Unplugged 5 pin cable found by driver's seat

[Patten]

2021 3051 E450: I found this cable on the floor under/behind the driver's seat. It runs under the trim next to the door. 5 pin, circle female plug with a screw lock. Label on cord says "174# 2359 BMW Cable". At least 6' of cord sticking out. TV is overhead, unit has power driver's seat but I can't find any obvious male connectors in this general area. Does anyone know what this cable is for?

Safe travels and happy camping.

That should be for a backup camera.

I can confirm the back-up and side cameras are working. I can't find anything that isn't working. Just an unplugged cable that seems like it should plug in somewhere.

It’s definitely for some sort of a camera.

Good to know it is for a camera, thanks. All 3 cameras are working, so maybe it is an extra or not is use. This is feeling like Ikea's unofficial slogan..."We throw in extra parts just to mess with you".
