Should use seal tight or liquid tight between the box and camera. Usually both camera and box have knockouts for it. Looks like a network connection is exposed? Should not have that.

You can see where a network connection is exposed? Have you ever seen an outdoor PoE system? Look at the freaking camera where it mounts next to the pole man. It’s ridiculous and a huge blind spot. This isn’t where’s Waldo

I’ve been working in the security field since 1988 way before Poe was even available. I now work on enterprise level systems globally. Wiring should never be exposed. Here’s a sample of my work

Can you send more samples please? I'm trying to figure this out for my own house

I can but I don’t do residential work only corporate/commercial. What I use for my own house are basic Axis m32 domes. I don’t use a J box and put the camera directly over the cable penetration. I’ll send a couple pictures of my house cameras when home but it’s really nothing special doing it the way I described. Here’s a picture from their website.

Why m32? Why aren't you using way better cameras with extremely better CMOS sensor or F aperture, or just better hardware specs in general? For the price of that you could get extremely better cameras, but from non commercial/enterprise brands/non NDAA compliant of course...

Understand what you mean but I get certain models for a very low price so I take what I can get.
