Cabling the Camera

Does anyone have any ingenious solutions to connect the Axis Camera?

I was playing with the pan/tilt kit and accidentally unplugged the camera by tilting too far up. I don't want to put too much effort into building a super-fancy multicable, but I'd like to have something that won't get unplugged or snagged by the movement of the camera. Energy chain perhaps?

Ideas?

Re: Cabling the Camera

Make a loop of the wires about 4" in diameter just below the camera, this will allow for movement.
