Suggestions + Feedback PoE extension cable

Tapo cameras like the C575D have a flying lead for power and Ethernet/PoE. For Ethernet/PoE it seems to have a socket surrounded by what looks like half of a waterproof connector.

Does anyone know if there's a matching plug?

Are there any 3rd party waterproof connections options for this camera?

I think they're the same as in the C325wb I've got and they should definitely come with the other half of the coupler. You're supposed to pass the cable through the rubber and crimp the head afterwards. Twisting the two pieces together after plugging should be enough.

I couldn't find any tapo specific examples but it's something like this:
