The current v4 CAD replaces the rejected wide/low electronics-box layout with a tall appliance-style enclosure matching the original upright reference: a clean vertical body, large inset front panel, OLED near the top, open blank middle area, two long rounded lower slots, a bottom USB-C female power input, and a right-side USB-A female passthrough power port for the GoPro. It also replaces the v3 clamp/dovetail concept with a simpler strap-mounted field enclosure:

4. **Rear vertical zip-tie pass-through brackets** — two low-profile external brackets, one left and one right of center, with top/bottom anchor pads and long vertical side-access openings. Zip ties feed laterally in the X direction behind each raised bridge face instead of top-to-bottom, while the rear wall stays sealed.
5. **USB power ports** — bottom USB-C female power input and right-side USB-A female passthrough power output for a GoPro USB power cable.
6. **Left-side antenna exit** — prototype 5.0 mm round through-wall IPEX/U.FL antenna pigtail/connector clearance, placed opposite the right-side USB-A port at the same vertical position, with a shallow exterior circular recess for visual/exit relief. Measure the actual antenna pigtail/bulkhead before production.
