I use this stuff to fill holes, does a good job at keeping bugs and water out:  ($3) https://www.homedepot.com/p/Gardner-Bender-1-lb-Plug-Duct-Seal-Compound-DS-110/100212441

There is not enough room to make a hole large enough for a grommet that will allow a cat5 plug to pass.  We have about .735” to work with.  You need a minimum of .750 hole and the grommet itself is 1” dia. I could do a split grommet that would just fit the CAT5 but then you will have to install the  grommet with cable filling it and that will be a big pain forcing it in.  The other seal that is already there slides out so you are not having to force a round grommet into the hole. It is easy if the grommet doesn’t have anything going through the center when you install it.
I doubt no one wants to feed the wire through then install the plug.

I've drilled holes in the bottom of the DC SS enclosures, directly below the connectors.  Works well enough for those, it would be a bit more of a pain with the RJ45 connector though since you'd have to install the end afterwards.

    We have recently seen similar issues when using Chuck's surge
    suppressors.  Not sure what changed, the RJ 45s, The jack Chuck
    uses, or my techs but we figured out that it was caused by the
    cable getting pulled sideways in the surge enclosure and the
    tolerance stack on the RJ/RJ jack just not working in our favor. 
    Now we add a zip tie in the little enclosure to force a bend/cross
    in the in/out cable.
    P.S. If you are reading this Chuck we would really really like an
    enclosure with a separate in/out feed similar to the 600SS or
    something like that so the cable can go straight up into the jack
    and not get pulled sideways.

        I've put up alot of the F300, haven't seen any problems.  Bad
        cable or Radio? Did you try a different POE?  9/10 times
        Ethernet seems to be a problem with the termination and/or
        cable.  I've done 1000's of ends, but just the other day I did
        one with one blue and green wire switched, I think that caused
        weird Ethernet problems.  Of course it was the end at the
        radio and not the easy-to-get-to inside connection.
