I'm trying to find solar connectors that pass thru the walls of a box - like these in the photo. I can't come up with the right name to find them to buy them.
What do you call them?
Thanks,

I considered taking normal MC4 connectors, drilling a hole in a junction box, and putting them on. That may be my quick disconnect for my Portable solar panels I will be setting up with the RV.

I like those Power Entry connectors better, because they appear to protrude into the J-Box less. With the 6" X 6" J box, a 1/4" or a 1/2" means you can fit more into it.

Another idea I had was to run 2' to 5' of cable out of the J-Box and put the MC4 connectors there. With what I want, that would probably work out best.
 
An Outback or Midnight box someone posted pictures of appeared to just have MC connectors with gland nuts such as these mounted through holes:


The nut for the cable gland doesn't have a gasket around the threads. Their application was bottom of a 3R enclosure, so not a problem. If you need it to be water tight, add an O-ring.
 
Amphenol H4/UTX is what I need.
The numbers for the 10G bulkhead/panel mount H4 connectors is:

Male: H4CFM6DI
Female: H4CMM6DI

Here is the number sequences:
