I have a Raspberry Pi 4 and that camera module kit with a camera and two IR emitters. I also have one of the metal camera cases with a PoE Hat inside of it. I want find some case I can mount this in so I can put it on an outside wall (so waterproof). It needs to be able to receive an Ethernet cable for data and power. Ideally, I would prefer if only the camera and IR emitters themself go through the wall and reach outside so the Raspberry Pi 4 can be mounted on an inside area on the other side of the wall. Thus, it will only be able to travel the distance its short ribbon cable goes. Any idea what case I can use? The wall is roughly 1.5" - 1.75 " thick.
I have two ways I am considering mounting this.
1) I want to put up a motion sensor light anyway so maybe I could modify some light to fit the camera inside of it. It has to be wide enough to fit both the camera and the IR emitters.
2) If I can't find a motion sensor light I can attach this to then find some type of second encloser I could use for this.
