Arlo Q Plus PoE adapter

[mytzlplik]

Looking at the Arlo Q Plus but all the pics show a big ugly PoE adapter on a short cable to the camera. I currently have Logitech Alert cameras wall mounted with the Cat6 cable going into the roof space back to a PoE switch.
I'd want to mount these in a similar way but that big ugly PoE adapter looks huge. What are the options for wall mounting these cameras without having that showing? Why couldn't it just have a network port on the camera?
Big negative for me.

You should also note that the Q Plus uses a USB 3.0 micro-USB connector for the POE adapter.  This means that a simple micro-USB extender (i.e. phone charger extension) won't work.  I'm not sure why it uses this connector, as USB 3.0 speeds are not needed for the 100 Base-T POE connection.  It might not even be a standard USB connection at all.

Can anyone who has seen this camera comment on the length of the cable between the camera and the PoE box?

6 inches from connector to block.

Thanks for measuring. Much appreciated.
Looks a bit short to hide on the other side of a brick wall. Bummer!
