Conduit Suggestion Needed

I need some advice on running CAT6 riser cables. The only feasible solution seems to be installing a conduit along the exterior wall to connect the structure on the left to the main building. Unfortunately, boring straight through the walls is not an option for us.

I noticed that someone has used ENT (Electrical Nonmetallic Tubing) in the upper left corner of the image. Personally, I am skeptical about whether this is a proper use of ENT. The other conduits present are for lighting purposes.

Is it acceptable to use ENT in this context? If it is, it would certainly simplify things. However, if using ENT contradicts NEC guidelines, what would be a suitable alternative for running the conduit? My primary concern is that around 15-20 feet of the conduit will be exposed.

Additionally, would a UL-rated liquidtight conduit be an acceptable option?

Thank you for your input!

When choosing conduits for outdoor lighting fixtures, follow these 5 steps to find the perfect one: determine the location, check for weatherproof and explosion-proof requirements, confirm adherence to electrical codes, choose the right conduit size, and consult with an expert.
