I agree the oozing gel can be a mess, but it should be nonconductive and have no adverse effects to an Ethernet port.
Years ago I found an eight port Netgear switch nearly flooded with the oozed gel mess. Didn't seem to affect it in the least.

(sometimes he has it with Gel) We use it for most of our outdoor installs, its been working well. On a side note, as policy we now prefer to select non-Gell Filled. We found it unnecessary (If actually not burying cable in ground), because the gel usually just ended up oosing out over time causing failure of Ethernet connectors, or a mess dripping inside premise at terminations. Basically we predict that radio solutions without gel-filled would end up with a longer life without maintenance using non-gel filled.
