That is quite neat ([W5500-EVB-Pico](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/w5500-evb-pico?variant=40036706648147)) but there is insufficient height to fit inside the enclosure as things stand. It would need an add-on board such that the Ethernet board could be fitted upside down.

If someone had the wherewithal to create a 3D Printed enclosure for the TX4, it would make this feasible.
