Chuckle. I have about 50 feet of cat-5, the rounded blue stuff, strung in 
a chinese handcuff on each end of a suspended run from a corner of my 
back porch roof to the apex of a 12x16 shed up on the hill which has 
some of my cnc machinery in it, been there since about 2002, and has 
survived a 112 mph direcho that took 4 of our 40 foot pine trees down 
and did $18000 damage to the house in 2010.  And its still there, 
logging no errors, right now in 2019.

You greatly underestimate the durability of that stuff.
