Another method I have used with great success is to mount a regular electrical PVC junction box on the outside wall. Then drill out a 1-inch or 2-inch in the center of this junction box. On the inside wall adjacent to this outside PBV box mount a similar PVC junction box.
I would run a Flex or solid tube between the two mounted boxes. You can run many cables thru this idea from the inside to the outside all weather tight. These boxes come with any number of ports to use...
You can use all different sort of these PVC junction boxes where I was routing DC cables and such. I would mount PVC 3/4-inch tubing and route all this to just about anywhere. All out of site or at least neatly dressed in around the wall or what ever...
On the outside you can add connectors etc to the weather tight lid...
The also have weather tight lift covers as well...
Like said all of my BATTERY cables routing to my to/fm my tongue mounted battery banks use this idea to route all my 12VDC cables through PVC flex lines all over the trailer.
On my off-road POPUP CAMPER I pulled all of my wiring that went through the trailer floors under the various cabinets and did the same thing here. Now all of my DC Cables are well protected going thru the PVC flex tubing and junction boxes mounted under the trailer floor.
Something like this trailer floor plan shown in blue here...
Go walk around places like LOWES or RADIO SHACK and see whats available with installing your cables.
