Clamp together waterproof Box - Attempt #2

So now Roger has solved his problem, which seems quite different from my original question,perhaps we can return to what I was originally asking !!!!External I/P cameras have a short umbilical cord with a power connector, areset button, and a CAT5 socket, all too short to get into a building andare thus exposed to the rain etc.Up until now I've used a bit of 50 mm sleeving with everything poked insideand the ends turned over and held with ty-wraps. Doesn't look professionaland is not really storm or spider proof.The various bits are obviously too large to get through a waterproof cablegland, so is there some sort of two part shell box that can be clamped roundthe bit's to keep out the weather?(Request prompted by yet again having to climb the lamp post to dig the willlife out of the cat5 socket !)A telecom in line box was suggested (before the thread got hi-jacked), and looks ideal but wasn'tquite big enough to house the CAT5E in line socket and associated plug.Any further on topic suggestions would be appreciated.Andrew
