The cable will be fine in snow and water as long as the outer sheath remains intact. After installation, the biggest threat is likely to be UV. This will break down the polymer chains in the sheath causing it to become brittle and crack. If you are on a north wall, it will probably last for years. On a south wall, one good summer could do significant damage. It is hard to say what would be sufficient for you without seeing exactly where and how the cable is to be fitted. If changing the cable in the future is not going to be easy, then invest in exterior grade now and be done with it :-) -- Philip Stubbs -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
