I'm about to add a security camera to the back of the house which will

any kind of trunking/conduit/whatever that I can fix to the (brick) wall
to take the cables and tidy things up? It would need to be around 15m
long and accept internal and external corners.

Er, conduit? Screwfix, Toolstation, etc. For that sort of length, it
will be neater to use the "proper" stuff.

I had seen conduit but wondered if there was any sort of specialised
product.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'proper' stuff.

Trying to further my education here.

Most plastic trunking tends to be white which if you have a white rendered wall would be quite unobtrusive but for any other type of wall I would use black PVC conduit, plenty of corner components to make neat internal or external corners. For 4 CAT 5e cables, 20mm diam conduit would be adequate.


Brown and red trunking is available.
