all room (den), where it is not seen by anyone but me.

Local code should require it to be mounted in a gang box because of high voltage (110). You could use a single gang box for the plug side and leave the other side open.

I suggest ordering additional wall brackets and mount them strategically around outside near outlets. Then move to each location as required. Storage is best done inside. Don't store outside plugged in...water and current don' t mix
